And the C7 Corvette Z06 with have how much power?
As are the ways of the internet sometimes things leak out. As we told you on our Facebook page the new C7 Corvette Z06 will launch on Monday. In the meantime we now know what kind of power to expect. Try 620hp for starters. What a monster that will be. We know the new LT4 6.2L V8 will be producing that power and unfortunately everything else will have to wait until Monday the 13th when we will be all over Chevy’s new world beater.
Here’s to hoping the Z06 doesn’t break the bank like the Z28.

2013 Car of the Year
Sometimes picking a winner is easy. 2013 is one of those years where there is no doubt. There were a lot of really good cars to debute this year. The new Jaguar, the new CTS, the Z28 Camaro, but there is only one winner and it’s obvious. The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was by far the most talked about car of the year. It holds the record for most hits on an article for our site, it got the most comments on facebook and it still is hotly discussed. Almost everyone loves it. Some criticize the rear end for being Camaro like, but when you realize that there are differential coolers back there and the rear is designed for air flow it all makes sense.
With 460hp, high tech suspension and a luxurious interior it may be the best car Chevy has ever made.

2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 priced at $75,000
Whew! I actually can’t repeat the words that I said when I got the press release this morning about the Chevrolet Camaro Z28 pricing. Let’s not kid oursevles $75,000 is a lot of money. Too much actually. Yes I know cheap cars are history and cheap performance is long gone, but how nuts are you to pay $75,000 for a Camaro?
The thing is people will do it, lots of people because it’s a heck of a performer and people will always want the top of the line. That’s fine and I hope someone gets one and then promptly lets me drive it. That’s the only way I’m getting a hold of one I’m sure. Still $75,000 will buy you a Vette, a 911, and a whole big bunch of really awesome classic cars so you’ve really gotta love a Camaro to drop what would get you a decent house where the IG HQ is located. Still I’m not one to judge so let’s take a look at just what all that money gets you.
