2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Edition Allegedly Leaked Through Configurator

Images of a special edition Corvette celebrating the 70th anniversary of the famed sports car have leaked online. The photos, or rather digital images, reportedly come from Chevrolet’s official visualizer and show two color options for the celebratory model.

Although the visualizer page with the model has since gone down, making this difficult to verify, the images were posted to both CorvetteBlogger and Midenginecorvetteforum, both citing a user named Jeremy as being the one who configured the car and shared the pictures.

Per the poster, the car will be offered in White Pearl Metallic Tri-coat with optional Satin Matrix Gray Stripes or in Carbon Flash Metallic with optional Satin Black Metallic Stripes. It will also get Edge red brake calipers and Carbon flash wheels with an Edge Red Stripe, all of which is highly reminiscent of the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Centennial Edition that celebrated the automaker’s 100th anniversary.

The 70th Anniversary Edition Z06 will also get exterior badging and wheel center caps that mark out the occasion, as well as Carbon Flash mirrors and spoilers. An Edge Red engine cover, a rear bumper protector/trunk cover, and a custom luggage set with red stitching and the 70th Anniversary logo are also offered.

Inside, the Corvette gets Ceramic GT2 seats with red stitching or optional competition sports seats. To round out the look, it also gets red seat belts, a suede interior steering wheel, and 70th Anniversary logos on the seats, the steering wheel, and the sill plates.

If this is the genuine article, this Z06 follows in the grand tradition of anniversary Corvettes, as Chevrolet has celebrated the car’s 25th, 50th, and 60th anniversaries with special edition models.

The automaker is set to begin production of the high-performance Z06 on May 9, 2022, and dealers should be able to begin entering orders for the 2023 model as early as March 24, Muscle Cars & Trucks reports. That suggests that Chevrolet could be ready to unveil the 70th Anniversary Edition model officially quite soon.
