Hi, I'm a 23 year old guy right out of college in my first real job. I'm nearly positive I'll be getting a C7 of some sort. I'm hoping the rumors are true that the C7 Z06 will be a 7 liter based on the Stingray's LT1 architecture. I'm also hoping they make a Z06 convertible. I know it's unlikely but with the Stingray having an aluminum frame to work off of to start with and GM obviously having recognized the market with the C6 427 convertible I think it's possible. Anyways if the Z06 turns out to be a configuration I don't like I'll get a Stingray convertible. I'm thinking black with Kalahari interior and Kalahari top, Z51 package, 2lt possibly 3lt, manual trans, competition seats, magnetic shocks. I had a 97 Cobra Mustang convertible in high school in that color combo and it would be a throwback to that. My timeline is probably around fall of 2014 unless I have to wait longer for the Z06.
