Some of the rumors of the C7 are really starting to make me think.
http://www.corvetteforum.com/ is a pretty good place.

I am considering either trading my '11 Z in on a '13 Z if they do a 60th anniversary package that is tasteful and it's the last year for the C6, or going '10 SRT-10.

The reason I am back-pedaling on the C7 is that every time GM comes out with a new 'vette, it takes another year or two to come out with the performance model, and then another few years to work out the kinks. It's only natural, but I would rather the fully evolved C6 platform for a "keeper". This car will have built my credit and given me experience in a 500+ hp 3200# vehicle as well as having owned one, I now better know what options I like, and would like.

That being said, the 370Z I drove felt like a slower Z06 with a softer suspension and better sterio. It's a really really nice car in its price-range. If $35-40K were my budget, and 280whp were enough, it's the car I would buy.
