It will still be a while until it is actually able to take delivery, so i am saving now to reap the benefits later.
There will be nothing "unobvious" about the Z06 appearance and the performance upgrades will be desirable, IMHO.
I'd love it to be less than I expect. For what's coming, I just figure that "more" will cost more. Lots more will mean lots more.
If it's a big engine with dry sump oiling? More money. Oil cooler? More money.. Trans cooler? More money. Aluminum frame? More money. Adequate tires and wheels? More money. Huge brakes? More money. Heavier duty trans and diff? More money. Proper seats? More money. Carbon fiber parts? More money. Lighter front and rear glass? More money. Etc., etc., etc.

That is the whole POINT of the Z06. There is no such thing as a fully loaded Z06.

I know that sounds rude, but it is also true. People who say "$xx,xxx.00 fully loaded" know nothing about the current Z06 and what it was tasked to be in the Corvette lineup.

Yes, the ZR1 had a wider, different body, but not "obviously" wider, not "obviously" a more aggressive look without giving it a closer look.
