Default So what gets spilled next?

So, as we all anxiously (bored, anyone?) wait for this amazing car to debut, what is GM going to give us a taste of next? Will the HP/TQ be finalized? Will we be given an accurate estimate on the weight (I don't think there will be a "one size fits all" in this category). Will the price finally be released so we can stop thread after thread of guessing and bickering

I know ultimately time will tell, but, I keep coming here looking and hoping that there is a new thread with replies piling up that has some solid info. I figure this gives us something to talk (argue/whine) about until the next bit of info comes out.

I am absolutely in the same boat. I check this site so often my wife is getting curious. I thought I read some where in one of the interviews with GM it was stated that much info would be out in May. This is May even here in Texas and nothing further by GM. This is obviously something conspired by the Bush administration..rrm

I recall something about more news regarding either ordering or pricing at the end of May. I'm hoping we hear about prices soon.

I think the next big thing will be a limited edition flag embossed cheese slicer in the center console.

??????

This thread is pointless. It complains about the spewing of conjecture while egging us on to spew out more conjecture.

It will, according to Harlan's Z06 speech at the Bash covering the rough list of features in 1LZ, 2LZ, 3LZ option groups.

We should have the complete price list by, oh, a month from now. Then I can calculate exactly how many more Dollar Menu meals are in my near future.

For me and I'm sure many others, this is the longest wait ever for a new car. I hope to see pricing, options, and full specs soon. I am speculating we will see more info end of this week or early next week. Although, seeing it in a different color variation will hold me over for a few days.

Already a few of us gave up and purchased something else.

I like the way you think. Hmmm, new tag idea; RAMEN or RAMENZ.

LOL, very true.

I hope some information of note is released soon. This forum has been dead recently, and is absolutely littered with non Z06 related threads. At this point I feel like I'm looking at C7 tech/performance instead of the Z06 section.

It's not completely pointless, we (I use we since you posted as well) just passed a little bit of time

And I'm just trying to see what to expect next, not trying to get people to guesstimate 1/4 times or weight or final power, etc, etc. That thread would be pointless.

All I'm saying is give us more GM. Please
