Default Z06 '02 review

Does anyone know if any of the car magazines reviewed/ road tested the '02 Z06?

House & Garden is the only magazine that hasn't done one, but I haven't seen this months issue yet so I may be wrong.

Seriously, it's hard to pick up a magazine and not find a test.

You say the reviews are everwhere, why can't I find one. If you know a specific site that has the review, please share.

Vette, VetVues, Autoweek, Car&Driver, c5Registry -- take your pick. Most have been a result of the press intro and have been small side-bar articles. I do not believe anyone has performed an offical "full" test as yet.

Correct and I wonder why. I thought a full test of the 02 would be all over the place. Maybe GM knows it won't test out? :eek:

The reason why there arent any new test numbers is because there wont be any real difference in times over the 01's which could hurt 02 sales, especially with so many brand new 01's still parked in lots at 4-5k off sticker, this is why I think GM is holding back on giving their cars out to be tested. I suspected this might happen as it did with the ZR1's, the HP changed but the numbers didnt, I had an 2002 EB Z06 lined up, but passed on it after seeing how GM got the extra power, I'm now just going to wait on a Z06 C6, unless they come out with a special edition 500 hp vette next year, which is pretty safe to say wont be happening.
