A few months […] More »

You’ve seen the leaked photos of the supercharged motor that’s rumored to power the upcoming 2015 C7 Z06, but have you seen the leaked teaser photo of the car itself? If the actual Z06 looks anything like this, it’s going to be amazing. If it’s as fast as GM says it will be, well, it’s […] More »
