We might be getting a "high wing" Z06 or GS...
https://www.autoblog.com/2018/05/21/...#slide-7337612
Maybe this is the second coming of the Z06 Carbon?

Not for me but to each their own as the saying goes.

If it comes with a 650 hp n/a v8 shut up and take my money.

They must have had some wings left over...the color scheme reminds of my middle school's " colors". For the 100% track devotees, a good marketing prospective. I would put just a few out to see how they sell. Not the majority's idea of practical for even a corvette.

Since there is no bulging ZR1-type hood on it, I suspect this is an NA.
Possibly the LT1 or some unknown engine.
Also, after examining it closely, IMO this looks like a fully-formed model...notice the Corvette flag logos front and rear are missing (weight savings?).
We should expect an announcement very soon.

Might take away from the ZR1 sales plus if it is an A8 not seeing where it fits in. But with the M7 it may sell a few Z06's it couldn't hurt!
Z06 track wing option!

I wonder how many of the people bitching about the wing have Z06s (or any other model) that are only ever used for low speed Sunday cruising?

Could we see an N/A Z06X....again...GM has my hopes very high...but i'm sure I'll be disappointed. Many insiders swore and claimed information existed that the Z28 Camaro would debut with an N/A engine, and recent spy photos have located a ZL1, without aero and carbon brakes on it...meaning there COULD be a Z28 with an NA engine on the horizon and no one to share it with....unless big wing Z06x needs it!
