I doubt the Z06 will start at $120,000. If the base vette is $60,000 then we're looking at about $85,000 to start for a Z06. Granted a decently opted Z06 will be $100,000. Loaded up probable $125k tops.

Anyway bruh. Heres some hot Z06 news.
It's coming with a twin turbo v8 with flat plane crank. That's gonna hurt!!! I can see at least a 2.5 to 60 in the Z06. Unfortunately sometimes we cant afford even the best deals on sports cars. But the Z06 sounds too good to be true. I wonder whose gonna make a corvette competitor? Ford? Nissan? Does anybody have the balls? Probably not?

They were right around the low 10s several years ago I believe.

That rear diffuser a lil O.D. BUT with those specs... True enthusiasts won't buy this car for looks when you getting this much performance for the money.
