The C7 is going to be an animal.

Dash similar setup to like xts with cue electronics system... No physical tach. It is graphic in middle LCD screen. ALL othe gauges , like speedo, are physical old school real gauges.
I figured it would receive some CUE-inspired hardware. But a digital tach with analog gauges is something I wasn't expecting. Very Ferrari-esque.

My previous posts in another thread described dash exactly as I saw it.

keeks, can you shed some specs on the base model LT1 engine? Is the LT4 on the 2015 specifically for the high performace model (i.e. zo6/zr1)?

And the LT1?
I'm not doubting you, but I think that based off the non next generation LSA would be hard to do? I guess it is possible it will be similar to it, but not an upgrade of it?

Thanks for everything, I am not arguing, just presenting a concern.

I'm just passing info as it comes. No real brains on my part.

Trust me these are legit.

The supercharged lt4 is a 2015 thing.

I am hearing that waiting for 2015 is advisable with engineering tweaks etc.

Thanks! Let's just make it seem like the wait to see the car is even longer

Paul, did you see the double line on the top of the front fender? The camo car is padded out near the base of the windshield , building it up and taking away the curves.

Thanks Keeks! Great info as always. Anyone else notice the black plastic piece at the front of the engine in the bay CAD images? These look like the duct of an air extractor to me. When looking at the latest shots of the cars in New Mexico, it seemed like they all had the hood extraction vents. If this extractor duct is on both the LT1 and LT4 engine bays, seems to indicate that even the "base" C7 will have the hood vents.

Hard to believe it would have skinnier tires upfront than a C5. Not sure I believe it would have the same size tires as a ZR1 either. At least for the base model. Maybe the LT4 supercharged version I could see it though.

If it is indeed on the front fender, what is that silvery item next to it? It looks like cheap plastic!!
