It's been enjoyable to watch the Chevrolet Corvette get better and better with each succeeding generation, evolving from an overpowered, unreliable, rattle-prone caricature into a world-class sports car.
One thing that hasn't changed, though, is the Corvette philosophy of offering a lot of power for the money.
And nowhere is that more evident than in the ultimate factory Corvette - the 2006 Z06.
Not for the faint of heart, the Z06 packs 505 hp. under its hood, from a 7.0-liter V-8 engine. It's a thrill and a handful to drive - a potentially vicious beast that will bite the careless who fail to respect its power. It provides an awesome driving experience.
