ZHZ is just Hertz' cheesy way of branding the car. Instead of Z06, it's ZH(ert)Z. But, it's basically a stock C6. I think they tweaked it a bit to get like 5 extra HP, but nothing noticeable.

I rented one last summer before I had my Vette. It was fun, and helped me to decide that the Corvette was the vehicle for me. Just don't buy one used from Hertz. If everybody drove it the way I drove it...god help you.

Those are Hertz rentals. All of them, coupe or vert have those special wheels.

FWIW, Hertz is owned by The Carlyle Group (private equity).

I rented one last year in Maui. It has paddle shifters, 'dual' mode exhaust and about 5 more HP. Fun drive, but I like my C5 better.

No NAV.
