Dave Hill has stated that, like the C5 Z06, the C6 Z06 will be a FRC only.

i think thats an awesome idea. i love what the current z06 FRC stands for, but i prefer the "shape" of the coupe. but the c5 z06 shape isn't enough to keep me from getting one any c6 guys that feel like i do will be plenty happy

There is some talk of rear fender flares and a possible hood scoop on the new Z06. Now that would really spice it up! I hope it's a big enough change to really tell the difference from a C6.

That's great. I'd rather have the vert but not having the targa roof wouldn't be a major killer. Any idea when?
