Default Lutz quoted: Standard C6 would be more potent than current Z06

Quote from Vette magazine:
"Mr. Lutz came right out and stated that the standard C6 would be more potent than the current Z06, and added that when the C6 version of the Z06 becomes available, he was going to sell one of his Vipers and buy a Z06!"

And from another thread the base C6 should be about the same weight as a Z06.

The C6 Z06 will be nothing short of a performance monster. I can't wait!

Man I'm glad Lutz is on our side now. He's a master marketer. Helps get us a better vette and masterfully presents information. I wonder if he is behind the cammo spy cars / keep the C6 secret policy.

And I'm sure with the improved transmission and transfer of power, the car will probably be a little quicker than the current Z06. That's pretty scary when you consider how fast the Z06 is.

More bang for the buck. The Corvette is a great car. The new C6 will take it to a new performance level with the new Z06 version raising the bar even higher. I can't wait the see the new C6 and even more to see the performance reviews against the competition.
