Vehicle Description
We could call this car a sleeper, but quite frankly, everyone
already knows not to mess with a 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. But
when it has been upgraded to a twin-turbo setup, this speedy red
Vette enters supercar territory.
The C5 Z06 was built to be a true enthusiast's Corvette. The Fixed
Roof Coupe (FRC) was the lightest and strongest Corvette
configuration. Then they shed weight wherever they could, even
including utilizing a thinner windshield. The result was the
leanest and meanest Corvette to hit the streets. But more than just
a powerful package, this example is a stunner. It has averaged only
about 1,300 miles annually, and the factory Torch Red remains
vibrant. The body looks great with the more aggressive lines and
side cooling ducts. And the badge up front end reminds you that
2003 was the Corvette's 50th anniversary. But while this has an
awesome clean and sleek stock style, the big shine of the upgraded
DUB wheels with an aggressive 18/20-inch front/rear stance lets
everyone know this Z06 is extra-special.
The black leather interior continues this car's well-presented
nature with its inviting style. It's loaded with the best features
like dual-zone climate control, power steering, power windows,
power locks, keyless entry, power mirrors, power seats, cruise
control, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth. Because
this is a modern classic, it also means modern safety features such
as dual airbags and anti-lock brakes. And the FRC was a practical
choice that offered plenty of trunk space. You'll never get tired
of watching the gauges do their dance every time you start the
engine, but the head-up display means you never have to take your
eyes off the road during performance driving. You might have also
picked up on some very handy upgrades, like the boost gauge and
digital air/fuel readout mounted on the A-pillar.
The engine bay gives the first impression of a very stock style. So
you'll love showing off the distinct red covers that signal this is
the hot LS6 motor. This fuel-injected 5.7-liter motor is already a
legend for power and robustness, but if you look closely at this
engine bay and undercarriage, you're going to notice that this one
will outpace them all. It's a twin turbocharger setup, and since
the Corvette's engine bay was already packed with power, the turbos
and wastegates are back by the exhaust tips. Pipes then send the
pressure back to the front for the intercooler and inject some
serious power. And you're going to love being fully in charge of
this enhanced powerhouse thanks to the six-speed manual
transmission. As a true competition machine, this also received its
own suspension upgrade package to make the fully independent
suspension perform at its best during high speeds. And keeping
everything in control is also the large four-wheel disc brake
package and Michelin Pilot Sport rubber.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and service
manuals. Chevy made the Z06 to be a true performer, and this is the
one that fully realizes that potential. So don't miss this monster
custom Corvette. Call today!!!
