Overview

Competing in the midsize coupe segment, the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe is a direct competitor to the Jaguar XKR Coupe and the Nissan GT-R Coupe. We can also consider the Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe which is much more expensive than the other mentioned coupes. The Z06 Coupe starts off at an MSRP of $74,375, with 3 trims in the lineup. Each trim is offered with a 7.0L V8 engine and a 6-speed manual transmission, producing 505 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. Through this powertrain, the Z06 Coupe manages a 0-60 of 3.9 seconds and a combined fuel economy of 18 MPG.

Buying Advice

The Z06 comes in a single well appointed trim level. We recommend opting for the available Ultimate performance package that adds carbon-ceramic brakes, lightweight black wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup run-flat tires, an adaptive suspension, Performance Traction Management, and a larger spoiler.
