Chevrolet has officially announced the 2015 Corvette Z06 will have a starting price of $78,995 for the coupe and $83,995 for the convertible.
It will be offered in three trim levels and all feature a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine which produces 650 hp and 881 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the wheels via a seven-speed manual or an optional eight-speed automatic transmission.
Customers can order a $2,995 Carbon Fiber Ground Effects package which allows the Corvette Z06 to produce true aerodynamic downforce for increased stability at high speeds. The package adds a functional carbon fiber front splitter, carbon fiber rocker panels and a larger rear spoiler.
For the ultimate performance, the Z07 Performance package is available for $7,995, adding Brembo carbon ceramic-matrix brake rotors that improve braking performance and contribute to better handling through reduced unsprung weight. The Z07 package adds larger winglets to the front splitter, along with an adjustable, see-through center section on the rear spoiler for track use. With this package, the Corvette Z06 delivers the most aerodynamic downforce of any production car GM has tested.
