I understand completely. You'd have to wait till '94 to get one.

There are many last minute changes......It could be a part that does not fit right.....or has the wrong 'gloss level' or graining........or it could be engine programming.....or fit and finish......we do it because we want it right from the beginning. Are we perfect? No...... Is any manufacturer perfect? No.....
But we do sweat the details.......and anyone in the auto manufacturing business can attest to this.

I have a picture if you'd like to see it ........

Actually, I came >>>>THIS<<<<<< close to buying a GTZ, new.

What a great performer! Handled awesome, had great power and torque. Simply a blast to drive.

As far as I'm concerned, this was Chevy's hottest FWD drive car, until the cobalt SS.

Re: Is the C6 Z06 out yet?

In all seriousness, I have no problems with the Z/28. If that is what they choose to make the top model Camaro, I won't blink an eye in buying one. My love for the SS moniker comes from the photos I have of myself as a toddler, standing on the Cowl Induction hood of the old mans 1969 L78 SS396 (blue with black stripes).

Also, I have to admit, I liked the 3.4l Z/26, not bad looking for a FWD car.

You Dog, I should have known. You better bring it to Bowling Green in Sept.

Actually I am going down to the factory in Aug. I hope to catch a few Z06s and XLR-Vs in the area.

Re: Is the C6 Z06 out yet?

The CFO of my company has his order placed already....

The dealer our company deals with didn't get a Z06 allocation (didnt sell enough Corvettes) , but they hooked him up with a dealer in Michigan.

My father-in-law and I might be driving up to trailer it back for him... not sure.

He ordered Silver with the Titanium Gray accent interior... I think he loaded it up with all the options.
