2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe Starts At $106,395

Chevrolet revealed that it will open order books for the 2023 Corvette Z06 on July 28 and that, when it does, prices for the mid-engine supercar will start at $106,395 (including a $1,395 destination charge), multiple sources report.

Unveiled in November 2021, the Corvette Z06 is powered by a 5.5-liter flat-plane crank V8 that delivers 670 hp (500 kW/679 PS) and 460 lb-ft (624 Nm) of torque, which makes it the most powerful naturally aspirated engine ever fitted to a production vehicle.

It will be offered in three trim levels, 1LZ, 2LZ, and 3LZ, with equipment expected to reflect the standard Corvette‘s LT trim levels. Each will be available as either a coupe or a convertible, with a premium of about $7,000 for the drop top versions. The coupe starts at $106,395, $115,595, and $120,245 respectively, while the convertible costs $113,895, $122,595, and $127,245.

The automaker also outlined prices for some of the options that will be offered on the car this week. The Z07 Performance package adds another $8,995 to the price of the Corvette Z06. It adds FE7 suspension, Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, Michelin Pilot Cup 2R ZP tires, and underbody strakes.

The Z07 package, though, cannot be had without also adding either the Visible Carbon or Carbon Flash Painted aerodynamics packages, which add another $10,495 or $8,495 to the price of the Z06, so you’ll have to be ready to spend quite a bit to get it.

If you aren’t afraid of spending a little more, you can also get carbon fiber wheels for another $9,995 if you want them painted. If you prefer to have exposed carbon wheels, though, they will cost you $11,995. All of which means that you could conceivably pay $158,730 for a 2023 Corvette Z06 with all the bells and whistles.

That’s still a (relatively) low price, though. The 2022 Audi R8 (which makes 562 hp/419 kW/570 PS despite its two extra cylinders) starts at $148,700 in the U.S. The Porsche 911 GT3 (which also makes considerably less power), meanwhile, starts at $169,700 and the Lamborghini Huracán starts north of $250,000.

All of which reflects rather well on the 2023 Corvette Z06, which can sprint to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 2.8 seconds, continue onto a top speed of 188 mph (302 km/h), and ought to be pretty handy on the track, too.
