50th Anniversary Edition
2004 Commemorative Edition

A lot of people believe that 2001 Corvette was the first to offer the Z06 package, they're wrong. The first Z06 was introduced as an option on the 1963 Stingray. It was a performance legend from day one.

A super-rare factory racer (only 199 were built), the Z06 included a fuel-injected, 327-cubic-inch V8, , special suspension, metallic brake linings, heavy duty shocks, stabilizers, knock off aluminum wheels, and a long-distance (36-gal.) fuel tank. Now this history-making-designation returns - on the quickest, most agile Corvette ever.
