That 06 z06 pic we saw....

This information that follows is from Rick at digitalcorvettes.com:

The 1st Embargoed Z pic was as we know a stolen pic from the press kit and altered so that person would not get into trouble.....they even changed the color and the sides , from my GM source said...do not look right!

The car we all saw is 70% right.......



I knew it was a chop and not completely correct.

A stolen picture from GM's Advanced Media web site. That picture was released hours after GM gave media access for the NAIAS debuts.

I knew it was photoshopped in some way, remember my close up of the front wheel? It still had to be pretty close tho

Is anything really "safe" on any website?
