Chevy’s C6 or sixth-generation Corvette was sold between 2004 and 2013. Designed by Tom Peters, the C6 was a comprehensive redesign of America’s favorite sports car. Out went pop-up headlamps, primarily due to tightened pedestrian safety regulations that made this iconic feature a nightmare to engineer. But that’s probably the only negative thing about the C6. Everything else is enduringly positive, from the increased passenger cabin space despite the shorter overall length of the car, the new and more potent V8 under the hood, the improved handling and dynamics, plus more good things. Chevy also brought out the Z06 as the successor to the C5’s ZR1 high-performance derivative. The Z06 came with a massive 427ci small-block under the hood plus several performance improvements. Today, we have a rather special variant, in the form of this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32. ust 505 examples of this special edition were ever produced, making it quite rare. Who is Wil Cooksey? A legendary Corvette plant head who worked his way to the top and left quite a mark on the Corvette for years after his retirement in 2008.

Exterior and Interior
Wearing a Crystal Red Metallic Tintcoat paint job, this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32 is a car that you’ll always want to steal a glance at. With a black over-the-top stripe, silver alloy wheels and quad exhaust pipes, it’s every bit the powerful and agile sports car that the Corvette is known to be. Specialties of the Z06 on the exterior include carbon fiber front fenders, balsa wood and carbon composite floors, and, most tellingly, larger front and rear fenders for a more pumped-up stance. The interior of this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32 is highly equipped, since the Corvette is a luxury grand tourer. Dual-zone climate control was reintroduced for the C6, and a touchscreen infotainment system was fitted too. A Bose speaker system is standard, as found on the current C8 generation too. Other things like power windows, power mirrors, power door locks and a trip computer are present, too.

Engine
