Sounds like it'll be getting the Z06 engine unless somebody knows otherwise?? I wonder what the "aggressive" look will be?

I dont really think it will get the LS7. I think it will get a supercharged engine, maybe a SC L92.

I think GM is teasing us. I'll believe it when I see it. Until then, don't get your hopes up!

the site sounds almost right on about everything from what i've heard/read. I'll be interested to see what the '08 will sport, NA or some kind of big blower? It sounds like fun, whatever winds up in there.

I won't for 40k if it has a blower on it. It will probably cost as much as the Denali with 500 hp. I guess the rumor I did hear might be true after all, I was just off by a year. It better be in 08'. I just bought this 06'. I'll be pissed if its an 07'. My sales guy told me that the 07's will still be a 6.0, maybe he did't know that it might be blown.
