How to bring down the price of a new Z06? Release a version that puts out over 600hp. Some of the info over on the corvette forums has one of the engineers talking about the test mule being 680hp!! http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dl.../60501021/1024

I wholeheartedly agree on the driving school. I think any driver with 1:10 or better power:weight ratio should take a performance driving course. I'm sure it would keep the insurance companies happy too.

The cost is speculated to be north of $100k. So if you have that at $100k and the Z06 at $75k something has got to give. Who knows, maybe the SS will be the one that drops in value because the Z is a better value. Either way, we all win.
