A New Limited Edition Super-'Vette

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition

The Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06 created a lot of reactions when it was launched: with 650 horsepower and a chassis more nimble than ever (and an interior that finally matches the price of the car!), Chevrolet’s sport car is finally capable of holding its own against Italy and Germany’s finest.

If you want slightly better aerodynamics for your Corvette Z06, you can opt for the Z07 Performance Package. This will give you Brembo ceramic brakes, Michelin Cup 2 tires and various carbon fibre bits to help you go faster on a track.

However, if you want your ‘Vette to be a rolling homage to Chevrolet’s racecars, you need the new C7.R edition, which will be limited to 500 units. The package adds yellow brake calipers, yellow accents on the wheels and Corvette-branded centre caps. Inside, there are various carbon fibre accents, yellow stitching and unique kick plates.

There is no exact pricing yet, but we suspect that it will sell for more than the $120,000 asked for a Z07-equipped Corvette…
