Common failure points on all C5 Corvettes include the hazard switch, fuel tank level sensors (requires cleaning due to dirty gas sulfur deposits), and steering column lock message (an aftermarket fix exists).
Chevrolet Corvette (C8) Z06, based on the C8 platform 2020; Originally, the Z06 designation was an order code for an options package in the 1963 model year. Zora Arkus-Duntov, known as the “father of the Corvette” came up with the idea to circumvent a 1957 corporate agreement between American manufacturers forbidding automobile racing.
The LS6 was originally only used in the high-performance C5 Corvette Z06 model, with the Cadillac CTS V-Series getting the 400 bhp (298 kW) engine later. The V-Series used the LS6 for two years before being replaced by the LS2 in 2006. For 2006, the Z06 replaced the LS6 with the new LS7.
