Used 2006 Chevrolet Corvettes: Z06 Performance And Chevy Corvette Convertibles

General Motors' Chevrolet is a trusted name in sports cars. Over the years, Chevrolet cars have made their way onto the silver screen and into the lyrics of numerous pop songs. In particular the Chevy Corvette has made a large impact on the sports car industry since its introduction in 1953. The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette is a one-year-old model of the Corvette and has a lot too offer in terms of appearance, style and above all, performance.
The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette is a great sports car with no limitations on who can drive or afford it. It is very high performance and is manufactured with very powerful engines. Z06 is the specific model name for the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette. The z06 is manufactured with a v8 engine that operates at 542 horsepower. Other remarkable qualities of the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette include ABS breaks and acceleration of 0-62mph in 3.7 seconds. The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette, like all Corvettes before it, is available as either a two-door coupe or a convertible.
Chevrolet is favorably known as a manufacturer that offers relatively affordable cars considering their high level of performance. The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette is so powerful in its performance that “Inside Line's” Editor-In-Chief, Scott Oldham, indicates it can easily out perform a Ferrari F430 – and for a lot less money. However, a brand new 2006 Chevrolet Corvette can potentially cost a base price of $75,000. While this price is actually a great deal for such a high performance sports car, someone looking for a more economically reasonable 2006 Chevrolet Corvette might turn to a used corvette instead.
CarsDirect.com, a Web site that features detailed information on nearly any car including the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette, indicates that the Chevrolet Corvette is the best high-performance value in America. CarsDirect.com recommends buying a used Corvette for financial reasons. A used 2006 Chevrolet Corvette avoids the depreciation rates of a new one. CarsDirect.com also indicates a used Corvette depends on factors such as where the car is purchased, whether or not it is certified and its resale value. A quick search on CarsDirect.com results in several used 2006 Chevrolet Corvette listings including one for just $48,999 – over 50% cheaper than a brand new 2006 Chevrolet Corvette.
In addition to providing their own used Corvette listings, CarsDirect.com also provides links to several other Web sites that offer new and used 2006 Chevrolet Corvette listings. One such site is Automotive.com. Automotive.com provides fairly extensive listings of the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette based on location. For example, a black, used, 2006 Chevrolet Corvette with about 17,000 miles is for sale by a dealer in Phoenix, AZ for just $39, 991 – an unbelievable deal for a car of this magnitude.
Chevrolet continues to pleasantly surprise and satisfy a wide and loyal fan base with their innovative, high performance vehicles and reasonable prices. The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette is amongst a long line of reliable Chevrolet sports cars that have a lot to offer prospective drivers. Reasonable price plus performance is the timeless equation that Chevrolet lives by.
