New Vette C6; 500hp 427cu in?
 

Is this for real? Is that going to be the
stock Vette package??
-Rich

No, that's the specs for the new Z06. The regular C6 is a 6.0L w/400 bhp.

I wouldn't own a Vette if it was free, can't stand the looks. If you want
one, get one.
And don't worry, the Cobra will be made and it will cost less than the base
C6 with more performance and near equal handling.

I don't see a stock Cobra match a stock vette's numbers. I'm not a huge
car history buff but when has ford produced a Cobra that had 100hp more
than the GT?

Please don't mention the Cobra R which would be Ford's ridiculously
priced answer to the Z06.

Oskar,

The car is a beast, with a capital B,E,A,S, and T! High 11's at 125+
mph in the quarter, right off the showroom floor. For the money, it's
the best American performance car EVER, period. It is THE King of the
Hill.

How GM will ever top this Z06 is beyond me... I just can't imagine its
sucessor...

Patrick

I thought that a few times... but damn these HP numbers these days are just
skyrocketing. Truly amazing what automakers are doing.. especially w/ the
strict emissions requirements. I am nothing short of extremely impressed
with both Ford & Chevy.
