It will be gone. If not, nothing that a heat gun/hair dryer and a fishing line won't fix.

Looks great.

I would remove the Corvette lettering in back too and just leave the flags.

It looks better when you see it in context...

You're logic doesn't flow. A factory FI car will be engineered to handle the extra power from the start. A forged lower compression engine will make way more power reliably with a turbo setup than slapping a kit on a high compression NA motor. Plus you can sell the supercharger to make some money back.

As for the emblem... placement and design matches the original Jalopnik C7 leak nearly two years ago.

Cool image brings it all together.

Nice, too soon to tell but I am looking forward to more facts to back up the leaked info.

Z06 RB

It looks out of place or an afterthought.

I'm super charged to see the Supercharged emblem. Sorry couldn't help it. Imagine slapping a smaller pulley and a tune for 700HP+ for less than a couple grand!!!

Someone on another forum said he had seen images of the new C7 Z car, and it's wider than the current C7 and more aggressive looking...

He said that's all he could say right now because of a NDA... But did say people will be very happy with the car.

With the rumor that there may not be a Corvette if sales don't improve...do you think we'll ever see a ZR1? Of course, I'm optimistic about sales and continuation of the icon, but I can't imagine a Corvette with a whole lot more factory HP than this one. GM didn't seem to care about HP ratings in the Camaro lineup when the 1LE, ZL1 and Z28 didn't trump the GT500's 660hp or whatever it is...Chevy's dominating "whole car" concept kind of made a joke of Ford's drag strip only Mustang.

I think supercharging is the logical road to super car performance for an interim period if there's any doubt Corvette will even exist for more than 4 or 5 years. Supercharging ensures reasonable power, street cred, and durability at a reasonable price. With wide body, tires and suspension tweaks, I can see GM selling a lot of Zs.

My other question: will there be any kind of automatic...dual clutch or otherwise? I think yes

Imagine the Nurburgring times this thing is going to run! These are exciting times for the Chevy enthusiast!!!

Just because the software didn't stop you doesn't mean you have free license.

The reason I chose a used Z06 over a s/c'd 03/04 Cobra last year was due to wanting a high hp n/a'd car. I am sad to see Cheby take the same step as Ford and put a blower on their performance/track car. The appeal of Ford's Boss302 is nearly 450hp n/a'd in a track prepped car. That is what the C6Z is and an incredible car. To me the 13/14 GT500 is a heavy car with too much hp to put on the ground. I have a friend with 2013 and he said you can blow the tires off in 3rd gear on the highway. He said it's too much to use and is basically wasted. Not to mention unneeded on the road course. This will only make the Z a hot microwave oven of an engine on track. Very disappointed. I would rather have seen a 550hp n/a'd Z.

I sure hope that is a hoax. GM has disappointed me way too much lately, but a F/I Z06 would be the biggest disappointment of all.

i told you that in a previous post, and as is typical, was dissed by some dufus. note that all vehicles in your dealership are going supercharged. its the best way to increase power and not increase engine size, which is more expensive. all r&d is focusing on enhanced aspiration vehicles. its obvious. if you dont like it, im sorry for you, but thats the way life is sometimes. you cant always get what you want (mick jaggard, ca. 1970)
