Chevrolet launched today the 427 Limited Edition Z06, a model that reminds of the big-block Stingray models of the mid-1960s. The 427 designation refers to the cubic-inch displacement for the highest-performance engines offered between 1966 and ’69 – and is also the cubic-inch equivalent of the Z06’s 7.0L LS7 small-block V-8.
The 427 Limited Edition Z06 features a Crystal Red Tintcoat exterior, the first Z06 ever offered with a red metallic tintcoat paint. It also features graphics on the hood and fascia that evoke the style of the famed “stinger” hood design and graphics that were offered with 1967 models equipped with the 427 engine.
Also unique to this model are “427” hood badges. Each example is numbered and signed by Wil Cooksey, the Corvette assembly plant manager who is retiring after 15 years on the job, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Hi, Alex.
What is the relation with Chery? Price? Problem? or User Group? :confused:

Chevy is short for Chevrolet ;)

other than the fact that Chevy has signed a deal with Chery to combine forces to make affordable cars. the tie up is that Chery will produce cars for US markets under the Dodge badge. so it is a Chery model made for US with a different name.

I thought it was a link-up with Chrysler ?
Anyway, the link provided by AlexJulian shows a Corvette. I don't think Chery will be making a Corvette anytime soon :)
However, Chery has a Concept Coupe :) Looks gooood...:icon3:

Wow, nice concept car they have it there!
design wise, do look kinda lyk mitsu's eclipse, but well, too many look alike cars nowadays...
anyway, chery is now a world wide brand, most countries had their workshops quite well setup, and customers were kinda happy with their services..
judging from tt, mayb their mechanics here arent as skillful and dedicated...
:confused:

Dear Zal,
I would help you if I can but I have no info on Chevrolet Spark.
This Section of the Singapore Cars Forum is dedicated to CHERY but we are more than happy to help owners or buyers of other makes be it ALFA ROMEO, BMW or CHEVY.
Guys, any info on Chevrolet Spark ?
