C8 Z06 670HP NA FPC!!
- Thread starter Z06
- Start date
There is a part in the 25 min livestream video where Brett Golliff says the other competitors that we are competing against that is in a price range "unique to themselves" will look back at the Z as the one that changes the way they operate.
That portion of the video was all I needed to hear for anyone to realize that GM ain't leaving anything on the table with this car. They went balls deep.

They will be out toward end of next year. 3-4 years ? Lol so now it could potentially come out in 2026? Nothing against you but that’s BS. I get the time but this car will be out next year.
I think he meant, wait time. It will still be in Summer 2022 but the wait list is out a few years.
At least no games by Chev with Willy Wonka Golden Tickets and other BS. I think if someones wants a Z they will get it and for MRSP as long as you are patient.
It'll be the same thing. If you want one, you'll be paying a large Adm or waiting forever. Only difference will be the lack of the term "golden ticket". I bet thousands of orders don't get filled
I don’t know what it means but lots of guys ordered Shelby’s earlier this year and had the order cancelled. Covid bs screwing everything up still.
Ill never pay ADM for anything. Something about a fool and his money......
100% with you there.
I know, I know, this is the "I'm poor" comment... but with C8's easily commanding $100k right now, this model is effectively out of reach of a large majority of the enthusiast population. Even if it's a bargain compared to Ferrari...
The Corvette used to be a blue collar sports car... but the C8 is moving beyond that. If Camaro is really cut, what GM sports car will the average enthusiast be able to buy?

You buy the sub 100k model.
This is like asking for a cheap enthusiast ZR1, when we know damn well that'll never happen. Also the Z06 was like 65k for a base back in the c6 Z06 days. That jumped to 75k and up for a base c7z. The C8z I can see going for 85k base once the market is saturated and everyone and their grandmothers own one.
I know you're a chevy guy but turn off the blinders for a sec. The C8 right now is going for 100k and apparently GM is having trouble keeping up with demand: Dealers Are Still Playing Games With Corvette C8 Markups.
So with chip shortages, potential magnesium shortages, high demand for the newest latest and greatest, 3-4 year wait is REALISTIC. Especially if you want it at MSRP. Stealerships are going to want ADM. What dealership turns down the potential of making crazy adm like 50k+ adm just to be a nice guy? I've seen this with Ford and Dodge, dealerships do not care how many cars you've bought from them, they will find another customer regardless AND make adm while the whining crying MSRP guy will be bitching about not getting one or finding one.

So, you think the GT3 RS will "shit" on this? Getting near the RS is a total failure, and typical of American crap.
I think this will be higher than $85k and will be optioned up above $100k… before ADM.
A base C8 wouldn’t be on my radar, only interested in this car based on the engine.
I'll go out on a limb and say the new Z will tear the GT3 RS a new one on the rack. Pure speculation at this point I fully admit, but this iteration of the Z06 seems to be revolutionary, vs. the typical evolutionary changes/upgrades GM has done in the past on their special editions.
I get the feeling that they truly swung for the fences on this one, realizing that this is almost definitely the last hoorah, and the final swan song of the purely NA ICE performance car.
I call B/S, show me 3.
Son, you can call BS all you want, I don't care. Go over to any Challenger forum and do a little digging, it's there. Demon is old news, bro.
