Aluminum Frame

---

Z06 achieves a power-to-weight ratio, (6.3), superior to many exotic cars like Ferrari F430 and Porsche GT3 RS,(1) in part because of its lightweight yet strong aluminum frame combined with a magnesium roof structure and engine cradle. The aluminum body structure weighs only 278 pounds, 136 pounds less than the Corvette coupe. The structure includes full-length aluminum hydroformed rails to provide exceptional strength and dimensional accuracy.
