The top end Z06 moves from zero to sixty in four seconds flat, according to Chevrolet. Even the base automatic can get there in 5 seconds, which, given the heavy clutch and stick, is an argument for buying the automatic.

The race car is legal now on streets and it is equipped with a V10 engine, with 600 hp.

Clients can chose for a less weight by buying the “Hard Core” package, which eliminates few elements, like the audio system. SRT10 ACR is waited to appear at the second half of 2008.
