CONDITION OF THIS PARTICULAR CAR
Although truly a limited production model. this car has been driven (albeit only 33. 00 miles) and begs to be driven more. It is. however. in excellent cosmetic shape and shows very well. The brilliant orange metallic paint. stinger hood with ‽427” logo. dramatic. high quality wheels. and Z06 badging give it a stunning exterior appearance. The paint work is extremely high quality with virtually no apparent imperfections. There is no damage in the rocker panel areas as sometimes occurs from improper lifting / jacking. The under-nose air dam is in very good condition. The undercarriage and under-body is ‽California clean” and shows no damage. or modifications to suspension. or exhaust system. The car is truly exceptional both cosmetically. and mechanically.

The unique and attractive leather interior and special badging again set the car off from base Corvette's. The interior is similarly in fine shape. The engine bay is very clean and shows good care. The right rear wheel had a minor scrape to the very outer edge that has been touched up and is hardly noticeable. The dash. seats and all interior panels are excellent and reflect the excellent care by the owner and the low. low miles.

The Z06 carries a clear. California title and is registered through 11/17 (for California buyers).

The Corvette passed the required California inspection with no findings and runs drives and handles as you would expect from a late model high performance Z06. The Corvette is licensed. registered and being used exclusively on the street (never seen track use).

HISTORY OF THE CHEVROLET CORVETTE C6 Z06
The Chevrolet Corvette C6 is a sports car produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors for the 2005-2013 model years. This sixth generation Corvette is the first with exposed headlamps since the 1962 model. Production variants include the Z06. ZR1. Grand Sport. and 427 Convertible.

The Z06 arrived as a 2006 model in the third quarter of 2005 and is the lightest of all Corvette models. The Z06 was equipped with the largest-displacement small-block ever produced. a new 7. 0 L (427 cu in) engine code-named LS7. The LS7 produced 505 hp and was the most powerful naturally aspirated engine put into a production car from General Motors. In addition to the larger displacement engine. the Corvette Z06 has a dry sump oiling system. and connecting rods made out of titanium alloy. The frame of the Z06 is constructed from aluminum. saving 136 pounds over the standard steel frame. Other weight saving measures such as balsa wood/carbon fiber composite floors and a magnesium alloy engine cradle were used. The Z06's body differentiates itself from the standard Corvette with its larger front and rear fenders and an intake inlet scoop on the front bumper. The front fenders are constructed with carbon fiber and the rear fenders contain ducts to aid in cooling the rear brakes. The Z06 weighed 3. 30 lb (1. 20 kg). giving it a weight to power ratio of 6. 2 pounds per horsepower. allowing excellent fuel economy rating (24 mpg on the highway & 15 mpg in the city).

The Z06 contains the following enhancements over the standard C6 Corvette:

• Hand-built LS7 7. 0L 427CI V8 with dry-sump oiling system

• Aluminum chassis with fixed roof

• Larger/stiffer anti-sway bars

• Stiffer springs and shocks

• Larger rear spoiler and front splitter

• Transmission cooler

• Unique front fascia with intake inlet

• Wider carbon fiber front and fiberglass rear fenders

• Functional front and rear brake ducts for added brake system cooling

• Unique light weight forged aluminum 18-inch front and 19-inch rear wheels

• Wider 275/35ZR18 tires in the front and wider 325/30ZR19 tires in the rear
(Now 20" Rear / 19" Front)

• Larger 6-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers. including cross-drilled 355 mm (14. 0 in) front rotors and 340 mm (13 in) rear rotors

Our eBay feedback is 100% positive on all vehicle sales from customers around the globe and is a reflection of our commitment to accurate. complete. and thorough vehicle descriptions.
