Default Z06 C6rs

Time to call in that favor from Santa. Pratt & Miller Engineering will begin taking orders for its Corvette C6RS this December, confirming rumors of a production version after its official debut last week at SEMA. Deliveries of the 600-hp, 600 ft-lbs. monster 'Vette will begin in April next year, as long as you can provide a donor car (C6 coupe, convertible or Z06) and the $185,000 necessary to complete the build.

In addition to the Katech-modified 8.2-liter V8, copious quantities of carbon fiber replace many of the standard components, while 18x11-inch wheels up front and 19x13.6-inch BBS wheels out back cling to the corners of the C6RS, which is a full 1.6-inch wider than a standard Z06.

Id go for a lingenfelter for that price, 185k and only 600hp seems weak to me.

If that hood didn't have freakin fish gills on it it would be complete. Otherwise, the heat extractors have to go

I like everything but the engine, spending that kind of dough for a lower redline and the kind of power that a mild LS7 would produce is crazy. I would almost rather do the APS TT kit to a stock Z06 and do the wheels/tires and body kit!

Price is a little high. If I wanted something like that I would just wait for someone else to do it and then buy if from them for 100k.

Theres a sucker born everyday. Maybe Bill Heard will have them in stock with a $100,000 "Market Adjustment" over the $185,000 upgrade.

By the way, I'm now taking orders for my 1,000 HP package with 19 and 20 inch wheels for $250,000 plus your donor car. Call now to get on the list. Just finished the first one last month.

I looked badass in person, but not $185K+Corvette badass. The sad thing is that 99% of the population (including car guys) will not distinguish it from a Z06 with wheels.

$185K for that? Why not just buy a real Z06 in the first place and do some work to it if you want it to be a cut above the regular version?
