It is hard to believe, but it’s been a decade since the “Z06” high-performance variant of the seventh-generation Corvette was introduced to the world. Even still, its reputation as a performance powerhouse remains as strong as ever. Featured on AutoHunter is this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2LZ Coupe. It is being sold by a dealer in Sarasota, Florida, with the auction ending Tuesday, October 21, 2025, at 11:15 a.m. (PDT).
Finished in Long Beach Red Metallic over a Dark Gray leather interior, this C7 came heavily optioned as it left the assembly plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Included in the equipment list were the 2LZ Preferred Equipment Group, chromed aluminum wheels, perforated Mulan leather upholstery, Chevrolet MyLink navigation system, battery protection package, black-painted brake calipers, performance data and video recorder, carbon-fiber trim, and remote start. In total, the original retail price came to $92,370.
What made the Z06 special, anyway? It debuted at the North American International Auto Show in early 2015 and was available as a coupe or a convertible. A long list of features set it apart from lower-trim models, including a unique carbon-fiber hood, front splitter, rear spoiler, and Z06-specific cockpit appointments.
Most importantly, the Z06 packed a punch: power came from an LT4 supercharged and intercooled 6.2-liter V8 that was rated at 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. The secret ingredient for the Z06’s speed credentials was its 1.7-liter Eaton R1740 TVS supercharger. Power for this Vette is channeled to the rear wheels via a Hydramatic 8L90 eight-speed paddle-shifted automatic transmission and 2.41-ratio electronic limited-slip differential. A seven-speed manual was also available for order.
One of the things that stood out to automotive journalists regarding the Z06 was how versatile it could be. Autoweek editor Wes Raynal said, “Put the control knob in Eco or Tour and the car just cruises around town as nice as can be. Sport quickens the steering and firms the suspension a bit. Put the car in Track mode and turn off the traction control and you’re poking a tiger with a stick.”
The CARFAX report classifies this car as a one-owner vehicle with no accidents or damage on record. It started life at Sunset Chevrolet in Sarasota, Florida, and has remained in the state for its entire life. Despite having such low mileage, the car has seen regular maintenance. The most recent service was performed in November 2024 at Jenkins Chevrolet in Venice.
The auction for this stock, low-mileage 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2LZ Coupe ends Tuesday, October 21, 2025, at 11:15 a.m. (PDT).
