A must. Part of why it looks so incredible

TORCH RED sighting in Arizona

Non-Z51 Base, GT Seats.

Rumor has it, a Camo'd Z06 was with them going to the Yuma Proving Grounds, this again, just a rumor.

From the OP:

Quote:
Car in question is a wet sump LT1 car, with an A6 automatic (not the forthcoming 8 speed auto), silver wheels, glass roof, and some interior trim that is pre-production which he was not allowed to photograph.
THe driver is part of the testing/validation/engineering group for the C7 program, and there are currently 2 other cars driving around Phoenix !!!!

Now, the super bitchin' news......

The driver is on his way to the Yuma proving grounds to continue testing a heavely camoflaged Z06 !!!!!!!
Dave asked if he could disclose any info on that car's engine, which he replied "Nope".

So the red C7 is the base Corvette and the Gray C7 is the Z51? How can you tell?

If this base red model is missing the Stingray icon logo on its front fenders... is it still known as a Corvette Stingray? Or simply a Corvette?

It's a preproduction car. Doesn't have all the trim bits installed.

It was probably a camo'd mule car that's been photographed before. No point in keeping it covered now.
