[Kirby]

It's official, the new Z06 will be the fastest Corvette ever.

Chevrolet has announced pricing and 0 to 60 times for its upcoming 505-horsepower 2006 Corvette Z06. According to Chevy, the vehicle breaks the four-second barrier from 0 to 60, with a time of 3.7 seconds while still in first gear. Pricing for the newest Z06 will start at $65,800, including destination and freight charges.

“The new Corvette Z06 is the dividend from competing so successfully in endurance racing,” said Dave Hill, Corvette’s chief engineer. “It combines the strong attributes of the new, sixth-generation Corvette with the spirit, technology and know-how from the race program to form an American supercar with outstanding credentials.”

The Z06 will be available in the fourth quarter of 2005.

I can just imagine.........some guy here just bought a normal 05 C6 and apparently he has been blowing the doors off of everything around here to include a 360 and a few 911's. I don't think it is 100% stock though, sounds a bit tougher than a normal vette

c6 is just plain sweet. i'm still iffy on the new design direction, but does it really matter, when all it shows off is the wide ass?

now how's some employee pricing for the z06? ^^

Unfortunately, the employee pricing discount doesn't apply to the Vette.

thanks J, i figured that'd be the case, but since they're all over the air w/ the commercial.

actually one of my friends from way back is in the commercial. she's the cute Chinese girl towards the end of the commercial. (the long lengthy one) in the shorter version she gets cut out.. i rarely see her, but i guess i'll ask her about it when i get a chance ^^
