I'm a little scared it might have a vette front clip as well

Definitely an SS from what I hear. Dirty is right in that they are having trouble getting it to hookup with all that power. Talk is also that when it does hit the lots you will have to take a drivers training course before taking ownership. Too many new Z owners biting it already.

All I will say is Blue Devil is out; who knows, maybe like the person it was going to be named after, who will possibly be out too someday.

The powertrain units are in normal looking Vettes and hard to distinguish from a normal ZO6, and are being driven on the roads and tested in Germany. There will be some with extremely black out rear windows, to hide the electronic testing equipment that is contained in the rear of the vehicle, and with a breakout box on a bracket over the passenger seat.

So, if someone sees a ZO6 driving around with extremely blacked out windows in the rear, and a large electronic device sitting in the passenger seat with approximately 50+ LEDS and a ton of switches. (Should I say they will probably have the infamous MI "M" plate.) It might be one...

Powertrain mules do not require extensive camo to hide their appearance, only body mules used for new style bodies. The differences in the body will have camo (basically, a bunch of large car bras). Good example, there are about six H3s running around the country with test engines and you can't tell the difference between these vehicles and a normal off the lot H3, unless you notice the plate and look inside. However, there are plenty of test vehicles with existing powertrains running around with "M" plates too; that are used by engineering for testing, analysis, and joy rides by bored engineers.

As to the powertrain, someone is right, someone is wrong.

When they do hit the lots, I bet everyone will be sold months prior to production. As to driver's training course, I find that just some cool humor. Does GM require off-road driver's training for H1s?

And in regard to the photo of the "thing," take a close look at the rims, there will never be a Vette with over 600 HP manufactured with only four lugs.

You weren't paying close enough attention. Those are the new top secret quad-centric lug patterns. 4-bolt pattern outside of a smaller circular 4-bolt pattern

Can't say anything about the Vette, but I have a spy photo of the new, redesigned Asstec:

Most of what I heard on performance is second hand, not being directly involved in the project. What I've seen on the other hand, all I can say is the car formerly known as the Blue Devil will be much easier to distinguish from a Z06 than a Z06 is from a standard C6.

That would be because it will be the C7 with a new body style and even more rounded curves.

Here's my thought: You have the C6, then introduce the C6 Z06. Then comes the "radical" C7 and all will be sold at the same time for 2 or 3 years. The C7 will be known as the "SS" Then as they C6 is ending it's shortened lifespan, a C7 that is toned down will be introduced to replace the regular C6. So, possibly, over a 2 to 3 year period there will be 3 completely different models produced and sold, each with their own specific engine configurations.

For me this begs the question, what does GM have up their sleeves to try to stuff these big motors into also?

[f5fstop]

Don't believe they will designate it as a C7. GM's life cycles are at least seven years for a selling vehicle. But, who knows.
Claydog sees the bodies, I see the powertrains, and I'll release the inside info.

Duramax 6.6L diesel, with twin tubos, and the rear hatch opens up with flat floor for hauling firewood.
