Definitely don't see a ZR1 happening. This new Z06 is S/C and will have surpassed the MSRP of the C6 ZR1. It makes no financial sense to build a ZR1 unless it is a stripped down track monster to deal with the ACR Viper when it gets released.
You think the Z06 will be priced at $120K to start? That's Viper GTS land. Plus the base Corvette starts at $51K, about the same as the base C6 before it, and the C6 Z06 started around $75K if memory serves. The base car got only a minor price bump for a MUCH better product, so even though the generational performance increase will apparently be much larger on the Z06 than it was for the base car, I'd be surprised if it got a dramatically larger price bump. Starting the Z06 at almost 2.5x the base model?
