We’ve shifted so many ‘Vettes, that we’d rightly consider ourselves quite well informed on GM’s sports car that’s been around since 1953. Named after the small and maneuverable warship, the Corvette is now on its eighth generation, and what a generation it be! A shift from front-engined to mid-engined is the major difference. Of course, that also makes the seventh, or C7 generation the last of the old guard where the V8 lay under the hood. If you’re looking for a C7 ‘Vette, this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 1LZ is a fine example to consider. Coming from Georgia, it’s got just 19,000 miles on its wheels.
Exterior and Interior
Hwasup Lee was the designer of the C7, and it saw a more angular and sharp-creased styling language as the predominant theme. This 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 1LZ showcases this styling with a suave white paint job. Being a Z06, it’s got glass skins louvers and some elements from the Z07 performance package, including Z07 carbon fiber splitter, Z07 carbon fiber side skirts and Z07 spoiler. An exhaust cover plate completes the elements that differentiate this one from a regular C7 ‘Vette. The tires are reportedly new, and are wrapped around 19-inch alloys at the front, and 20-inch units at the rear. Venture aboard and it’s a red interior that greets you. The two leather seats are powered, and there’s also a Z06 red armrest, as well as Z06 floor mats. The driver grips a sporty flat-bottomed steering wheel with multifunction switches and scroll wheels, and faces a combination digital and analog gauge cluster, encompassing a central screen flanked by an analog speedometer on the left-hand side, and analog gauges for fuel and supercharger boost on the right-hand side. Typically, the center screen shows an RPM gauge but can be configured to show other information as well. You also get a touchscreen infotainment system and climate control system. A small plaque beneath the climate control buttons gently inform you of the 650hp and 650lb-ft power and torque figures.
Engine
650hp and 650lb-ft of torque. That’s what you get from the 6.2L supercharged V8 engine that powers this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 1LZ. The top speed is 185mph. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a Hydramatic 8L90 eight-speed automatic transmission with manual shifting available via the steering-mounted paddles. Brembo brakes, magnetic ride control, electronic limited-slip differential and and performance traction management are the other goodies that the Z06 brings to the table.
The 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible comes from the heart of the C2 era, when the Corvette had already matured into a genuinely serious American sports car without losing the raw character that made the Sting Ray famous. This example leans heavily into that character. Showing 19,053 miles, it pairs a 327ci V8 with a four-barrel carburetor and a four-speed manual transmission, then adds the kind of period-style attitude enthusiasts gravitate toward: side-mount exhaust, knock-off-style turbine wheels, and a vivid Sunfire Yellow finish over a black interior. The current owner reports more than $83,000 invested into the build, with attention extending beyond cosmetics into the cooling system, ignition components, timing hardware, and other supporting mechanical upgrades. What makes this car appealing is that it still delivers the classic C2 experience in the way enthusiasts want it: small-block V8 up front, manual gearbox in the middle, drive going to the rear, and very little standing between the driver and the car. The side pipes give the Corvette a more aggressive presence and soundtrack, while the custom paint and wheel setup emphasize the long-hood, short-deck proportions that made the midyear Corvette one of Chevrolet’s most iconic designs.
By 2008, the C6 Corvette had matured into one of the strongest all-around American performance cars of its era, and this example combines the right mechanical hardware with an unusually extensive equipment list. Showing 50,966 miles, this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is equipped with the desirable 3LT Preferred Equipment Group and Z51 Performance Package, pairing the LS3 V8 with a six-speed manual transmission, 3.42:1 limited-slip rear axle, and dual-mode performance exhaust. It was also specified with the GCA Ultimate Package, adding a collection of appearance upgrades that give this Victory Red Corvette a more distinctive presence than a typical C6. An aftermarket front splitter and audio head unit add further personalization while retaining the fundamental character that makes a manual Z51 C6 such an appealing enthusiast car.
The 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible sits at the heart of the early C3 era, pairing dramatic styling with the kind of mechanical specification that made these cars so memorable. Showing approximately 5,672 miles, this example is finished in Monza Red over a Black interior and is equipped with the desirable L46 350ci V8 rated at 350 horsepower. A 4-speed manual transmission and Positraction rear axle keep the driving experience firmly enthusiast-focused, while power steering and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes add useful road manners. Chrome Rally wheels, a black convertible soft top, and the unmistakable Stingray bodywork give the exterior its period-correct presence, while the cabin retains the classic twin-cowl dash, center console, and auxiliary gauge layout. An aftermarket steering wheel, manual shifter, air cleaner, and JVC audio head unit add a handful of personalized touches without taking away from the car’s classic Corvette character.
This 1978 Chevrolet C10 Silverado brings together classic square-body styling with a selection of upgrades that give it a more personalized street-truck character. Showing approximately 70,132 miles, this example is powered by a 350ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and 3-speed automatic transmission. Finished in a custom Black and Silver two-tone exterior over a Gray interior, it also features power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, aftermarket wheels, an aftermarket suspension setup, and a center console with cupholders. The result is a distinctly American pickup that keeps the straightforward appeal of the original C10 while adding a cleaner, lower, more customized presentation.
