I have seen so many people improperly posting option package designations in that exact same way (ie: LT1, LT2, LT3 etc.) since that style was first introduced in 2006 (when 1SA became 2LT and such) and I simply cannot figure out how/why that mistake is so common LOL.

It seems everyone is so sure a Z06 or ZR1 variant will be available the first model year, is there any real truth to this? I'm pretty sure you will only have a base model available the first year, like the C6, like the C5, like the C4...

She can certainly ride in mine if she wants, only if 'the elders' permit it of course LOL.

I also wouldn't be so sure that there's even going to be both a Z06 and a ZR1 model at all, the C7 line might only get one of them. It's just too soon to tell.

Your out of luck if your new C7 is a coupe. Amish single girls are only allowed to ride in open vehicles until they get married. The 'elders' don't trust their kids in the coupe versions of their wagons.

Amish in the Lancaster, Pa area use beautiful thoughbred fillys to pull their wagons. Though only 1 HP, these horses are equivalent to an LS7 to them. An industrious people.

Used one in 2020 or so. Manual tranny. Targa. I hope basic -- no navi or electronic suspension gizmos to go wrong. The prior owner will have put in all kinds of desirable options like Honker, Corsa, mild tune, upgraded wheels, etc. for which I will be paying pennies on the dollar.

Before my C7, however, is that C6 I'll be picking up in 2 years or so...

Gotta love used Vettes -- most trouble-free and affordable semi-exotic on the planet

Not according to a certain GM brochure that was supplied to their dealers. No Z06, ZR1, 427 Convertible, Grand Sport coupe or Grand Sport convertible available for some time(their words, not mine).
