Prediction Game

So, I was thinking in order to help pass the days as we eagerly await for more news, specs, stats, and the eventual release of the ZL1, we could play a friendly guessing game. It consists of predicting one thing about the ZL1 that has not been officially rumored about or confirmed by GM at the time of the prediction.

So, just make up a prediction about the ZL1, no matter how conservative or wild. Let's see if anyone can nail it or get close to an unknown spec or feature that has yet to be revealed.

I'll go: The ZL1's powerplant will eventually be revealed as a hybrid LSA-LS9 engine. This hybrid will be named the LS8 and will output 600+ Hp.*


*just throwin this out there, I don't really believe it will happen.

Ok, go

THAT WOULD BE KILLER!!! Choke on that Ford!

Mustang-Seeking missiles, I'm assuming. Although they'd have to fire backwards.

Same, But I'm thinking more near the 605hp range 595tq. Yeah, I'm betting high

Of course, I would love to be still too low.

My real prediction is a new color offered.
