2016 Chevrolet Corvette C7R Z06 for sale

When Chevrolet unveiled its latest Corvette-based race car, the C7.R, at Detroit auto show, not only were we blown away by its sheer awesomeness, but we were impressed by the unprecedented level of co-development that took place with the roadgoing Corvette Z06. Corvette Racing partner Pratt & Miller operated in lockstep with Chevrolet's engineering squad during the entirety of the Z06's gestation, allowing them a head start on building the best possible Z06-based race car. Now, Chevrolet is reversing the Z06-to-C7.R inspiration flow with the race-car-emulating 2016 Z06 C7.R Edition. Consider us blown away again.

Before anyone says a thing about how the C7.R Edition is merely a cosmetic upgrade kit, keep in mind that the 650-hp Z06, out of the box, is about as insane as a track-devouring four-wheeled beast can get, warranty or otherwise. Chevrolet will build just 500 C7.R Editions for 2016, spread across both coupe and convertible body styles. Every single one will come with the even-higher-performance Z07 package (Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, adjustable aerodynamic bits, and Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup 2 tires), a special sequential VIN, and the upscale 3LZ trim (standard leather- or suede-wrapped everything, navigation, and Chevy's Performance Data Recorder). Buyers can choose between black or—and this is basically required—Corvette Racing Yellow paint colors, and Chevy paints the grilles and vents Spectra Gray, adds a neat visible carbon-fiber section to the hood, and slaps Corvette Racing sill covers in the door openings.

Perhaps our favorite feature is the thin, yellow bands painted on the black wheels, which also wear Corvette Racing center caps. Inside, the cabin is slathered in Jet Black leather and sueded microfiber, and everything's stitched together using yellow thread. The carbon-fiber and competition-seat packages are both included, too. No pricing has been announced, but a regular (2015) Z06 coupe kitted out with the same 3LZ trim, carbon-fiber interior panels, competition seats, Z07 package with visible carbon-fiber components, yellow-painted brake calipers, hood stripe, and black-finished wheels rings in at $106,710. Expect to pay more for the C7.R Edition—and rightfully so. Racing has been an integral part of the Corvette story since the 1950s, and today's C7.R carries on that tradition. Having the chance to own a C7.R doppelgänger for the street? Amazing.
