While it's always safer to wait, I don't think there will be much to worry about.

The real reason to wait would be if you're interested in the next gen Z06
C6 was still based off the C5 chassis. The LS2 / LS3 was based off the LS1 motor. There weren't dramatic changes.

C6 to C7 there are a lot. New transmission (updated version of the old, but still very new)
LT1 motor is an all new design, only a handful of things carried over

The frame went from steel to all aluminum.

The electronics in the car also got a serious upgrade, that is where I think the bugs will be found.
