Since its debut in 1963 as a purpose-built factory race car, the Corvette Z06 has always represented high-revving pushrod V-8 power, track-focused suspension and brakes, and stripped-down weight-saving design. The evolution of the Z06, which gained momentum with the C5, reached a peak with the C7, as Corvette engineers delivered unprecedented performance and refinement under the Z06 badge.
This 2017 Corvette Z06, now offered on Bring a Trailer, is one of only 1,552 C7 examples in Black Rose Metallic and has just 4,027 miles. It combines the 3LZ Premium Equipment Group and Z07 Ultimate Performance Package with carbon fiber hood, roof, and interior accents, black Z06 wheels, a performance exhaust, and carbon ceramic brakes with yellow calipers. The cabin offers heated and ventilated power-adjustable bucket seats in Kalahari leather with a two-tone dashboard, center console, and door panels.
At its heart, the C7 Z06 houses a supercharged, direct-injection, dry-sump LT4 V-8 producing 650 HP at 6,400 RPM and 650 lb-ft of torque at just 3,600 RPM. Power flows to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and an electronic limited-slip differential. Performance figures are impressive: 0–60 MPH in 3 seconds, quarter-mile in 11.1 seconds at 127 MPH, 1.19 G on the skidpad, and just 128 feet to stop from 70 MPH.
Standard features like Magnetic Selective Ride Control and electronic-assist power steering integrate seamlessly with the engine, driveline, suspension, and braking systems, creating a thrilling and precise driving experience on track.
