What am I seeing here?
While playing around with live maps, I found this aerial view of the Corvette Assembly Plant rear storage area. I don't know when this was taken, but some of the yellow cars look like the have a black stripe or "stinger". Any idea what this is?

Photo isn't very clear, so i don't even know what generation we are looking at.
Click on "Birds eye view" and scroll around until you see the back side of Assembly plant - sorry the link didn't go directly to the storage lot.

Hertz had some yellow with a black stripe that they rented. Could be some of those.

I agree that these are most likely the Hertz edition that was made exclusively for the rental car company. They called the model the ZHZ.
It is equipped with special wheels, paddle shift auto, performance exhaust, obviously the yellow paint with black stripping. Only 500 were made.
