Chevrolet, founded by a racing pioneer 100 years ago, celebrates its performance heritage with the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Centennial Edition, which features a sleek black color scheme, unique design elements and Corvette's trademark sports car technology. Chevrolet will auction a Corvette Z06 Centennial Edition at the Barrett-Jackson collector car auction, in West Palm Beach, Florida, U.S.A. on April 9, 2011, with the proceeds to benefit the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer. The exterior color scheme is reinforced inside the car, with the Ebony leather-wrapped instrument panel and doors complimented by red stitching also on the steering wheel, seats, console and shifter. The seats feature microfiber suede accents on seats, steering wheel, shifter and armrests.
