That really is a nice looking car. Chevy is doing quite good on their upcoming vehicles.

Yup. I knew the chrome looked better. Chrome will never go out of style no matter how many people disagree. I guess I'm about equal on the new wheel design versus the old ones. So if the LSA is replacing the LS7, then I guess the 2010 ZO6 will get the ZR1 hood as well since the engine dimensions(with the LS9) are identical?

As far as I know, the Z06 will not die, nor will the LS7. The ZR1 is a limited production "super vette". The Z06 is still going to be around.

The LS7 will probably be around untill it is replaced by a DI V8 of slightly greater power. Putting a supercharged engine in there isn't quite where they wanted to go with the whole concept of the Z06. (wieght/handling for an extraordinary price.)

My thoughts exactly. The question we all have then is when?
