Two to piss off all these speculators buying the Z06 and putting them in shrink wrap thinking they are going to have a 458 2.0 on their hands and to then see the values drop.....
I don’t know what the upgrades might be to LT2. Just from what I’ve seen I think the Gen 6 addresses truck emissions and fuel economy in a front engine rear drive configuration. Can’t imagine they’d go to the trouble of also engineering a mid-engine car variant of it when they already have two mid-engine car variants available. If they are going to replace one of them I’d expect it to be through upgrading it rather than engineer yet a third mid-engine variant.

And to your point in an earlier post, C9 is almost certain to be an MCE on the current platform. They’re not gonna engineer a new platform when they’ve just introduced the current ZERV platform. And introduce an electric platform at the same time? Nope. MCE.
