Would it make logical since that they would share performance stats as well? I'm happy with price but wasn't sure if they released these things hand and hand in the past?

$53,400 starting price is my guess.

I know people, who know people.

I'm still thinking $49,900. But it may be wishful thinking.

I see the C7 starting between 53500-55K BASE... I also think we are going to see the Z51 package cost more than the c6 version... I think $4K-5K for z51 on c7... so a 1LT Z51 will cost right around $59K..

2LT z51 will be right around 62,500....

3LT z51 = $66K

Then there are other options and packages... loaded 3LT coupe should be right at around 70K...

My food for thought and I have spoken to a couple people who have given me correct info before.

Exciting! I can't afford a C7 anytime soon, so I'm not sure why I'm excited. But, I just am.

Same here. I cant afford a new C7 for atleast another 2-3 years. So my plan is to pay off my C6 and continue to enjoy it during that time frame. That way, by the time I can afford the C7.. there should be some super awesome deals available.

And I'm excited about the 1pm pricing announcement, because the lower the initial MSRP, the quicker I can get into a C7!

It sounds expensive for a base car, but in reality a 2002-2004 Z06 was a $52k car a decade ago. So mid 50s for all this technology/performance is to be expected. Yes it's the "base" car, but "base" has gotten incrementally improved to the point it'd trounce a standard C5 coupe.

That's exactly the same boat I am in. In 2 years, my current car will be paid off, then its shopping for the best deal out there.

But most of those people are doing time in Federal B&B's or were first round loosers on 'Who's Smarter Than a Fifth Grader' . . . . . OK, one is kinda insightful - he the 'Guess Your Weight Guy' at the County Fair

That's true, but I paid $46K for my '03 Z06...

Harlan just said when asked about pricing timeline, "pretty soon, you might want to come to the 1:30 session this afternoon."
