The Corvette, sitting currently as the halo car for Chevy and dubbed 'America's Sports Car,' was never actually meant to go into production. A model of the Chevy was merely set out as a showpiece for the 1953 General Motors Motorama. Still, the crowd instantly fell in love with the design, and Chevrolet decided to put it into mass production. This 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe is from the 7th generation and is currently up for sale.

Exterior and Interior

As the showpiece for American sports car engineering, one can imagine how the Corvette received its sleek and aggressive design. Everything about this car was made to contribute towards the car being an absolute track weapon. With the addition of the Z07 performance package on this Torch Red Vette, aerodynamics are on point. The vehicle also has an exposed carbon fiber weave hood insert, a visible carbon fiber roof panel with body-color surround, the carbon flash-painted ground effects package, and sits on a set of Z06 Spectra Grey Painted and machined grooved aluminum wheels wrapped in what the owner claims are four new Michelin tires. As for the interior, the theme of aggressive and performance-oriented is preserved. Upon entering, you will be welcomed by an Adrenaline Red interior with perforated Mulan Leather seating surfaces, the car will then come to life with the help of a remote vehicle starter system, and a performance data and video recorder will assist you in keeping track on how the car is performing on the track.

Engine

With the flip of a switch, this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 coupe roars to life with the sound of a 6.2L Supercharged V8 engine pushing upwards of 450 horses to the wheels, giving it unbelievable amounts of performance on track with the help of a 2.41 rear axle ratio with electronic limited-slip differential, Z07 suspension system, an 8-speed automatic gearbox with paddle shift, and ceramic disk brakes to keep things in check.
