The Centennial Edition Corvettes are exclusively done in the new Carbon Flash Metallic exterior with satin-black graphics and unique Centennial Satin Black Wheels with red brake calipers. Red accents are throughout the inside and outside of the car. All the Centennial Corvettes will be available with Magnetic Selective Ride Control.
A special “100-Years” graphic showing Louis Chevrolet behind a steering wheel are located on the B-Pillars, the center caps of the wheels and the center of the steering wheel. The graphics are designed to blend with the car The Seats are also embossed with the centennial logo as well. A Small “100″ replaces the fleur-de-lis symbol on the Corvette’s crossed flags logo.
Inside you’ll find an ebony leather wrapped dash and doors with complimentary red stitching. Suede accents used first on the 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon are also found on the Centennial’s seats, steering wheel, shifter and armrests.
The RPO for the Centennial package is ZLC. Pricing will be released early this summer prior to production.

I'm usually not a huge fan of packages like that but I think it looks amazing. The interior looks 100x better. I wonder how well it will hold up. I also wonder what the price for the package is going to be. I'm sure it won't be cheap.

Very nice.
BUT, if you're going to take a pic of one with the caliper coating that's bubbling up around the bleeder valve then at least photochop the pic before you release it.
Jeez ... must have some cheap help in the marketing dept.

I think it may be the same price as the carbon edition, but I agree that the interior looks a lot better.

Nice looking Vette. But, come on celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Chevrolet. 
The center caps on the wheels are beyond Corny. 
GM will love the "gotta haves" lining up early for this one.

The way the press release reads, I'm assuming that only the Z06 that will be auctioned at BJ will get the raised carbon fiber hood. Poor write up by GM, as the press release mingles the special edition cars with the car to be auctioned at BJ.
Rereading the release, it appears that the carbon fiber high rise hood (that is on the limited edition "Carbon Edition" for 2011) will be an option across the board on all Z06's????? Difficult to determine for me.
