EXACTLY. Why would set up to build the 5th gen only to have to make changes in a few years for the 6th gen. That would be a BIG waste of money.

keep the 50th anniv edition "wish lists" coming. I know we're a long way off from even being able to order one, but talking about what it will look like and what it will have under the hood makes it seem more tangible, yanno? LOL!
I'm also hoping in addition to some retro colors, they put some awesome rims on it. Kinda over the polished aluminum and midnight silver we've seen since 2010.

My points were just speculating on what GM has done in the past. Maybe they will break the mold this time around. |

I would think so, based on how competitive the market is and how quickly it moves.

The ZL-1? I dont believe it'll be produced as the ZL-1 was only produced in 1969 and moving to another gen, I see them going with history and eliminating it from production.

After 100 years, I guess I can wait three more, to trade for a 6th Generation...

Well, i am looking forward to a 50th anniversary edition. My 5th Gen will be paid off before then. I think it will be a nice addition to my collection. Be cool to take it to a car show and park it next to my 67. Wish i still had my 87 Iroc in my collection.

They may make it in 6th gen, but my question would be why? You're going to do a total make over on a different platform. I never saw any 2nd gen ZL-1s. Not to mention, they dropped the 427 from the production line. What engine will they install in a 6th gen ZL-1? An LT1 supercharged engine? Shouldnt the 6th gen ZL-1 have a stand alone engine? Im going to assume that the LT1 is going to be the major engine in the 6th gen as there is no other vette engine in production as of yet. IF they make a 6th gen ZL-1, then it'll be somewhat that of a ZR-1 supercharged LT1. Namely an LT5???

I know I have said this multiple times but do you honestly think the LT1 is the only gen 5 small block GM will develop? There will be more coming in the near future. They still have to develop one for the Z06 and one for the ZR1. The ZL1 doesn't get a stand alone engine now, so why would it in the 6th gen? It will probably share one with the CTS-V like it does now. |

Well, I went ahead and ordered a 2014 Special Spring Edition 2SS RS 6m.
I was just afraid the 50th Anniv Edition might not be what I was hoping for. SOOOOOOOOO...........Spring Edition for me which will knock me out of the market for the 50th Anniv edition.
