When you consider my '08 Z06 was $80,000 in October of '07, and this car has 14 more years of development under it, it's only 10 less HP, same TQ, and yet it's 9/10ths second faster to 60? I'd say it's a bargain.

Bought my rocker panel extensions today. Those, and the high wing spoiler, will be installed at no charge during the PDI. Also, spoke to the owner today, they refunded all Z06 deposits because of the push back to 2023, but he assured me that 3 years to the day from when I take delivery of my 2021, I will be able to take delivery of my Z06. Assuming that's a 2024, and that's fine. I really don't want a 1st year car with a completely new flat plane crank engine.

Nope, you don't want a first year, especially early in the first year.

Have you driven a C8 yet? I can assure you that you will love it once it arrives. Very well done. Although I am not a fan of the wall of buttons, it seems to work ok. good luck and post lots of pics.
