2015 Corvette Z06: Faster than Lambo, Ferrari or McLaren. From AutoWeek: The 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 will come out of the box with a sub-3-second 0-60 time and sub-11-second quarter-mile time. The seven-speed manual can only achieve a slug-like 3.2 seconds.
A: Yes, if you're looking at a certified pre-owned, late model used 'Vette, with a warranty if at all possible. A newer used Corvette is a big investment, mostly over $35,000. And it's a technologically complex vehicle, so you want to be as sure as possible that it's been serviced, inspected, and guaranteed.
Chevrolet has confirmed that the 2020 Corvette Stingray with the track-capable Z51 Performance package will reach a top speed of 184 mph, down from the 194 mph officially recorded by the base C8.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray revealed
General Motors North America President Barry Engle told Motor Trend this week that the radically redesigned Corvette is completely sold out for 2020, even though Chevy hasn't started building it yet.In short, while the Corvette definitely uses mechanical parts more expensive then other Chevrolet cars, it is simply a more expensive Camaro. Supercar performance only costs $70,000 - you need to tune the engine, improve the brakes, upgrade the material parts, lower the drag coefficient, and viola!
Production for the United States in 2020 is roughly 40,000 units. The United Auto Workers' strike forced a production delay for the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette until February 2020 rather than the original plan to start building them in very late 2019.
You are custom ordering a 2020 C8 Corvette and you think you're ready to go. You've given your deposit to the dealer, you have selected all of your colors and options, and your dealer has entered the order and given you an order number. Now you just have to sit back and wait for the car to show up.
Corvettes since the C5 have been really good cars, and the C6/7 seem to hold value even better than their predecessors. The C7 in particular is a great design, and by virtue of being the last front-engined Corvette, I think old-timers will prefer it to the C8. IMO C7s won't drop that quickly.
The C7 Corvette ZR1 has some pretty fantastic specs and is the highest horsepower Corvette built to date. With 755 horsepower and 715 torque it has more "get up and go" than you'd likely ever need. Even though that by itself is quite amazing, that's just one of the reasons this car is going up in value.
The C7 generation of Chevrolet Corvette was produced between 2013 and 2019 for the model years 2014 through 2019. As the name implies, it's the seventh-generation Corvette and the first since the C3 to use the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray name.
It is commonly mistaken by liberals that the "C" stands for "Corvette", however on five of the models, the "C" actually stands for Colbert."

| C7 | 2016 | 40,689 |

From factory all c6z are manual. There are plenty of converted cars. It is just expensive to swap to an auto, but can be done.
For the most part, the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette launched with considerable praise. It's hard to fault a 490-horsepower, mid-engined V8 supercar you can buy for under $60,000. To address that last point, we offer these renderings from j.b.cars on Instagram that recast the C8 as a Corvette with the engine in front.

The first mid-engine Corvette has finally been built. Car number 001 rolled off Chevy's Bowling Green, Ky., assembly line on Monday. The car was originally scheduled to be built last fall, but production was delayed by the UAW strike against GM.According to GM, nearly a million 2020 Corvettes had been configured by the end of July.
Chevrolet has already said the C8 Corvette is designed with potential electrification in mind, but at the launch of the 2020 Corvette, Autocar asked a member of the Chevy team if it would be obscene to assume that an electrified Corvette might sport a mild-hybrid powertrain or use a front-axle electric motor to add all
The 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray has arrived, but there will be many more high-performance Corvette models to come. We expect that the Z06, ZR1, and hybrid versions will use a 5.5-liter flat-plane-crank V-8 engine in various states of tune, making between 600 and 1000 horsepower.
Each day, the factory turns out about 148 Corvettes. Counting the painting of the many panels, the process takes between two and two and a half days. There are just less than 1,000 employees working the line, mostly turning out Corvettes, though the factory also builds eight Cadillac XLRs every day.
The car is a black Corvette Z06 model, which boasts a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine pumping out 650 horsepower. It'll forever be known as the last front-engined Corvette, as the 2020 Corvette Stingray moves the engine behind the driver, where it's mounted in the middle.
The Supercharged Corvette Z06 debuted in 2015 and a total of 39,940 Z06s were built in the five-year run.
With the Porsche, it takes only 2.9 seconds, but the Corvette needs just 2.8, making it the quickest factory Corvette to 60 mph in history. The advantage carries through the quarter, the Corvette trapping in 11.1 seconds at 123.2 mph and the 911 in 11.2 seconds at 124.3. Oddly, the Porsche looks and feels quicker.

So, Corvette do not depreciate in value at the same rate as regular cars and trucks because they are more than just appliances.

Corvettes are very reliable if taken care of. My friend has had a pretty heavily abused early LS3 C6 for a few months. All he's had to do was a new clutch because the previous owner was inept at driving a stick, and he threw in a new master and slave cylinder too while he worked on it.
