Where did you hear that? I don't think the Z06 is off the mark, given that the new C6 performs at the same level as the old Z06. The new Z06 was being discussed almost before the old one went out. In order to keep up with the horsepower war, I would assume that a 500hp target mark is a must and not that excessive. The C5 Z06 was already the best bang for the buck, especially with the way it performed against cars twice and three times its price...the new Z06 doesn't strike me as all that off-the-mark?

"a VERY reliable source, (read into this... Works on VETTE Program at GM) "

I wonder if it's a research car that GM might be tinkering with...not necessarily something that will be coming to market?
