'Think of the Corvette Z06 as the most amazing version of a sports car that is already amazing by anyone's measure.' Car And Driver

The new C7 incarnation of Chevrolet's long-running Corvette debuted at the North American Auto Show at the beginning of 2013. The design, available in both targa coupe and convertible form with manual or automatic transmission, retained the traditional rear-drive front-engine layout coupled with a more angular body shape mixing the familiar glass fibre with carbon fibre, now bristling with aerodynamic aids. Great strides were also made in improving the fit and finish of the interior, whilst the electronics package provided everything and more for the serious driver including a Cosworth-developed Performance Data Recorder with video and audio, and telemetry with Track, Sport, Touring and Performance data display depending on your mood!

The ultimate specification was the Z07 Performance Package, as fitted to this manual transmission example, which had been introduced in 2015. The supercharged 6.2-litre LT4 V8 power unit now produced some 650bhp and 650lb/ft of torque driving through a 7-speed Tremec manual transmission, featuring selectable drive modes and Active Rev Matching. Revised suspension geometry, Michelin Sport Cup runflat tyres, Brembo ceramic brakes, adjustable rear spoiler, electronically controlled limited slip differential and other aerodynamic goodies helped keep the prodigious performance in check.

Finished in a stunning shade of Laguna Blue with Black hide interior, black aluminium wheels and dark grey calipers, this extremely low mileage Z07 optioned example, has previously formed part of an important collection of supercars and is offered with less than 300 miles recorded. The car's comprehensive specification further includes the Carbon Fibre Exterior Styling Pack, Battery Protection Pack and Performance Data Recorder. UK registered, this amazing Corvette is accompanied by its wallet, book pack and Swansea V5 document.
