Default When will we know '03 Z06 Changes?

Hi,

This is my first post! Hopefully soon I'll be a Z06 owner if I don't croak first from sitting on the fence! :)

When will we find out about what changes are to be made on the '03 Z06? Will it be at the same time they announce the 50th in April?

I wan't to order an '02 Z06 now, but I'd like to be reasonably certain that the '03 model won't have any changes that I care about. ...and no I don't really care about a 50th badge :smash: :smash: and not that much about chrome wheels :lol:

There should be a formal announcement from GM in June. Last year we had accurate information start to trickle in about this time frame.

Eric,

Hi neighbor.... I am in Fullerton also, with a business in Brea. Have owned a couple of Z06 so far and have a 03 on order along with a 50th anniversary car. What information do you need to get off the "fence". Maybe I can help.
Let me know if I can.

I've given up on any hp increase for '03, but I'm still wondering about any minor refinements, such as suspension tweaks or additional interior options on the '03 z06 (such as sport seats).

Chrome wheels may be an option, a higher MSRP will be standard. Find an 02 in-bound or in stock and save yourself at least $500. Probably more like $3500 since discounts tend to disappear at the beginning of each model year.

It was posted on the 'other' forum. Sounds better than most I've heard.
