12. Chevrolet Corvette Z06

The Chevrolet Corvette has always been a pretty sweet car, but Chevrolet turned it up to 11 when they built the Corvette Z06. A supercharged 6.2 liter V-8 producing 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque resides under the hood of this monster of a car. Six gears wasn’t enough for this baby, so Chevrolet installed a seven-speed manual transmission as a standard. An eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters is also available. The Corvette Z06 has a zero to sixty time of 3 seconds flat, and has a top speed of 185 mph. The chassis and suspension are perfectly tuned, keeping the Z06 planted on the pavement as it flies around corners or tears down straightaways.
