2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition

Decent car. However, this car doesn't seem to have a purpose or a market. What is the reason for its existence? the price difference between a z06 and a zr1

Decent car. However, this car doesn't seem to have a purpose or a market. What is the reason for its existence? the price difference between a z06 and a zr1 is not too big. this car will be priced somewhere between the two, so price wise it is even closer to the zr1 than the z06 is. now, why would any potential buyer choose this car instead of paying a few thousand more to get the top of the line zr1?

Z06 MSRP = $74,375

ZR1 MSRP = $110,300

That over a $35,000 split.

Corvette needs a makeover.

It's looked virtually the same for the last decade it seems.....

I strongly disagree that it looks virtually the same. However, it does NEED a make-over, and GM's "special edition" models just aren't going to keep cutting it. We need a C7, and it better not be a flop or "C6.5".
