Listed for sale on Bring a Trailer, this 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ convertible represents the C8 generation’s transformation into a genuine mid-engine performance car capable of challenging established European exotics. Introduced for 2023, the Z06 was engineered around the naturally aspirated 5.5-liter LT6 V8, a wider body, and a chassis developed to exploit the advantages of its mid-mounted powertrain.
This example was originally delivered to Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and was configured with approximately $50,000 in options. Among the most significant are the Carbon Fiber Aero and Z06 Ultimate Performance Packages, bringing Z07 performance suspension, Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, carbon-fiber ground effects, front dive planes, and a prominent carbon-fiber high-wing spoiler.
Finished in Torch Red, the car features a Carbon Flash-painted retractable hardtop, nacelles, and mirror caps. Its $14,000 carbon-fiber wheel package comprises 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires. Bright Red multi-piston Brembo calipers provide braking authority, while Magnetic Selective Ride Control and a front-axle lift system with memory settings further enhance its usability.
The Adrenaline Red and black leather interior is equipped with heated and ventilated GT2 bucket seats, complemented by Torch Red seatbelts and extensive carbon-fiber trim. A heated carbon-fiber and leather steering wheel incorporates carbon-fiber shift paddles, while instrumentation includes a configurable 12-inch digital display and head-up display. Other equipment includes an eight-inch Chevrolet Infotainment 3 touchscreen with navigation, a 14-speaker Bose audio system, Performance Data and Video Recorder, dual-zone climate control, and a comprehensive suite of driver-assistance features.
At the heart of the Z06 is the naturally aspirated LT6, distinguished by its flat-plane crankshaft and high-revving character. Factory output is rated at 670 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful naturally aspirated production V8 offered in a Corvette at its introduction. A red intake manifold cover and performance exhaust with selectable modes further emphasize its motorsport-inspired specification.
Power reaches the rear wheels through an eight-speed dual-clutch transaxle, completing a package that combines the immediacy of a naturally aspirated V8 with sophisticated chassis hardware and extensive carbon-fiber technology.
