The Corvette ZR1 is the king of the C6 generation and features a 620 HP Supercharged LS9 V8.  The enabler of the LS9’s phenomenal performance and refinement is a large, positive-displacement Roots-type supercharger with a new, four-lobe rotor design. It is augmented with an integrated charge cooling system that reduces inlet air temperature for maximum performance.

 To put the extra power to the ground the ZR1 uses a stronger 6 speed manual transmission featuring a twin-disc clutch,  As the term implies, the twin-disc clutch system employs a pair of discs, which spreads out the engine’s torque load over a wider area. This enables tremendous clamping power when the clutch is engaged. It also dissipates heat better and extends the clutch life. 

With the added power, it's also important to be able to stop quicker so the ZR1 is the first Corvette to feature Carbon Ceramic brakes which were previously only found in high priced exotics.  Of course its $100,000 price tag isn't cheap and you probably won't be seeing one everyday but relatively speaking it's still quite a bargain.

Unlike the Z06 which could be confused for a normal Corvette other than a few badges and different wheels, Chevy made sure no one will confuse the ZR1 for anything else.  Most noticeable is the see through glass in the hood showcasing the supercharged beast in all its glory.  ZR1 badges on the front fender and rear bumper will intimidate anyone even thinking about a red light challenge and once you're inside, the ZR1 logo is prominently displayed on the door sills, tach, and headrests.

 A final major difference is the 20-spoke alloy rims that measure 19 inches in diameter in the front and 20 inches in the rear. They come standard with a bright, Sterling Silver paint finish and chrome versions are optional. The wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires developed specifically for the ZR1, measuring P285/30ZR19 in front and P335/25ZR20 in the rear.

This limited edition Corvette slots between the Z06 and ZR1. Created to be the ultimate Vette for the track, the Z06 Carbon combines the lightweight N/A engine of the Z06 with the brembo brakes, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, and carbon fiber body panels from the ZR1. According to Tadge Juechter, Corvette Chief Engineer, "For technical tracks like Laguna Seca, the Z06 Carbon could shave up to three seconds off the Z06 lap time."

The Corvette Z06 Carbon will be available in two colors: Inferno Orange and the all-new Supersonic Blue. Black headlamps and mirrors, a ZR1-style body color spoiler, body color door handles, carbon fiber raised hood, and black carbon fiber rockers and splitter enhance the Z06's dynamic design and reduce mass and aerodynamic lift. For track events, customers can also install the Euro-styled racing numbers that come with each car.

An optional Z07 performance package that includes the mechanical upgrades introduced on the Z06 Carbon can be added to a regular 2011 Z06. This package also includes Competition Gray 20-spoke wheels and all the chassis and cooling upgrades.

The Corvette Stingray Concept was developed as an internal design challenge to combine classic Corvette cues with surprisingly high-tech features, modern materials, and a striking new appearance. The car is well-appointed with a clamshell hood, scissor-style doors, ergonomic seats, rear-view camera with night vision enhancement, and a high performance hybrid drive. Interactive touch controls allow the driver to customize the power and efficiency of his or her ride and share it with friends via the in-car camera system and advanced telemetrics.

The Corvette Stingray Concept also stars as "Sideswipe" in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
