To me, the C5 is more of a looker. This car is clearly superior/amazing though.

Sigh.....I miss the popup headlights.

Due to the recent years of successful racing development with the 2 valve head architecture (endurance Corvettes). With all the miles under the 7.0L racing Corvettes, I imagine this engine has a whole bunch of that program's know-how in it.

This will be my next sports car. In 06 the S will be sold and a 500+ HP LS7 will be just forward of my right foot.

Number 1, the LS2 only has 2 valves per cylinder and no one knows the weight of the new Z06.

Check the link.
Engine
6.0L LS2 V-8

Displacement (liters/cu in/cc):
6.0 / 364 / 5970

Bore & stroke (in / mm):
4 x 3.62 / 101.6 x 92

Block material:
cast aluminum

Cylinder head material:
cast aluminum

This guy has been pretty much right on and he says 2900lbs...I'm going with that for now.

THis is freaking awesome!!! I've been staring at the black version of this car for several weeks now. That was supposed to be a "guesstimate", but it looks exactly like this yellow car. I'll take mine in black please! I think I'm not gonna miss my 02 Z06 much after all.
