C8 Chevy Corvette Z06 heard in spy video!

Almost a year has passed since the official presentation of the latest generation Chevrolet Corvette, the C8. Now, however, it seems that its extreme variant, the Z06, is already in the process of running in the test phase to land on the market as soon as possible.

As you can see from the spy images taken by the guys from Motor1, two specimens of Z06 have been caught and each of them shows its large exhausts in a central position. The first model of Corvette Z06 is the one with a rigid roof, while the second is in a convertible version. It is not easy to understand it, given the really heavy camouflage, but by observing the roof lines of the second prototype well, you can see the solutions to the continuity of the lines.

The most important change however concerns the exhaust system, which immediately catches the eye. The rumors about the next generation Z06 were going to reject the setup with outlets at the corners, and apparently proved to be true, even if the test vehicles have the same bumper as the standard C8, but modified to accommodate the origin of the wonderful sound, audible through video. From what we know, the engine should be a massive 5.5-liter V8 with a flat crank, ready to make the Corvette splash in the stratosphere. It will be a modified version of the engine in use on the Corvette C8.R.

In any case, despite being skeptical, the guys from Motor1 are sure it's not just a "strange" Stingray, but a metal and rubber Z06. The details that reveal it concern the significant increase in the width of the tires, the coverage of the rims that seems to hide carbon fiber, and what appears to be a wider air intake and positioned lower than the standard one.
