The C16 features unique Callaway-designed bodywork and shares only the glass, roof, rear decklid, and door mirrors with the base C6 Corvette. This example is finished in Crystal Red Metallic (505Q) with a Stornoway Grey (907) hood bulge and features wheel-well vents, flying buttresses, and dual exhaust outlets.
Staggered 19″ and 20″ Dymag carbon-magnesium wheels wear 285/30 front and 325/25 rear Toyo Proxes T1 Sport tires. Stopping power is provided by a Callaway Le Mans brake package with slotted rotors, and the car rides on a Callaway-Eibach Multi-Pro suspension system. Blemishes on the wheels can be seen in the gallery below.
The cabin features Garrett Black (C-605) leather and Garrett Thundercloud (C-645) Alcantara upholstery with Thundercloud carpets and red contrast stitching throughout. Amenities include a head-up display, an infotainment system with navigation, and a Bose audio system as well as heated and power-adjustable sport seats with memory.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel frames an instrument cluster that includes a 200-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer indicates 6k miles.
The 6.2-liter LS3 V8 was supercharged by Callaway and features an air-to-liquid intercooler integrated into the intake manifold as well as a Callaway “Double D” exhaust system. Power output was rated by the specialty manufacturer at 640-650 horsepower and 585 lb-ft of torque when new, and a dyno sheet is shown in the gallery.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed automatic transaxle with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Additional underside photos can be viewed in the gallery.
An October 2008 receipt from Callaway Cars of Old Lyme, Connecticut, totals $95,725 for the C16 package and shipping not including the $57,345 total vehicle price of the base car from Maroone Chevrolet of Pembroke Pines, Florida.
