The hood scoop looks like they took it from the viper. Does the Z06 still have the rear leaf suspension like the normal C6?

how likely is that 427 motor going to make it into the z06? i have heard that from a lot of other places so i really hope its true. that car is going to be badass. :shock:

well I guess dropping the C5R block in there would solve the problem easily but that's the easy way out.
And I'm sure they aren't going to build a totally different suspension for this car(in response to the question about the single transversly mounted lightweight leaf spring)
If you look at how much is shoved in the rear of a Corvette you might understand why they use what they use.

It's PS yeah but the info seems to be accurate. It's said that the only diff with the C6 will be bulged arched and a hood scoop, so it will prolly look close to this.

Literature? Well one thing is thats its plain ugly, it doesnt look like anything is ever going to match the z06 look.

Rumour.
The only constant is the amount of change between that Photochop and the actual car...

Just so you guys know and I'm sure RC already does, that is just someone from the Corvette Forums idea of what he wants it to look like. It is not at all representational of what the actual car will look like.
