The Z06 received several other refinements in addition to its unique engine, suspension, wheels, and tires that either enhance functionality, differentiate its appearance from the base-model C5, or do both:

• Screened air inlets in the center of the front fascia that deliver additional cool air to the intake system.
• Air scoop inlets on the sides of the front fascia that funnel air to the front brakes for better cooling. These inlets replaced the fog lamp housings and/or associated trim panels of the base-model C5.
• Air scoops on the rear rocker panels that funnel air to the rear brakes for better cooling. Z06 rear brake temperatures are reduced by as much as 10% under competition conditions; brake fade and wear are also greatly reduced.
• Interior details: Z06 embroidered on each seat's headrest and a tachometer with Z06 imprinted on the gauge's face and a 6500 redline.
• Flat underside body panels that provide superior aerodynamics and help in achieving a 0.29 drag coefficient. ^[9]
• Z06 badges on the front fenders (see the Z06 Emblem below).
• Different front and rear brake pads than a normal C5 with distinctive red painted calipers (compared to black or bare calipers on the base-model C5)
• C5 Z06 Making a Sub 8 minute lap at The Ring!!
