Im in the market for a 2006 Corvette Coupe. I'd like to see some
real-world 0-60 times for it, but in the context of an article
describing how the car was launched and what 0-60 times they got. I am
NOT looking for raw numbers without any description or discussion. The
chevy website states a 0-60 time of 4.2 seconds, and I want to know if
this is for real.
For example:
http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060306/FREE/60223011/1007/FREE
Talks about how they were getting ~5 sec 0-60 times until they started
changing gears at different points, and then the 0-60 time improved,
but still fell short of the advertised 4.2 sec.
NOTE: The 2006 corvette coupe is available as a base model, with a Z51
package, and as the Z06 model. I am not interested in the Z06 model,
as it costs $20k more than the base model. I am interested in the base
model or the base model with the Z51 package. |
