I had to do the eye rub when I saw them. Holy Moly!! I think the rims are 19X12? That's a good 13-14" on the road.

running 325's stock.

The new automobile just came out and gave all the specs. Its one bad *** motor. 428 cubic inches Fordged steel crank. Forged Titanium connecting rods. Aluminum pistons. Magnesium front sway bar. Frame is almost brand new from the C6. God they went in to so much detail that I was going insane. I had to re read some of the specs to make sure I wasnt dreaming. So nice to finally see Dodge Ford and Chevy make supercars with smaller engines and same amount of hp but cheap cheap cheap in comparison. This new z06 is gonna smoke stuff!

That car is going to kick ***. I wish I had money for one of those. I read in my Car Craft I got yesterday and it says it should do a 11.9 stock. And its light 3100lbs. One cheap Supercar if you ask me. Its probaly going to be able to keep up with the best of them for a lot less money.

I was completely set on a hardtop like the 01-04 Z06's...

Still a hot car though... I would still own it, but I know it would look a hell of a lot better as a notchback...

Its still a hardtop, they just made it have the coupe backglass for better airflow and to follow the more strict production class rules that ALMS and other racing classes are setting forth now. I dunno if it'd look better as a notch, but it would be cool no doubt!
