Thanks PaulLooks like the Corvette brain-trust is really working overtime to try and keep moving forward with the brand until GM gives them the go ahead for the C7.
It's gonna be a long three years.

Thanks everyone! It has been a hectic couple of days but a great event so far. The weather is not looking very good for tomorrow and some of the pictures I planned on taking will be delayed but I wanted to get this information up for the forum folks that couldn't attend as soon as possible. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll try to answer them over the next day or so. Still folks in town and things going on so I'm out the door for dinner with forum members mpuzach and Jay.Mack.
Make sure you check back in the first two posts, I've added some addtional pictures.

Thanks a bunch, again, Paul. This is great news and I have to say that it seems to me many of the things being introduced this year are direct "listening" to the Corvette public. I may not love all of it, but it's all good. Thanks again!

I'd say you're dead-on, Bill. Your point is reinforced when listening to guys like Tadge Juechter, Kirk Bennion, Harlan Charles, and Corvette Plant Manager Bob Parcell talk about how they do things. After hearing them speak at the bash earlier today, there can be no doubt that they're listening to their customers. It's very cool IMO.

Questions if you can get answers:
1. Are the A6 "features" backward compatible via a "relatively simple" software upgrade?
2. The F55 systems: is the ZR1 version still exclusive and all others are the same basic version? OR .....Is ZR1 and Z06 the same and all others the basic version? OR......Is ZR1, Z06 and GS the same and just the base model coupe and vert get the basic version?
I think that's all I have.
Thanks for whatever you can find out.
