I can tell you that it will be one of the most exotic sports car ever built in the US.
I can tell you that it will be very limited produced, less than 500.
I can tell you that it will have in the range of 600 HP.
I can tell you that it will have a mostly aluminum frame.
I can tell you that it will have full carbon fiber body panels.
I can tell you that it will be in the range of $100,000.00.

I've definetly heard about this car. It's something chevy wants to design to keep up with the new supercar trend. I don't think that it's going to become a reality. Chevy already has astronomical sales, so why do they need a limited production super car? I think they'll make the new Z06 closer to supercar standards and not make something more powerful.

The blue devil is currently being considered for production for the 2007 model year.
however, it is unlikely that z06 version of the c6 corvette will be made. chief engineer dave hill says that the new z51 performance package will give the c6 most of the 2004 z06's performance capabilities and therefor a z06 is not nessisary.

I guess it's time for change. The ZR1 was replaced by the Z06 and now the Z06 we be replaced. Hopefully this Z51 packs the same bang for buck as the Z06

That car is a concept and will not be made, no reason for it with a 450 plus bhp ZO6 comming out in 2006!
