I think with Navigation, and the 6spd Manual, it’ll be about $57,000-$60,000

Normal skidpad is 300ft and sometimes you see 200 ft. I have no idea how the 100ft numbers would relate to a standard 300 ft. skidpad

300ft #'s are 1.03  
200 #'s are 1.09

from what I read, the car has a built in G-meter, that displays where the navigation is.

you fulfill a lot of bad information, again the corvette forums are filled with old windbags who feel the corvette is the best piece of machinery on the planet. Bob Lutz came on to [LS2.com](http://LS2.com) to confirm. Although he did state that the brake coolers would be pushed down just a tad

blue. i think its cool that you post this type info, but im sayin that how can corvette sites have bad info but [LS2.com](http://LS2.com) have all the answers??? i would think that ppl that r on the vettes sites also frequent [LS2.com](http://LS2.com). I see the same info u post here, but it isnt presented as offical, because as of right now its all speculation. that pic is nothing more than one of the “old windbags” on the forum, taking a C6 pic into photoshop and rendering it based on rumors of the new Z.

there are many GM Reps who are clearly identified with highlighted names who post on [LS2.com](http://LS2.com).

But I’ll take Bob Lutz’s word over yours 🙂
