Agreed...which is why I believe the Dubai reveal will be the Caddy Hybrid ME.

Upon closer inspection, the "camo wrap" is not the style GM uses for masking the Vette. Also the cup wheels and lack of the wing we are accustomed to seeing on ZR1 spy shots don't give me much faith that this is anything more than a joke
I’m sure GM loves that a dealer is doing that....

Maybe he may get a phone call

Rick will not be revealing the ZR1. He's joking and created fake camo and put it on a corvette. He's just being humorous for his blog.

I think a lot of us are getting annoyed with the attempts at humor.
I wish I could say what I do or do not know.

At least you can tell us what you don’t know. How can that get you in any trouble here?

Does anyone else find those attempts to be funny BS???

If I were GM I’d be pissed at a dealer trying to excite everyone with lies and false statements.

It’s just moronic to me that he’s going out of his way to stir the pot...

I’ve never seen any of his stuff until this. Immediately I realized he’s jumping on the YouTube click bait train so he can make a few extra bucks. I find it to be a very poor look.

ICR👍 Dubai WILL be revealing something followed by a US reveal at the LA auto show.
Shelby just revealed the latest at SEMA.

Depending what the Dealers are allowed to release, let's see tomorrow, then discuss our opinions on said hype

I doubt we see anything of real significance this Friday. And it's clear that some represent the Corvette with class and dignity and some do not.

FWIW, I don't have to "see anything of significance this Friday."
I would just like the specs of the ZR1 to be posted.

Some photos and specs of the ZR1 would be all I would expect but at this point, my interest is in the ME. I really don't care that much about the ZR1. I'm certainly not going to buy one with a much more revolutionary Corvette on the horizon.
