It will be available for purchase later in the year.
The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 70th anniversary edition may be something you have already heard of. It kind of leaked last week . By sort–of we mean that Chevy accidentally published photos and information about the anniversary model on their website. Although it wasn’t there for too long, the cat was able to get out of the bag. It turned out that the cat was not fully out from that bag.
We now have all the official information about the anniversary Corvette. It’s not just a Z06 thing. Chevrolet will offer a 70th Anniversary Edition package for the Z06 and Stingray models in 3LT trim. The package is only available on Z06 3LZ cars. This means that you won’t find any base model ‘Vette equipped with the 70th anniversary package. It can be ordered with a coupe, convertible, or both. However, even if you do not check the box, every 2023 Corvette will feature 70th Anniversary branding on its center speaker grille, and rear window.
What makes this package unique? The 70th Anniversary Edition includes unique wheels with red edges, anniversary caps, and badges. Red brake calipers, rear bumper protector, trunk cover and, on 2023 Corvette Stingray coupes with red engines, the package includes a red engine cover. The seats feature a special two-tone Ceramic leather and have contrast stitching and seatbelts. A suede steering wheel and seat inserts are included. For travelers, there is a special set with anniversary-branded luggage.
The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette 70th Anniversary Edition comes in Carbon Flash Metallic and a new shade of white, White Pearl Metallic Tri-Coat. You can choose to have stripes on top, but they are limited to gray cars and black carbon-painted ‘Vettes.
Chevrolet Vice President of Marketing Steve Majoros stated that Chevrolet’s passion for Corvette is deep. This anniversary is special because of the excitement surrounding the eighth generation of America’s iconic sports car. “Even 70 years later, Corvette still makes people smile and inspires children to dream about the open road.
A 70th Anniversary Edition will be the first production C8 Corvette Z06 that Barrett-Jackson has scheduled for auction. The rest will be available later in the year, but you can still use the online Z06 visualizer to let your imagination soar right now.
