The ZF1 option was made available for the last consensus of the 2014's. About 100 MY2014 C7's were built with this option.

So that's technically not new to MY2015 C7's.

NPP now part of Z51 makes sense. Do you save money by not having to purchase separately now?

aka... not much. the 2014 C7 is such a hit that it needs little (if any) improvement.

I basicaly agree, the sales don't indicate any significant changes are needed. Also, I think they've been somewhat busy getting the Z06 ready along with the new 8 speed auto and the Performance Data Recorder.

I did over hear the RUDE DUDE Josh from GM say at Bloomington Gold tell someone else the base price on the 15s will not go up much. He did say the auto tranny will have an increase as well as the Z51 pkg because of NPP and other stuff being added. You will get in 2015 secret upgrades to parts and processes that GM will try to hide in fear of 2014 buyers wanting the better parts installed on there cars as warranty replacements. Make no mistake the 2015s will be full of new and revised parts. This is just something that happens in the early beginnings of a new platform. The 2016s will be better still and pretty much set the build quality standard for the rest of the years the platform is in production.
