The 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 made its grand entrance on October 26th, debuting as the new go-faster variant of the mid-engine Chevy Corvette C8 lineup. In addition to a higher level of performance, the new C8 Chevy Corvette Z06 also offers a broad range of customization options, with a huge number of color and trim combinations possible.
As confirmed by Chevy representatives at the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas to GM Authority Executive Editor Alex Luft, the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 will offer an astounding 11,000 color and trim combinations. As such, it’s highly likely that many customers will have a “1-of-1” build sitting in their driveway.
Just some of the available options include 12 exterior paint colors and seven available wheel packages, the latter of which offer five finishes for the standard forged aluminum wheels, as well as optional carbon fiber wheels. There’s also six available brake caliper finishes, while the available carbon fiber aero package adds in a larger front splitter, front-corner dive planes, a massive rear wing (which GM Authority was the first to report on), and underbody aero strakes.
Inside the cabin, the 2023 Corvette Z06 offers seven interior colorways, three seat choices, six seatbelt options, and two interior carbon fiber trim packages, plus a new Stealth Aluminum trim option.
To note, the 2023 Corvette Z06 will be available as both a two-door coupe with a removable hard top panel, and as a two-door convertible with a retractable hardtop. The trim level cadence includes the 1LZ, 2LZ, and 3LZ.
As a reminder, the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 is powered by the naturally aspirated 5.5L V8 LT6 gasoline engine, rated at 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. The V8 connects to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, the latter of which is set for production at the GM St. Catharines plant in Ontario next year. The new Corvette Z06 rides on the GM Y2 platform, with vehicle assembly taking place at the GM Bowling Green Assembly facility in Kentucky. Look for the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 to go on sale next year.

Hopefully some of this spills into the C8 Stingray
That would make me hope that my 2022 gets pushed into an early 23. Hate the additional wait but new choices could be interesting.
Same here
GM is serious and willing to have conquest and returning customers to the C8. This is a wonderful concept for a vehicle that is not hand-built but mass produce to have bespoke choices.
And yet 99% of ’em will be black, white or grey… What a depressing world we live in.
Ordering the 2023 orange here. Just git approved
Chris what about Red.
Around 33% of the 2021 C8 are either Torch Red or Red Mist.
In Automobiles in general I agree that Blk, White and Gray (Silver) seem to dominate the Roads.
