C6 Corvette 2005-Present
The time came for a new Corvette and the C6 Corvette was introduced as a 2005 model. This was the first Corvette since 1962 with exposed headlamps and it would soon become the first Corvette with factory-equipped forced induction.

The C6 Corvette was redesigned and re-engineered based on the very successful C5; as such, it retains the best parts of its predecessor and improves on them. It is smaller on the outside but has more interior room. The chassis is lighter and uses more advanced forming technology for additional strength. The LS-series engines were increased in both displacement and power - to 6.0 liters/400hp for the LS2 and then to 6.2 liters/430hp for the LS3, introduced in 2008. 2008 also saw the introduction of a new 6-speed automatic transaxle.

The Z06 model was reintroduced for the 2006 model year with carbon-fiber construction, titanium exhaust, and a 505-hp LS7 displacing 7.0 liters while still delivering 25 mpg on the highway. The C6.R, which won its class at Le Mans, was based on the Z06 C6 Corvette. For the 2009 model year, the massive brute of the Corvette clan, the ZR1, was introduced with a modified version of the Z06 chassis and suspension and a thundering 638 horsepower from its 6.2 liter, supercharged LS9 V8. This is the fastest Corvette ever produced, and remains a benchmark for performance cars worldwide.
