With touted performance figures from Chevrolet and rave reviews from the few lucky media types that have gotten behind the wheel, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is becoming legendary before its release. With 505 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque from a hand-built LS7 engine running through a six-speed transmission, it is no wonder 0-60 acceleration times are estimated at 3.7 seconds. Chevrolet engineered the Z06 to be a world-class sports car and it appears they nailed the target.
