Default C7

I have no idea if this is old news or new but this months MT claims the C7 out in 2009 and will have the same platform as the current Z06, and the new Z06 will be called the Z07 and LS7 supercharged engine, ( nothing new there), but not named the SS or Blue Devil.

The standard Corvette may get the wide fender package before the C6 run is over. Remember they did this with the C4. The wide fender package would not make it a C7. The current C7 arrival date is being leaked as 2012. That would probably slip one or two years.

This sounds about right and it may even slip a year as the C6 did.

A Z07 preceeding the C7....that would make sense because Corvette has to regain the horsepower crown from the Dodge Viper.
