The 6th gen should lose weight because GM has a much better platform to start with. The biggest downfall of the 5th gen is weight and everyone knows it.

" Predictably, the stiffer structure is also heavier than that of the outgoing car’s. Indeed, it’s one of the reasons that the new Z06 will carry a significantly heavier curb weight. How much heavier? Well, Chevy says it doesn’t really know yet since development is ongoing. But we’re told to expect that it will be weightier not than just the old Z06 (3259 pounds), but also the ZR1 (3353), too. Figure somewhere between 3600 and 3700 pounds and you’re probably close."
