Personally if the new Z?? comes out, looks similar, and is close to the power of my ZL1, there is no reason to buy new for what is more than likely going to be more money.
It looks too similar to the 5th gen for anyone's jaw to drop. Now if the SS is running bottom 12s tomorrow, that may change some minds.

Agreed... but what would have made them happy with this release? Obviously they enjoy the current looks because they bought off on them. If the General strays too far, he takes an unneccessary sales risk with low odds they'll impress the 5th gen faithful. If he doesn't go far enough, the threshold for change won't be met to ensure they'll trade in before they are ready.
So tell us, what radical change in looks did you guys want? Point us to some overdone rendering that would never have a chance to actually be mass produced? Did you vet how many people actually like it besides yourselves?
Yes, you are entitled to your opinions, but in my opinion, GM had never really had a chance at getting much positive feedback from 5th gen owners regardless of what they did.
