Z06 R
They have it listed as 600 HP, could it be the bluedevil, or did they once again increase HP on the Z06.
The whole thing could be wrong, just like their "exclusive" animation of the new NSX.

Not to be an anus, but who cares? 505 h.p. in a 3,000lb car is WAY more than you can use effectively on the road. I'd also wager that it is more than enough for amatuers on the track. Plus, you can mod the LS7 pretty cheaply and get some big gains, I believe. I just think the "Blue Devil" (what a lame name) is pointless. Why does the world need a $100K+ Corvette with more power than the Z06? I'd MUCH rather see a $45K clubsport-type car with 430-440 hp out of the 6.0 liter, a tigher/more nimble suspension, better wheels (think racier multi-spoke with no g.d. chrome), better seats, short-shifter, and sport exhaust. That would be a phenomenal buy. Hmmm...that sounds a bit like the old Z06. But, I'm fine with keeping the removable roof.

That link, when I click on it, shows nothing of interest. I didn't see anything about a Z06.R or Blue Devil.
click on this link
OMG, it says Z06 R, that's news to me.
Now click on specifications... OMG it says 600HP..That's 95 HP more than current.
happy surfing!

That's a lot of money for a Corvette even if it has 600 HP.
I didn't see any price listed yet.
