Check out this video from HorsePower Obsessed where he covers the big differences of the base model C8 Corvette Z06 vs the Track packaged and track focused C8 Z06 with the bigger wing shown at the Nürburgring testing.

Better Upgraded Ceramic Brakes
Better Suspension
Better Aero, bigger Wing vs the duckbill type spoiler that Racing Sport Concepts makes.
Better Cup2 R Tires
Carbon Fiber Wheel Options
These are some of his guess from the spy videos what do you think will be the big differences between the base model C8 Z06 Corvette vs. the Track package track focused C8 Corvette Z06 Z07?
Also, what do you think will be the big differences between the base model C8 Corvette Stingray Z51 vs. the C8 Z06? And what do you think the C8 Z06 pricing will start at?
Check out this video from Paragon Performance where they cover all the items they have available they personally used on their own C8 Corvette for the track.
We have been covering the Paragon Performance C8 aftermarket site since they launched back in October 2020 when we launched this C8 Corvette Blog too. We have also bought many parts from them for our Chalk Grey C8 Corvette including axels, taillight tint vinyl, and Girodisc rotors with Carbotech brake pads which really help if you have a C8 Corvette with squealing brakes.
Also, since we changed out our C8 Corvette wheels from Vossen Wheels to BC Forged Wheels we are going to lower our C8 even more with their lowering springs to compliment the collars we got from Cicio Performance before they made them as well.
Check out this video from YouTuber Brink of Speed where he goes over pricing the 2023 C8 Corvette Z06. He is going to the C8 Z06 unveiling on October 26th, in Los Angeles at the Petersen Museum.
He uses a C7 Z06 Corvette Price Configurator to as a reference point to the new C8 Z06 Corvette which everyone thinks will be starting in the $90k range which would be about 8k more then that C7 Corvette pricing started out as.
Check out the C8 Corvette Z06 pricing, options, specs he chose to come up with a $117,000 price for the New Z06 C8 Corvette.
Check out this video by CarSpyMedia on YouTube where they claim to have video footage of the new C8 Z06 and C8 Corvette ERay testing together at the GM Test Center.
Some people in the comments of the video are saying this is just the base model C8 Corvette Z06 vs. the track inspired C8 Z06 with the Z07 package which included the bigger spoiler or wing. We tend to agree because the reveal is coming out for the new Z06 Corvette and they have shown a photo of one version of it already that looks like one of the Corvettes that are under camo in this video.
We have covered the C8 Corvette E Ray model before but as the C8 Z06 reveal approaches at the end of October there has been a lot more footage, photos, and videos of the new C8 Corvette models that are about to be released.
2022 Chevrolet C8 Corvette E-Ray Hybrid Prototype Spied Testing Together With Z06 at GM Test Center
Sound on! I have taken a new spy video of the hybrid-electric Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray during some hot laps on the Nürburgring.
Check out this video by the Dobre brothers on their Dobre Cars channel where they have a 1000 horsepower Lamborghini Aventador and a C8 Corvette race a Tesla Model S Plaid.
The C8 Corvette driver Sarah wouldn’t say how much horsepower and although it has a great launch even stock the Tesla Plaid is just a beast for anything in the streets other than the 2.4 million dollar Rimac.
Model S Plaid vs 1000hp Lamborghini vs Corvette C8
In the video you can see the C8 Corvette has a great launch but dies during the runs. Although it probably is modded with exhaust or bolt ons it doesn’t look like a 1000 horsepower C8 Corvette.
Check out this video from Speed Phenom where he takes delivery of a new 2022 C8.R Edition Corvette that has the sticker package and plaque and he possibly finds a hint to the new C8 Z06 RPM display?
Recently, Rick Corvette Conti said he has seen the engine, interior and some new features too was this what he was hinting at too?
You can see now in the video when in this new Track Display mode it tells you when to shift and goes from Green, Yellow to Red for the shift points.
If you click “numerical” in the tachometer Track mode you can see the RMP gauge giving the exact RPM real time read out. And when you start driving it will show you the shift points. This could be a preview into the new C8 Z06 numerical RPM tachometer display.
IS THIS Z06 MODE? SECRET 2022 C8 CORVETTE RACE DISPLAY FOUND! | POV

Here’s another update of the Protective Film Solutions C8 Corvette build where they add new tires, aftermarket wheels, and suspension to lower the C8 Corvette and get rid of that ugly wheel gap and stock OEM C8 Corvette wheels.
Chevrolet just revealed the 2023 C8 Corvette Z06 BASE model on Twitter and Instagram and we are seeing mixed messages from potential customers and Corvette fans online.
Also, Chevrolet is really teasing the new C8 Z06 since we all know from the Nurburgring videos of the C8 Z06 that there are going to be variants and a track focused C8 Z06 with a bird like wing with a Z07 package.
It will be interesting to see what happens on October 26th when we get to see every C8 Z06 variant and option including the details of the flat plane crank engine, C8 Z06 convertible, performance numbers, C8 Z06 colors, and possible weight reduction with a magnesium DCT.

In this video from Cars, Costs and Technology on his take on C8 Corvette Pricing. Do you think he is right and the C8 Corvette pricing will come down?
He does say its going to hold it’s value and thinks it will stay above what you paid for it but thinks the 25-30k mark ups are going to go away. Funny enough we posted about the C8 Z06 is going to be marked up as researched from us personally and by one of Speed Phenom’s videos. And most dealers have lists of over 1000 people wanted a C8 Z06 and again is going to be hard to get and marked up.
The most we seen in an email from a Chevy dealer is they are going to mark up a C8 Corvette Z06 $200,000. And most are saying they will mark it up $25-$50k. There are only a few dealers like Ciocca Corvette, Macmulkin, Criswell, and Whitmoyer that are selling at MSRP but there wait times and lists are so long it can take a year or more to get it at that price.
So not really sure how much the C8 Corvette pricing will come down if at all in the next year since its going to be hard to get a C8 Z06 and the production levels of the C8 Corvette is still a lot lower than the C7 Corvettes. And C7 Corvettes are still selling for high prices with the used car market, inflation, strike, plant closures, and chip shortages. There really hasn’t been any sign from Chevy or General Motors they are going to double production. And the C8 Z06 is just going to create even more buzz for the brand and people wanting to get a C8 Corvette even if they can’t get the C8 Z06.
2023 C8 Corvette Z06 Pricing
Recently we posted another article about the 2023 C8 Corvette Z06 pricing starting at $88,000 based on a build sheet which is close to two Chevy dealers saying it was going to start at $87,000. Read more here and watch these videos.
However we will have the C8 Corvette Z06 Pricing by the end of March 2022 which has been speculated to start in $87,995 to $92,995 range for the base model C8 Z06 vs the C8 Corvette Z06 Z07 package with the carbon fiber wheels and all of the carbon fiber options.
