Last week GM announced a special package of racetrack upgrades for the 'Vette and Z06 dubbed the Corvette Competition Sport (CS) package and now, the General has released pricing. The cost of a base Corvette coupe with the package is $55,655, a bump of $3,350 over a 1LT coupe with the Z51 option pack and NPP exhaust. The price of a CS equipped Z06 is $77,500 w/ DFC, a jump of $2,725 over a 1LZ Corvette Z06.
As outlined before, the kit includes the Z51 Performance Package, the NPP performance exhaust system, a differential cooler and a set of racing pedals. Power peaks at 436 hp on the base Coupe and 505 hp on the Z06. Besides the steak, there's a bit of sizzle. Visual mods for both versions include Competition Gray stripes, wheels and headlamps, a special engine cover, and the "Jake" and CSR logos inside and out. A set of racing numbers will also be delivered to the buyer based on the particular car's build sequence.

It's good to see the vette attempting yet again to follow in the viper's footsteps. First by Lutz ripping off the front of the viper with the new Z06, and now by crossing over into ACR territory (in spirit at least).

Detroit really — and I mean REALLY — needs to hire some GOOD graphic designers. Their graphics suck.

absolutely. it looks like a local dealer slapped some crap on it so they could charge 4k extra for a "limited edition".
mazda dealer tried to do that with me, spray painted emblems gold. wanted $$ for it. I told them I wanted a discount because I'd have to pry off and replace the tacky emblems.

Those graphics are awful. Looks like a cheesey pace car edition.

That looked like a pretty sweet package. The paint scheme is awesome, and it includes my favorite vette wheels. ...and then I saw the numbers on the side, and I threw up in my mouth a bit...

For the budget minded, it might be a nice upgrade, but to make a variant of the Vette with the ZR1 available almost makes you want to point at it and laugh. Ok, I really did laugh at it. Any other year without the bad ass ZR1 and it might be ok, although I think the paint scheme fails regardless.
