Welcome Back: 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

The challenge; go flat out in one gear!


This is the kind of car that set the Top Gear Test Track on fire...literally. Well, Mr. Clarkson, don't even blame Tiff and Vicky for being responsible on the barn arson that destroyed Top Gear TV props back in 2007 (such jealousy of course...). Don't even blame the man who previously owned a Toyota pickup that with several tortures, it's still alive and immortal. Don't even blame the Southerners since the US Special. And don't even blame someone from the English Channel. Blame it on the one that once set the Top Gear props on fire; the fiery 7.0L-powered Corvette Z06.

Seven liters of American-friendly fire, over 500BHP of power, weighs less than the standard Corvette, and cheaper than the Ferrari 575M Maranello by a 100,000 Pound margin (WOW), that's how Corvette Z06 did set the Top Gear Test Track on fire...literally.




While this seven-litre monster no Ferrari, it does manage to set a seriously impressive time when its handed over to the the Stig, 1:22.4 to be exact. Sadly though, Jeremy Clarkson made fun of the Corvette's sat-nav system for being TOO American like for instance; it will only find a nearest Burger King, McDonalds, Pizza Hut, or any other fast food chain nearest you.

Anyway, this 7.0L monster makes the most BRUTAL noises and it feels like it was fueled with The Fury. The Z06 is perfect enough to set every racetracks in Forza 4 to its reign of fire. We really wonder if this one caused the barn arson that destroyed most of the Top Gear props back in 2007, way before Series 10 began.
