Me thinks Corvette never wanted to appeal to the "younger generation" as they stated.... They want to play with the "Big Dogs"..... They'll move the "camaro" into the pricing zone of the Corvette.

Sadly this very well may be my last Corvette. If I'm going to look at $100k for a car....it won't be a Corvette...
Wes, it will be very interesting to see at what price point they bring in the 2015 Z06. Last years Z06 started at $76,000. It has been proclaimed that "if you can afford last years Z06, you can afford the new Z06". With a loaded Stingray only a few thousand shy of last years Z06 it will be very interesting to see how close their idea of "afford" really is. My warning to prespective 2015 Z06 owners is to order early and do not wait. Chevy has already shown that they have NO problem whatsoever tacking on a few thousand dollar increase for the sole purpose of "keeping up with demand".
