  • Has everyone seen the pic of the C6 Z06?

    There was a pic that leaked onto the forums yesterday of a silver C6 Z06. It almost looked photoshopped... but whatever it was, it was close enough to the real thing to make GM contact all forum administrators and have them pull the pic. Apparently, it is an "embargoed" pic... I don't know what that means.

    Anyway, I have the picture, but I don't want GM serving me with anything so I am not going to post it.

    Those of you who have seen it, what are your thoughts????

    I really, really like the look of the fender flares, the wide tires, the HUGE brakes. The hood scoop is a little lacking -- it isn't even really a hood scoop... kinda a hole in the front fascia really... Overall, I really like it. I can't wait to see what's under the hood.

    Right now I am still hearing 427 with 500 HP, but i just heard torque may be 475.

    Your mailbox is full, but I'm sure you can guess what I was going to ask for.

                  You mean these?
                  Well, there has been a picture released of the C6Z06. So far, it's just a rumor and some are trying to figure out if it is a photochop. Some avid Photoshop users have analyzed it and said it is the real thing.

                  This is the original picture.

                  All of these colors are photochopped.




                  I think my Z will be black.
                  I'm in lust. This is the black one slammed.

                            Dear Sir,

                            My name is Mike xxxxxxx and I'm the xxxxxxx of Broadcast Communications for General Motors.

                            I've noticed that you have one of GM's embargoed photographs of the 2005 Corvette on your website. Since this image is embargoed until January 10, 2005, I am asking that you remove the image from your site until the embargo is lifted. While I don't expect you to tell me who provided you with the image, I am wondering if you would tell me if you received the image before Noon on Tuesday, November 9.

                            If there is any confusion regarding usage of GM's embargoed images or if you would like to discuss the situation with me, I can be reached through
                            email, or by phone at 313-665-xxxx. Thank you for your help with this matter.

                            Mike xxxxxxxx

                            Please remove the pictures that are part of the following thread:

                            Is this it?

                            These pictures are the property of General Motors. Please contact me so we can discuss this issue in further detail.
