The special edition C6 comes with with Crystal Red Tintcoat, new exclusive wheels, a titanium-colored leather interior, 427-embroidered seats and floor mats, and Z06 sill plates. Pedestrians will know how special your car is when they see the "427" badges and graphics adorning the exterior. Inside, <a href="http://rfyd.org/cooksey.html">Wil Cooksey</a>, the soon-to-retire Bowling Green Corvette plant manager of 15 years, will personally sign each model's armrest.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/corvette-427-limited-edition/641330/"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/02/427vettewheel_215.jpg" alt="" /></a>Chevy will only build 427 of the cars for the North American market and another 78 for everyone else, for a total run of only 505. That is, not coincidentally, the horsepower rating of this American sports car. Buyers will have to come up with $84,195 to park one in their garage -- about a $13,000 premium over the mass-production <a href="http://autos.aol.com/cars-Chevrolet-Corvette/overview">Z06</a>. Want nav? That'll be another $1,750. <span style="font-style: italic;">Thanks, Keith, for the tip!</span><br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/corvette-427-limited-edition">Corvette 427 Limited Edition Z06</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/corvette-427-limited-edition/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/02/427vettebrakes_1280_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/corvette-427-limited-edition/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/02/427vettels7_1280_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/corvette-427-limited-edition/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/02/427vette_1280_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: GM via <a href="http://www.corvetteblogger.com/index.cfm/2008/2/14/Introducing-the-2008-Corvette-427-Limited-Edition-Z06">Corvette Blogger</a>]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/14/2008-corvette-427-limited-edition-z06-big-engine-big-price-sm/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>2008 Corvette 427 Limited Edition Z06: Big engine, big price, small run</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/14/2008-corvette-427-limited-edition-z06-big-engine-big-price-sm/">2008 Corvette 427 Limited Edition Z06: Big engine, big price, small run</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 14 Feb 2008 08:28:00 EST.
