A new super Corvette will build on the Z06's 7.0-liter LS7 V-8 that was developed in sync with the Corvette C6.R Le Mans racer. For this limited-production Vette, which might be called the Z07, Chevy will increase the LS7's displacement and bolt on a supercharger to bump output by 145 hp. The Z07, due in 2008, will be further differentiated from the Z06 by the use of more carbon-fiber body panels and a huge hood vent aimed at killing front-end lift.

I remember reading about them coming out with a supercharged z06. Didn't realize they were going to make it into a whole new model.

Its kinda a tradition, something that will prolly never change for a long time, its been around since 1962. thats just one more thing that makes a vette a vette and not a gay viper.
