Car and Driver came the other day, (I hate that mag, it was free for a year) and they said that the Vette SS or blue devil is going to be called the Z07? I guess we will have to wait and see. Should be interesting. 1meantransam, your wrong, its 5790hp to the wheels and V-tec only comes on when you honk the horn 3 times in a row.
