Have You Heard About The 2008 chevy z06
chevy corvette z06
Chevrolet has been working on a high-end Corvette to slot above the Z06 as GM's hottest sports car for some time. As you can bethink of, the ZR1 is the most powerful and most expensive Corvette model ever. GM says this is the first consensus for the 2009 ZR1. Like the original 1990 ZR1, the heart of this new model is the engine.
GM spokeswoman Carolyn Markey said the problem has caused 267 vehicle fires and six injuries, five of them minor and one moderate. Six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers will be used; the front brake pads will be twice the size of those found on the Z06. Engineers are confidant that the ZR1 will be the most fuel efficient 600 horsepower super-car on the market. GM says the ZR1 will be the first production Corvette to achieve a top speed of at least 200 miles per hour.
These exterior components are protected by a specially developed glossy, UV-resistant clear coat that resists yellowing and wear. Juechter did say that the ZR1, "will be somewhat less [fuel-efficient] than a Z06," which is currently rated at 15/24 by the EPA, "and we expect a small gas-guzzler tax [on the ZR1]. Expect to reach 60mph in the sub-4 second range. Deal must be complete and car must be paid in full by close of business that day.
Buyers will be more interested in the polycarbonate window in the bonnet that gives a view of the new engine? Heads will be from a special heat resistant aluminum alloy from the LS9's manufacturing process. Only 350 units will be built.
Chevy cars and trucks have expressive design, spirited performance and great value with standard features usually found only on more expensive vehicles. The lower clamping force reduces clutch-pedal effort. The differential is a limited slip with carbon and steel plates. Performance is amazing (obviously) .
Chevrolet delivers more-than-expected value in every vehicle category. It hates how it the world rejects the Z06 as a supercar. The Corvette ZR1 is powered by a LS9 6.2 liter V8.
For the price though, I doubt that will matter much. GM has just released some more info on the ZR1. Seeing him advocate his brand�s (and GM�s) flagship is far from surprising, and as he rattles off the car�s positives, it seems like pretty standard-issue public relations fare. The car has been known as the Blue Devil and the Corvette SS, but when it arrives in dealers this summer it will be the next incarnation of the ZR1.
Chevrolet's brawny plastic-bodied two-seater has long been a dream machine for countless enthusiasts. Cars like the ZR1 are typically weekend cars and not used for daily driving. t released the final power figures for the small-block, single camshaft V-8 , but it is reportedly capable of a minimum of 100 horsepower per liter. 2 liter supercharged small-block engine that takes it from 0 to 60 mph in 3.
The ZR1 flywheel has been improved over the 2008 Z06. The driver side half shaft is larger than the passenger side to balance the weight of the battery which is on the passenger side of the ZR1. Coil packs are identical to those used on the LS3.
