Michigan-based Specter Werkes has announced plans for its new C6-based Corvette GTR, the successor to the limited-edition C5 GTR program launched almost a decade ago. Designed as a styling and performance upgrade for the sporty Chevy, the new GTR package is available on the full lineup including the base coupe and convertible, Z06 and even the new ZR1.
The package includes exposed carbon fiber details on the exterior, a new front fascia, carbon fiber splitter, extractor hood, front fenders, doors, rocker panels, rear fenders, rear fascia, a carbon fiber rear diffuser and custom paint schemes.
Other extras include carbon highlights in the headlamps, new taillights, 335mm Michelin Pilot Sport 2 Zero tires in the rear and 285mm rubber up front, forged HRE wheels measuring 20in, a carbon engine dress up kit, GTR embroidered seats and a full stainless steel exhaust system.
The Corvette GTR package carries a base price of $34,995, with a variety of high-performance powertrain options available for additional cost. Production is expected to begin this spring, with each vehicle hand-built, numbered and fully documented for the customer.
