The Z07 package is always an extra option to the z06.

There were many people on the corvette forum who thought the car would be 85k. Jesus christ they couldn't be more wrong.
That's because that probably wasn't too far off. Many don't know this, but the C8 platform is the most profitable generation corvette GM has ever made (meaning the margins are FAT - they make more on a single C8 than they did on any other individual corvette prior). The Z06 was probably going to start right under $100k. Then inflation happened, COVID caused production prices to increase and GM started shoveling money into EV R&D. And here we are.
