I'm figuring the Z06 will be in the $60-70,000 range. If its under $60,000 it will be the best bang for the buck....ever. 
I can't wait to see the comparisons to the Ford GT, that will be more than twice the price of the Z06. I think the Z06 will give the GT all it wants.

I think the real reason why it's 7.0L is because it was much easier for GM to hit their 500 hp bogey and still stay within emissions parameters.

I too believe it was simply easier for them to do with 7.0L than it was with 6.4L...either way it totally ROCKS.
