Wow, cool find man!!

The yellow one is definitely an export version, probably the one we'll soon see spyshots of tearing up the Nurburgring GT2 record.....

At first I thought maybe the white one was an export version too, just with the side turn signal repeater lights not installed..... since we know that GM likes to send white c6's to the 'ring........ But the white one is *NOT* an export version. Look at the rear side marker lights (just behind/above the rear wheels). Euro laws state that those lights have to be orange... on the yellow car, notice that those ARE orange.... whereas on every other us-bound c6 and c6 z06 we've seen, including this new white z06..... they're red.

So...... why did GM build a white z06 if not for nurburgring testing? Hmm.............. maybe it's a surprise...... or maybe it's just another test car they're gonna use for testing at the Lutzigring, aka Milford road course........

Where's the Z06 badge on the white one? What's that junk on the yellow one? Are these test mules going to a test track? Bizarre!

Are those the only Z06's that were on the truck? The blue one on there looks great too... even if it isn't a Z06.

Great Pics Zippy!!!! Thanks for posting! Awesome find. Best new info we've had in a long time

Oh, and about the color. We've heard from several sources in the past that some white Z06's would be built, but that they were all test vehicles. Course, that could have been bad info, or it may have changed, but we know for certain we have seen white Z06's before. Think boatshop and all the disguised cars we saw for months.

Hey Zippy,
Great pics. Was this at VG's off Grand River, or was it parked off of M59? Going with the future Ms to the Howell Farmer's Market today and will go by a couple places to check it out.

Thanks for the awesome pics!

Oh30h6:

The pic was taken off M-59, "about" 1.5 miles West of Latson road on the North side. It was parked by a "Ferrel" company sign. If it's still there, you can't miss it.
