GM announced U.S. pricing for the 2023 Corvette Z06 last week, confirming the mid-engine supercar will hit the market with an approachable starting price of $106,395. The automaker has now also confirmed Canadian pricing for the vehicle, with Chevy fans north of the border facing a slightly higher starting price of just over C$128,000.
Canadian pricing for the 2023 Corvette Z06 Coupe in the entry-level 1LZ trim will start at C$128,198, including the mandatory destination freight charge. Pricing for the Coupe in the 2LZ trim, meanwhile, will start at $138,198, while the Coupe in the range-topping 3LZ trim will start at $144,198.
Trim Level | Coupe | Convertible |
---|---|---|
1LZ | $128,198 | $137,198 |
2LZ | $138,198 | $147,198 |
3LZ | $144,198 | $153,198 |
Just as in the U.S., the 2023 Corvette Z06 Convertible is quite more expensive than the Coupe. The 2023 Corvette Z06 Convertible in the entry 1LZ trim will start at $137,198, while the 2LZ trim will start at $147,198 and the 3LZ trim at $153,198. Order books for the 2023 Corvette Z06 in both Coupe and Convertible body styles will open up on July 28th, 2022 in Canada, which is the same date U.S. customers will be able to place their order.
GM also confirmed Canadian pricing for some of the Z06’s performance-focused extras. The Z07 Performance Package will start at C$10,344, bringing FE7 suspension, Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, Michelin Pilot Cup 2R ZP tires, and underbody strakes to the supercar. This package will also require the customer to order either the Visible Carbon or Carbon Flash Painted aerodynamics packages, which will cost $4,594 and $3,444, respectively. Customers who select these options can also add the optional Carbon Fiber Wheels to their vehicle which, like the aero kits, are also available with either a Visible Carbon Fiber or Carbon Flash Painted finish. The Visible Carbon wheels are priced from $13,794, while the Carbon Flash painted wheels are slightly less at $11,494.
The 2023 Corvette Z06 comes standard with GM’s new flat-plane crank 5.5L LT6 V8 engine, which is rated at 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through an upgraded dual-clutch eight-speed automatic transmission, enabling zero to 60 mph time of roughly 2.8 seconds and a top speed of around 188 mph. Production will commence at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky later this year.

The brokers and curbers will be exporting these back to the US….at current rate of exchange the Z06 is $10,000.00 less in Canada than US MSRP.
The current exchange rate between USD and C Dollars is .78. A 1LZ starting price of C$128 equals USD $99.8. But the 1LZ starting price in the US is $106. Am I missing something? So why is the car 6% less in Canada ???
It’s actually $136,105 in Canada.
$93,800. USD is $128,000 CDN
The price is basically the same as LARGE Multi National companies don’t pay high exchange rates like a normal person would.
Maybe you should learn how money works folks lol.
either way the Z06 will be hard to get your hands on in Canada unless you pre-ordered a year ago.
No corporation is selling US dollars at 1.20 Current high volume rate is about 1.27 C to US$1. The low exhange rate difference has been in existence for the C8 as well. If you take the msrp of that car and convert it to Cdn. it also is using a lower than realistic exchange rate – even if you were trading a billion of them. It would be interesting to talk to someone about why they are doing this but it’s a small win for the Cdn. side. In the past cars were often cheaper in the US (when converted to CDN$) than they are here in Canada. I bought an Infiniti brand new from a dealer in Seattle and saved almost $10,000 doing that. Today the situation is reversed. Cars are cheaper here now when converting from US$…
