Thanks! I have only heard ruminations about the Blue Devil. Saw a picture of the engine on Digital vettes yesterday.

I like it more than the Z06 maybe with a little more tweeks to the body some accents on the top fender grills it may be a sharp looking car. Now if the car was black and say the top fender grills were accented with red or silver that would look really nice. ANY PHOTOCHOPPERS AROUND TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES!!!!!!!!

Looks like they through a wide-body kit on the already wide C6Z! Not crazy about it. I still don't see why GM feels they need to top the C6Z. They should leave that job to us !

Pssshh... i already have a 650hp Z07!

LOL...not the real one though, the MTI version, but i was wondering why people would ask me (at local car shows) why/how i got the "New Z07" soo quickly??? i was like, no no no, its a custom job...

Now, i guess its real after all... Very interesting...

Come on - that's a load of crap... There's no way the engine can fit behind that ducting. maybe a pancake 4 from VW, but not the LS7...

Not even in Camaro form.
