2015 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Final 638 - the last of all C6s

According to Chevrolet.com, production for the C6 has not ended despite the 2013 model year. For the 2014 and 2015 model years, the C6 will no longer be offered in any version except ZR1. The first 2014 ZR1 is the one shown in the picture that was bought today on Saturday, May 17, 2014, for over $185,000. It delivers an SAE-certified 638 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 604 lb.-ft. of torque at 3800 rpm. Only 50 cars will be sold as 2014 C6 ZR1s. Until that, Final 638 will not be available. The curb weight of the 2015 Final 638 will be down from 3,344 by 375 to 2,969 lbs, so expect 0-60 mph in 2.65 seconds and a 1/4 mile time of 9.7 seconds at 140.2 mph.

Production for the Final 638 starts on Monday, May 26, 2014. Sticker price of the Final 638 is unconfirmed, but expect one to be sold for $129,000-$130,000 beginning on the 26th.

The Final 638 will also feature the "FINAL 638" badging on the backs and sides of all 2015 ZR1s.

Those are some staggering numbers for the 2015 Final 638! I'm not sure how they are going to get 375 lbs out of the current ZR1, but I certainly hope they are successful. Under 3,000 lbs with that kind of horse power will put it in a class of its own. Now if they could only make it mid-engine!

And anyone would want the old Corvette when the new Stingray is so much better why exactly?

2.65 seconds 0-60? Really? Is that with Gorilla glue sprayed on the tires?

I like to shake the hand of the fool who forked out $185K plus tax for this car. P.T. Barnum sure was right!

I'm not sure why you doubt the 2.65s 0-60? At that weight and power, it should be possible. Magazine tests were clocking the last generation Porsche Turbo at 2.7s.

As for the price, take your pick:
1. A fool and is his money are soon parted
2. You have to pay the price for that kind of exclusivity

Rick Hendrick will pay big time for last ZR1 to add to his extensive heritage collection of Vettes. He just paid over a million for first 2015 C7 Z06.
