Default Any new interior features/colors announced at the Bash? Any other upgrades announced?
I'm sure GM will have some subtle changes (as they always do) for the 2015, has anyone heard anything new that we already don't know?

And any pictures of the new wheel color on a Z51? Love to see a white car with those wheels!!

  • Limerock Green is going away at the end of 2014 production.
  • Daytona Sunrise Orange Metallic is being introduced as a new color.
  • Cyber Gray is going away and being replaced by Shark Gray.
  • NPP will be included on all Z51 cars.
  • The new Performance Data Recorder will be included as part of the 2015 navigation system.
  • There are new machine-faced wheels available for Z51 cars.
  • There are two new interior colors available for Z06 only - blue and dark gray.
  • Exterior air intakes and outlets will be optionally available in body color or shark gray.
  • Black wheels will be available on non-Z51 cars.
  • The driver-configurable instrument cluster will have a couple of new screens.
Those are the high hard ones. I'm sure someone else will chime in if I've missed anything.

Will the 1300 for NPP be absorbed into the existing price......at least until the next price bump? That sure helps to take some of the sting out of the big March increase.

Very neat on being able to get the vents in shark grey or body colored!

Good question. There was no mention of pricing but I highly doubt it.

When prices are released we are more likely to see Z51 priced at $5195

I am wondering if this will apply to the ZO6?

Would be nice if it was "any" body color, ie Black ext. w/CR vents
