First, let's get one thing out of the way....Want. Bad.
Okay, back to business. What we've got here that's got me flipping endlessly through the pictures is the 2012 Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette. The special edition Corvette celebrates GM's "rich motorsports heritage" during 100 years in business.
The Centennial edition (order code ZLC) features lightweight cast-spun aluminum Centennial Satin Black wheels (want), red brake calipers, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, is available only in Carbon Flash Metallic with Satin-black graphics of Louis Chevrolet and a unique interior featuring suede seats we've never seen in a Corvette before. They look like may actually have support and be able to handle the performance of the 'Vette.
And that's good because the Centennial Edition package is available on all Corvettes including the Z06 (will take that one), Grand Sport and ZR1.

Wow, hot looking Vette! Love the wheels, and the seats really do look like an improvement over the current car, almost (almost) Recaro-esque with those square VW-GTI-like headrests.

So that is what lust looks like in automobile form. Beautiful.

I can't say that I'm wild about the 100th anniversary logo, but I love the rest of the car. Those seats and those wheels are gorgeous, and the interior actually looks good.

Love the wheels except for the center graphic. Like the red accents inside and out.

Sweet! I gotta spend more on Powerball. This black looks awesome. If I buy a 2012, would have to get the black instead of the blue!

Very well done Chevy. Finally a special edition we can all be at least mostly on board with. I hope they keep up this good work with the C7.

i feel like this is what all corvettes should be. Not so much color-wise but materials and options

Wow is the word! I have an '06 Z06 in black that I have used as a daily driver for nearly six years. Maybe it's time to trade her in and get a horse with some fresh legs.
Question...if I get this Centennial Edition as another Z06 would it be even cooler to take it to Callaway and let them do their SC652 package on it? I mean like what could be better than owning a supercharged 427?
