Since its reintroduction in 2001, the track-focused Z06 performance package has, with few exceptions, epitomized the last word in Corvette performance, a position it holds to this day. The 2016 Z06 was the complete package, beginning with the vaunted LT4 all-aluminum 6.2L V-8 engine delivering 650 HP and 650 lb-ft of torque through the combined magic of dry-sump oiling, direct fuel injection, 10.0:1 compression, Active Fuel Management, variable valve timing and a more efficient intercooled Eaton supercharger. The Z06 also featured massive Michelin P285/30ZR19 front and 335/25ZR20 rear tires, which were mounted on wider 19x10-inch front and 20x12-inch rear spin-cast aluminum wheels. The wider wheels and tires necessitated wider front and rear fenders and a unique rear fascia, visually distinguishing the Z06 from the standard Stingray. Additional Z06 features included larger front fender vents, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, special spring and damping rates, performance exhaust and Carbo Flash badging. Offered at just 1,989 actual miles, this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 convertible brims with the features that constitute the ultimate iteration of this classic Corvette model. With this Z06 sharply festooned in Shark Grey metallic paint with a power-operated gray convertible top and brightly contrasting Adrenalin Red interior, it’s 3LZ option package is the most comprehensive available, complementing such standard features as Apple CarPlay, Sirius XM satellite radio, MP3, MyLink, OnStar and 4G LTE with the memory package, head-up display, Napa leather heated and ventilated power Competition Sport seats, power heated outside mirrors, a Bose Premium sound system, navigation, universal home remote, suede upper interior trim, the performance data/ video recorder and a leather-wrapped instrument panel, console and doors. In addition to that impressive roster of features, this premium low-mileage Z06 convertible also offers the $7,995 Z07 Performance Suspension package, FAY Carbon Fiber Interior Appearance Package, carbon fiber visible exterior trim and carbon flash painted outside mirrors, carbon flash full-length dual racing stripes, battery protection, Z06 black aluminum wheels and a bonus, framed Crossed Flags print.
