It's personal preference of course, and I'm sure there will be more than enough people knocking down GM's doors to get the first year Z, but I'm not one who needs to be the first on my block to get one. Hell, where I live, people are more likely to get Porch's anyway, so even after three years, I WILL be the first on my block to get a Z!
Also...there's nothing wrong with my C5

Personnally I think this is the cruelest post ever! I mean he is a dealer, and dealers do get information that they can't share, so why in the h&^& come on here and rub it in our faces that he knows, but can't tell.....

I have also known some about the engine and some drive train parts. If the rest of the car measures up this will be one hell of a car.
No one can say more now.

I have a question for you Rick that I think you can answer without jeopardizing your sources. We're all fairly certain of most things like a 7.0L 500 hp V8, Titanium connecting rods, titanium intake valves, sodium-filled exhaust valves larger tires, brakes, etc. Are there any surprises in store for us in January that none of our forum sources have mentioned?

Nobody seems to be saying no to the 427 rumor, Rick
