2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Review: American Exotic

Join us as we review the Chevrolet Corvette Z06
The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is an excellent sports car, but in spite of its mid-engined layout, it’s not quite the budget-priced exotic that many thought it would be. It accelerates as quickly as a Porsche 911 Turbo and its 6.2-liter V8 makes torque for days, but the whole thing just feels a bit too brawny, like a mid-engined muscle car instead of a slinky Italian.
Not to worry, because the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 is here to give us a decidedly different take on American performance. Gone is the pushrod LT2, with a flat-plane-crank 5.5-liter V8 taking its place just a few inches behind the passengers’ eardrums. Perfect positioning, then, to observe the so-called LT6’s fear-inducing banshee wail of an exhaust note, especially with the convertible’s folding hardtop stowed. The engine note is a tantalizing amuse bouche to be sure, but there are plenty more amazing ingredients to the Z06’s performance.

Thanks for the review of the 670 hp corvette z06 that starts at 110 k ..
In such demand people are paying over 15 grand these days to get ownership right away.

Hi Motor1, I love the video.

What, why doesn’t the convertible have the option for the Z07 package? Guess you have to do aftermarket upgrades that sucks especially for a car at that price.

[@JasonVanPatten]

He was incorrect. The convertible Z06 can be ordered with the Z07 option if you want. Has been that way since the C8 Z06 was available.

Z06 is great, but as tested at $140K price, you can get 90% of the performance and looks in a regular c8 stingray for half the cost. Really the c8 stingray is the best bang for the buck.

Boo & Dumb! The Bank of buttons are because the it's designed as a Fighter Jet Cockpit. Where are you to pot them for heat and A/C and other functions. The Race Cars are the same. You can beat the price and performance you save over anything from Europe. Save $$$$$$$ Read up! Why has heard and seen a Ferrari not on West Coast or NY metro area.

So you agree in every way but one?
