The 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition, another example of the expanded Corvette line-up, is a tribute to the 50th anniversary of Corvette’s first race in the 24 Hours of LeMans. At the same time, the car also signs as a Corvette’s effort to continue its tradition of track-to-street technology transfer. As a limited edition series, the Z06 Carbon will only be produced as many as 500 units.
The Corvette Z06 Carbon will be available in two colors of Inferno Orange and the all-new Supersonic Blue. To enhance the dynamic design as well as reduce mass and aerodynamic lift, the Z06 Carbon will be featured with black headlamps and mirrors, a ZR1-style body color spoiler, body color door handles, black carbon fiber rockers and splitter, and carbon fiber raised hood. For track events, customers can also install the Euro-styled racing numbers that come with each car.
For negative acceleration, this limited edition Z06 will boasts Brembo carbon ceramic brakes with specific dark gray metallic calipers, which were first introduced on the ZR1. Black 20-spoke 19-inch front/20-inch rear wheels complement the car’s Michelin PS2 tires. Other mechanical features include Magnetic Selective Ride Control for the first time on the Z06 and enhanced cooling. The car also features a special carbon pattern engine cover.
The Z06 Carbon will also be provided with two optional packages. The first is the Z07 performance package that includes the mechanical upgrades introduced on the Z06 Carbon, Competition Gray 20-spoke wheels, and all the chassis and cooling upgrades. The second is the CFZ Z06 carbon fiber package that includes black carbon fiber rockers, splitter and roof panel with the full-width body color spoiler. This can also be purchased with or without the Z07 package on regular Z06 models.
The 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition, as well as the new Z07 and CFZ Z06 option packages will be available in late summer.
