Nate, you're missing a third possibility...

3) ZR1 will be revealed soon as the FE car we have seen in various colors in coupe and convertible configurations, with various aero packages and that GM's ME car will be revealed much later, most likely at NAIAS in January of 2019.

LA auto show? That's been my hope. Any chance that ME car makes an appearance at the big show beginning of next year?

If you're wrong, that means the MY 2019 order guide will be out (11/20/17) before the announcement of the ZR1. Does that come under the heading of "Oops"?

Or, everyone could be wrong and GM could surprise us all. They always have a plan.

While I personally would love a SEMA reveal (will be there), I think the chances of that are less than 0.000001%.

The C6 Z06X was shown at the 2011 SEMA show, & the C7 ZR1 seems to be a similar track focused car.

Do you know when it’s being revealed but can’t say? SEMA is usually all about the aftermarket, not the place I’d expect it to be unveiled.

The one thing that I believe to be true about every Corvette person interested in a future model/future generation, and that is we all get an “F” for having patience.

There may not be an official reveal at SEMA, but the car may be there. There is a smaller, private conference for Chevy corporate 10-29/30.
