Away from the bash and finding out what's new for 2018.

What are some of the MOST REALISTIC changes your hoping to see?

I think the ZR1 will be introduced. There will be some new colors, but otherwise I don't expect any other changes to the rest of the line up.

Maybe a few electronic feature updates; surround photo imaging, blind spot monitoring etc.

If the ZR1 is what those spy photos are then I am def going to upgrade. While I do like the my current one, I did get a chance to drive the Z06 at Spring Mountain and I like how it handles. I just want the big boy toy if that is on the horizon. I was on the verge of ordering a Z06 for myself when the spy photos came out so I decided to hold off. Hopefully it will be due out some time soon.

blind spot monitors and heated steering wheel would be nice for us guys that actually drive ours year round.

In only 3 months I hope, HOPE, to be able to get my car home from the dealers. Realistically we are 3.5-4 months away.

Oh how I hate Minnesnowt.

I'm thinking a full carbon fiber console, not just the dash is about due.
