I agree, IMO the coolest and best looking Corvette ever. Pratt & Miller have really pushed the Z06 into exotic supercar territory now with this C6RS conversion.

I have been waiting for a video like this since the first time I saw it on SEMA show pics, so thanks a lot Pagani! Now I'm really looking forward to seeing the next vid with the sequential box installed... :twisted:

GM has the zr1 they won't build a car that could compete whit it.
I love to see review of rs vs the zr1 that would be heaven on earth and beyond

Thanks, indeed a great tuned Vette ;-)

Pure sexyness!

[bmagni]

For me this is more attractive than the new ZR-1...

[pagani]

And i think it's better and lighter than the zr1

[RC45]

And i think it's better and lighter than the zr1

If lighter, it is by 1 or 2 kilos at the best. The C6RS is a heavy car - think of it as a NA ZR1.

The car has big wheels, tyres, electronic suspension, fully luxurious sound proof interior etc etc.

It's allot lighter
Curb weight is 3166 lb or 1436 kg that is pretty light.

Yeah, but don't forget the C6RS has a full carbon fibre body...

[gucom]

I'd take this any day over the ZR1 or other 'vettes, maybe even over some porsches :P depending on my financial situation

[HeilSvenska]

indeed a great tuned Vette ;-)

I wouldn't even call it tuned. It's pretty much a new car, with a new engine block and all. :-P It's one of the hottest car I've seen this year. And it's so much more imposing in person.

Its based on an existing car - its a tuner car :)

Anyone can have one - just take your C6 to P&M and they will tune/turn your C6 into a C6RS.

[STiInYourEye]

Those center-lock wheels are incredible- and black is the only color the car should come in- purely wicked!

They're making no more than 20 or 25 according to the Pratt & Miller rep at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

In other words, any one can take their C6 to P&M and get the tune/conversion done to their car, all you have to do is pay them the money.

I mean, just like "there will be only 399 Enzo's built" right ? ;) If 26 people go to P&M with the money, they will not turn the last one away.

FML believes there are about 450 Enzo's.... not including FXX, MC12, MC12 Corsa, MC12 Race cars.

[jon_s]

Even to my *ahem* refined EU eyes - this is one sexy beast.

starting with post #23, discussion of build quantity began, so the enzo was brought up to be 399... then 399+1.... i simply mention that it appears that according to the FML, there are about 450 Enzo's out there.

Enzo these still brings up a 1 millon dollar second hand
But wonder when we the see a proper road test of the c6rs.

[RC45]

The bit I find rather amusing - is that now, all of a sudden a tuned 600bhp+ Corvette is a "legitimate" supersports car that must in fact be fast - when for the last 6 years this fact has been denied, argued and called out as completely false - even though they have been a dime a dozen ;)

[Svensson]

^ All of a sudden? I think a lot of people here have agreed for quite some time on what a great supercar the Z06 is. And now this Pratt & Miller tuned car gives the Corvette that bit of extra flair that it needed to be considered a true exotic supercar :-)

RC is referring to more than just the current gen Z06.

The P&M car does not even have to start life as a C6 Z06, so my point is actually bolstered by your thinking only the 2006 and new C6 Z06 is a "super car" - when infact it (the anemic 505bhp C6 Z06 ;)) is slower and less well handling out of the box than many modded Corvettes from the previous 7 years :)

[dutchmasterflex]

GM's image never really made it past the American enthusiasts.. Not to mention their cars have gotten a lot better within the last few years, its no wonder they are finally getting credit. Bob Lutz is doing one hell of a job, saving GM's ass.

I think the car sare the same - public perseption has changed.. because the reality that the Japanese makes are not all that they have been percieved to be over the years - the are just as expensive, unreliable and badly made afterall ;)

And in the ende, perception is rea;ity :)

[dutchmasterflex]

Japanese cars would not be so popular if they were not cheap and reliable in the past. Now, all car manufacturers are pretty much on the same level car building wise. Engineering a "regular" car has been done and perfected over the years, all the technology is there. All they have to do is market.

Out of interest what is the weight of your vette now?
:-)

Last I checked was 3120lbs. That was before the carbon fibre hood. So it might be back down to 3100lbs.

That is pretty light lighter than both c6rs and the zr1.
