Future build question
Sorry if this has been asked already. Can I get the high wing and the areo without the Z07 package? Or do I need the Z07 to add those items. Thanks

You can, but you also have to get the carbon ceramic brakes... which cost $8500.
That basically makes it cost the same as the Z07 package. Safe to say they just don't want non-Z07 buyers getting the aero upgrade.

So in order to order the black high wing spoiler you have to order the Aero package which includes the Z07 package? No where so they mention a high wing spoiler as a separate item. Sounds like they want to increase your spending options. I don't need all the other items for street performance. Looks a greedy to me.

I think they must have some supply chain challenges with carbon fiber parts as there is a lot of weirdness and expense with any carbon fiber option. Seems like they are pricing it all really high (either directly or requiring nonsensical options) to try to keep demand down since they may not have a steady supply of the parts available.

Welcome to the realization, my friend.

I'm pretty sure aftermarket vendors will have replicas of the high wing available within a year, if you don't care about front end lift at high speeds.
