This this looks brutal. Probably not the prettiest car in the world, those wheels aren't my cup of tea either, but somehow there's some hidden agression in this car!

GeigerCars.de: The sporty tuning program for the new Corvette Z06
Published: January 25th, 2006

To achieve a power increase from standard 512 hp / 377 kW to 542 hp / 389 kW there will be soon available the GeigerCars.de STAGE 1 performance kit. The tune-up contains a free-flow intake air guiding with sport air filter, special exhaust manifolds, steel bed catalysts, four large chrome exhaust tips and a special mapping for the ECU. The engine tuning makes the Corvette Z06 even more agile and doesn?t only convince with quicker revving up but also with higher road performances: The sprint time from 0 ? 100 km/h is reduced to about 3.7 seconds, maximum speed is increased to about 327 km/h.

Many other special GeigerCars.de customizing components for the fastest production Corvette ever are already available. The designers of Europe?s leading customizer of American cars developed a front spoiler edge to fit on the standard apron. The bodystyling part doesn?t only make the front view more aggressive: The lift on the front axle is further reduced. Its aerodynamic counterpiece is a diffuser to fit on the rear apron.

To be able to always safely control the outstanding road performances of the tuned Z06, GeigerCars.de offers a high performance brake system. GeigerCars.de also offers suspension tuning for the new supersportscar. They designed a custom spring strut sport suspension, which replaces the standard transverse springs to achieve an even more dynamic handling.

To perfectly fill the existing space inside the wider Z06 wheel houses, the GeigerCars.de technicians developed an equally spectacular and exclusive wheel/tire combination. The multi-piece chrome wheels were designed in the dimensions 10.5Jx19 front with 285/30 ZR 19 tires and 13Jx20 rear with 345/25 ZR 20 tires. The GeigerCars.de set of wheels with tires is charged with 9,450 Euros.

Of course GeigerCars.de also offers exclusive interior appointments for the cockpit from Carbon panels up to the masterly handcrafted full leather trim in every imaginable color and design.

GeigerCars.de doesn?t only offer customizing options for the new Corvette Z06 but also fully tuned cars starting from 93,000 Euros.

At least it's not another Hummer... :bangin: Doesnt look to bad, only the wheels are not my taste
 
looks awesome! but a 40hp increase isnt amazing
 
The wheels are nice, just the colour (of the wheels) is :yucky:
 
the aggression is all but hidden. ;)
 
I prefer the stock ZO6.

Oh thanks. And as a fact, I HATE CHROME WHEELS.

I will only like them if the go with the car, in this case they don't.

those wheels would look nice on a bigger car like the viper
 
why would you stick chrome wheels on a performance car? I guess the extra weight will, along with the diffusers, hopefully keep this beast on the ground.

The thing that is hurting this car, stock, is the serious need of a factory spoiler or underbody diffusers to make it mare stable at speed. I'm sure Jan Magnussen would agree.
 
I think it looks pretty good, even with the wheels. When you're driving a shiny black 'Vette, a little extra flash won't hurt; I've seen worse examples of wheels than this. However, that tuning kit is very mild for what they're charging; here in North America, you can get performance packages for the new Z06 boosting it to 800BHP for around $105,000 US ($85,000 Euros) including the car, and that comes with a 2 year warranty!

i love the rims but the back has a little too much offset. im sure if it was tucked in a little better, it would looke much better.... btw the new japanese tuning called vip is using big chrome rims so its not just us americans
 
waaah that looks agressive!

like the rims, but not in chrome though, and i think the rear ones are to big

(but at least they're not green...)
 
THe original car is ugly and so is this. The body design has no charachter.

Except for some reason those little yellow parts of the taillights used for the turn indicators are very very sexy. Subtle, yet very very awesome.
 
Stock wheels plus a less ugly front jutting out whatever thing would make this car look much better.

Or in other words, I'd rather have a stock Z06. Its fast enough as it is.
