Bonus req: T-tops option (not that it will ever happen, but adding it anyways because I can...)

1. 6.7 LS6 DPI engine option -
I think this is a given
2. Supercharged variant of 6.7 DPI engine for higher trim level -
I don't see this happening
3. M6/A10 transmission options -
if the next gen CT5 doesn't offer a manual, this car won't have one either
4. 3GEN styling influences both exterior and interior -
this would be epic
5. Z28 trim level -
not likely imo
How long has GM been developing this car? It usually takes a while to get a car from early concept to production. The 5th gen was roughly 3 years, right?
GM doesn't really seem to get in a hurry with anything these days so I'm not very confident that they're going to design this car from the ground up with everything that we're used to with the 5th and 6th gens. ie, the performance variants like 1LE and ZL1. Talking to some friends with knowledge, the fear is that they're going to push the easy button and make this a 4-door with one trim, one engine/trans combo and see how it sells. Basically the SS Sedan v 2.0 which imo, would not be a success.
