In order to show just how \u201cspecial\u201d these cars are, each one will be given a special serial number, separate from the rest of the Corvette line-up.<\/p>\n<p>Other features that distinguish the C7.R Edition from other \u2018Vettes include yellow brake calipers shrouded by black wheels with yellow accent stripes (which are wrapped in Michelin PS Cup 2 tires), carbon fibre ground effects, Corvette Racing kickplates, carbon fibre hood section and even an indoor car cover with C7.R graphics.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, jet black leather with suede microfiber inserts and special coopetition seat, shifter and steering wheel complete the transformation to \u201cR-ness\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCombined with the 650-horsepower supercharged LT4 engine, true aerodynamic downforce and performance technologies such as Magnetic Ride Control, Performance Traction Management and an electronic limited slip differential,\u201d says Harlan Charles, Corvette product and marketing manager, \u201cthe Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition offers capability matched only by an elite fraternity of the world\u2019s supercars and special-edition exclusivity that is sure to make it an instant collector\u2019s item.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And if we may say so ourselves, in looks pretty spectacular. Yes, the black graphics along the side may be a little too much, but when you consider that this is a 650-horsepower super car, maybe it\u2019s not so far off.<\/p>\n<div id=\"new-royalslider-1\"
