Product Description

The fifth-generation Chevrolet Corvette has generated remarkable performance figures, both on the road and on the racetrack. In 2004, the final chapter in the C5-R era, the Commemorative Edition emphasizes visual punch rather than power upgrades. Most notable is a special Le Mans Blue paint, the same hue used on the two C5-R contenders that returned to Le Mans in 2003 and narrowly missed achieving a third win in the vehicle's class in the famed endurance race. The Commemorative package includes a special shale-colored interior, with the seats incorporating Corvette cross-flags embroidered into the headrests. Also part of the mix are exterior badges acknowledging the Corvette's Le Mans success. The 2004 Z06 gets a race-inspired option in the form of a lightweight carbon-fiber hood that weighs just 20.5lbs - 10.6lbs less than the standard unit - and is constructed of unique, single-direction fibers intended to eliminate waviness, a trait common with painted carbon-fiber. Atop the paint are silver stripes with red edges, similar to the stripe package used as a Le Mans-only aesthetic on the C5-R race cars.
