C7 ZO6 up close and personal!

Saw the new C7 ZO6 for the first time...actually it was the first public unveiling outdoors. Damn thing looks great! The rear center part of the wing/spoiler/lip is adjustable. It has slots in it for height adjustment. Very cool.
Oh, the unveiling was at the Emelia Island Concours d'Elegance show. We went up for a few days to check out the scene. It was ridiculous! Damn!
New ZO6:

There sure is a lot going on with the body style.

Not saying it doesn't look good, just that I prefer a more subtle appearance, to some extent.

Looking forward to seeing how the performance numbers look once some good drivers put it on the 1/4 and road course.

That car is screaming for a louder color. I think the gray looks too muted, especially on silver wheels.

Agreed.
I think the red will look great on this car.
And I'm not a big fan of red cars.

Three aero packages... From mild to the above "wild" .

I saw them on the track, along with a CAMARO. They were trailered from Michigan for testing because of the snow storms.

I swear GM is testing an AWD CAMARO, taking a line the C7 Z06 didn't or maybe couldn't follow without AWD ???? Hard to tell, as a lot of cars/ mules tested, never come to market.

If it was "just" a Z28, that car was amazing!

Excellent pictures, thanks for sharing. I think the Z06 looks amazing.

I thought it looked good in yellow, but that color combo is gawd awful, especially the silver wheels.

Waiting to see what performance specs are on it. May have to trade in both cars to get it.

Would like to see it in white, maybe without some of the extra stuff, looks a little busy with it.

Not a fan of the rear, the quad pipes all in a row looks a little too much, the badge needs to be smaller also. Don't mind the lights but I'm guessing die hard vet fans hate them.

Never thought I would like vets, being British and having never liked them, but the stingray and now this have me seriously considering them.
