Believe it or not, there are “C6’s” out testing right now. Although, any that leave the testing grounds are either in C5 or covered XLR drab. C6 alphas are rumored to be just getting the new bodies inside the proving grounds in Arizona and Michigan. We’ve also had confirmation that testing has been done at one private track in the southeast United States during late winter. Reports state that the C6 mule out lapped a Z06 by a large margin. Also, we expect, but have no confirmation that C6 mules are to be tested in northern Canada and Australia starting this fall. And if your feeing brave, and want to try to take a look for yourself, C6’s have been reportedly spotted running down the large back strait-away at GM’s Milford proving grounds just before dawn in the recent weeks
That is the most exciting article I've read to date regarding the C6..... hopefully this will curb some of the negative remarks that have been made recently about the C6. I am getting pumped just thinking about what the future will bring..... :cheers:
guys and gals, i have a newly updated version of the article on www.gm-cars.com
Now including links to articles and press releases pertaining to the discussed technology..
Hmmm, lighter weight due to hydroforming innovations, 42 volt system, camless engine for C6 Z06 follow-on. Lots of technology to get right, more to get wrong. Think I will stick with my pattern of buying the second year of this model, worked pretty well this time around.
Yeah, 2007 sounds just about right - usually keep my Vettes 5-6 years.

2007 sounds good to me too...hell I might just go 2008 just to make sure I give it the last go round for that C6 Z06 sequential shifter technology..(twin clutch should be the ticket to allow this)
