The 2006/2007 Chevrolet Z06 is a real bargain at a base MSRP of $72,660 when you consider you would have to spend over $150K to match the performance of the Z06 with any other sports car. The Chevrolet Z06 is 505HP and will move from 0-60mph in under 4 seconds. What doesn’t impress me about the Z06 is the cheap appearance the interior has but what should you expect from a sports car that will perform like the Z06 for under $80K. The Z06 will also get you 26mpg on the highway and that is truely amazing for any car that puts out over 500HP.

I am the big fan of european exclusive vehicles but tthe name of Crovette has something fantastic to start love it too.
Well, I’d rather buy a Ferrari if I had to spent $150 000 on a car.
7.0 Litre engine… nearly like an army tank. This is something what even armoured cars don’t have (civilian ones) and they produce higher horsepower and offer better comfort.
