Default Anyone see new Car & Driver? Cennt Z06 vs GTR and New Carrera?

I just got this magazine like 2 weeks ago and noticed something.

When they show pics of the black cenn edition Z06 you can clearly see the Carbon ( big ZR1 brakes ) and they even talk about it too . However on the testing specs they list the Z06 with the smaller standard Z06 brakes ( non ceramic) Not the 15.5 and 15.0 the ZR1 has or they show it.
So I wonder if the test brake numbers are for the ceramic barkes or the standrad Z06 brakes.
Anyone notice this ?

Yea I noticed it also.They just have there specs messed up.I have a 12 with the Z07 package and what they wrote about how the Z06 drove is true.IMO I love it,and I like how it drives compared the 06 Z06 I used to own.I don't agree with the outcome,but what they think is important is different to what I think is important,no harm no foul.
