Vehicle Description
Chevrolet introduced their newest seventh generation of Corvette,
or C7, in 2014. It was beautifully restyled with crisper lines
taking on a dramatically new form and earning back the Stingray
badge once again! Under the hood would lie the reengineered LT1
6.2L V8 now featuring Direct Injection fuel technology, and Active
Fuel Management allowing the engine to preserve fuel by shutting
down cylinders under light driving conditions. One optimizes fuel
burn efficiency while the other optimizes fuel economy. In
combination with a new 8-speed automatic transmission and 2.41 axle
ratio, it could prove up to 29 miles per gallon cruising the
highway! The fresh look of the new C7 Stringray continued to
demonstrate its dominance in the sports car arena!
That effort was further emphasized with the return of the Z06
performance model in 2015. The upgraded LT4 V8 utilized a compact
supercharger/intercooler combination, dry sump lubrication,
titanium intake valves, forged aluminum pistons, stainless steel
exhaust manifolds, and lightweight aluminum balancer to produce an
incredibly balanced 650 horsepower and 650 ft. lbs. of torque!
Capable of turning blisteringly fast 0-60mph times of around 3
seconds, and quarter mile romps at just 11.5 seconds! Stopping
power comes from massive Brembo 6-piston front/4-piston rear brake
calipers and two-piece rotors. It was considered the most capable
production Corvettes of all time and earned the attention of other
supercars from around the world!
Offered here is a one-owner, special-ordered 2016 Chevrolet
Corvette 3LZ Stingray Z06 Convertible finished in gloss Black
exterior and matching black convertible top with an Adrenaline Red
leather interior with sueded microfiber accents throughout! The 3LZ
trim package fully outfitted the cabin with all the creature
comforts you could ask for. These include 8L90 8-speed automatic
transmission with paddle shift, Bose Premium 10-speaker audio
system, heads-up display, Competition Sport Seats with heat and
ventilation, keyless entry, remote start, Performance Data
Recorder, Magnetic Ride Control, dual zone climate-control, power
folder convertible top, and more!
Outside, the Z06 is all about downforce and stability. It's
composite and carbon fiber reinforced body panels were stretched
2.2" wider up front and 3.15" at the rear to accommodate the 19x10"
& 20x12' wide wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport tires. These
enhancements along with hydroformed aluminum frame and lightweight
suspension components add 20 percent more structural rigidity than
previous models, even with the convertible. In fact, the weight of
the coupe and convertible variants are nearly identical! Add in the
Corvette's launch control, active handling, traction control, and
electronic limited-slip differential, it is a blast to operate at
any driver skill level!
This stellar, one-owner example will come with both original key
fobs, owner's manuals, factory battery charger, cargo net, perfect
CarFax report, production line option code sheet, and all original
exterior paint. It received new Continental Extreme Contact
ultra-high performance all-season tires in May 2021. Please call
