'Z' Always Stood for Zora

The 'Z' in Z06 and ZR1 always implied Zora..... maybe they're just spelling it out for the slow folks

Interestingly, reports Autoblog (via GM Authority) GM has recently trademarked the name 'Zora'. Companies often do such things to protect parts of their history, but GM's reservation of the name specifically concerns "motor land vehicles, namely, automobiles". In other words, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that Chevy will attach that name to a Corvette--one honoring the man himself, or a special performance model.
