Notes

The Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06 is a two-door coupe made in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in the heart of America, from 2007 until 2013. This front-engine rear-wheel drive has a six-speed manual transmission, and a naturally aspired 6.0 L LS2 V8 direct-injection engine. It produces a maximum power of 513 PS (506 bhp – 377kW) at 6300 RPM and torque of 637nm (469 lb-ft) at 4800 RPM. Its top velocity can reach 199mph (320 km/h), going from 0-62mph in 4.2 seconds. The Z06 has a curb weight of 3360lbs and fuel consumption of 14.7 Liters/100km.

Custom-designed Pfadt coil-over shocks replaced the front and rear mono springs on the Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06's suspension. It has ventilated discs brake system on all four wheels. It is lighter and stronger than its predecessors, so imponent you will not be even close to the limits of this car while using public roads. The responsibility of road holding, ride comfort, and handling behavior depend on a pair of Michelin Pilot Super Sport 275/35 R18 tires on the front and 325/30 R19 on the back. The price tag for this American icon is around $40,000 on the market nowadays.
