(from
Callaway Cars Press Release) STUNNING CALLAWAY C16 MAKES WORLD
DEBUT AT 2007
GREATER LOS ANGELES AUTO SHOW
First Look at Callaway Cars’ Newest Statement of “Powerfully Engineered
Automobiles”
Callaway Cars today unveiled its Callaway C16 – the 16th in an impressive
lineup of exclusive,
built-to-order Callaway automobiles. Based on the current Chevrolet
Corvette platform, the C16
takes performance and style to the next level, with 616 supercharged bhp
and 582 lb-ft of torque.
The new sports car incorporates Callaway’s race-proven technologies,
superlative craftsmanship
and arresting style.
“The C16 says exactly what we want to say about the capabilities at
Callaway Cars: It’s gorgeous,
it has class-leading performance—and it’s a true daily driver based on one
of the best sports car
platforms ever made,” says company founder Reeves Callaway.
The C16 was drawn and modeled by designer Paul Deutschman, who has a
twenty-year portfolio
of Callaway designs. “He is the architect of the Callaway look—from the
254 mph Sledgehammer
and our C4-based Le Mans race cars to the C7, the C12 and now the C16,”
says Callaway. The
car’s handcrafted bodywork replaces every panel of the standard body to
achieve its integrated
look. The C16 also attains a new level of manufacturing efficiency. “In
making this car we went
from CAD design straight to tooling, bypassing a full-sized model—a first
for us,” says Callaway.
“It’s tools like PTC’s Pro/ENGINEER software, our technology partner, that
make such efficient car
design possible.”
The Callaway supercharged 6.0-liter LS2 V8 produces an impressive 616 bhp
at 6,200 rpm and
develops 582 lb-ft of torque at 4,750 rpm. The Callaway C16 does 0 to 60
in 3.3-seconds, and a
quarter mile in 10.9 seconds. Top speed of the manual transmission coupe
is 206 mph. Equally
impressive is its fuel efficiency rating of 18 city/28 highway. It is
emission compliant worldwide.
Yokohama “AdvanSport” 295/30ZR19 (front) and 345/25ZR20 (rear) tires
complete the package.
“The secret to this level of road-holding starts with the tire,” says
Callaway. “As a specialist
manufacturer, we are honored to have Yokohama as our exclusive tire
partner, which gives us
access to technology that results in our extraordinary performance
numbers.”
The car’s excellent handling and ride feel are courtesy of the newly
developed Callaway/Eibach
Multi-Pro coil-over suspension. This advanced spring/damper system
features ride height, corner
weight, and pitch angle adjustability. The aluminum-bodied dampers feature
10-click-position
compression and rebound adjustability and have remote mounted reservoirs,
allowing the driver
to control a range of ride stiffness settings for track or road.
Inside, the C16 cockpit is completely retooled in German leather and
Alcantara. Also fitted are
Recaro Pole Position seats with a choice of harnessing styles. Door sill
panels, steering wheel and
passenger dash area also carry signature Callaway badging. Each automobile
is serialized and
identified by its build plaque. C16s are built to order. Clients choose
body color and interior
appointments to individual taste.
The C16’s Callaway exhaust system is manufactured from stainless steel and
features Callaway’s
signature Double-D exhaust tip design. As demonstrated by the car’s
horsepower throughput, the
exhaust system is the least restrictive and is generally known as the
best-sounding solution for
C5- and C6-generation Corvettes.
To bring the Callaway C16 from 200+ mph to rest, Callaway 6-piston front
and 4-piston rear
calipers grip 355mm diameter rotors. Super-lightweight Callaway Dymag
wheels, the lightest road
wheel in the industry, are fitted in sizes 19-inch x 10 front and 20-inch
x 12 rear. The Dymag
wheel features a remarkable hybrid of forged magnesium centers surrounded
by carbon fiber
rims - another example of Callaway bringing their race experience to their
road cars. Dymag has
been supplying advanced road wheels to Callaway since 1986.
There are three transmission options on the Callaway C16: two 6-speed
manual transmissions
(one incorporating the Z51 Performance Package’s shorter ratios in the
first four gears), or a 6-
speed automatic with paddle shift. The Callaway C16 delivers the feeling
of a fully integrated
driver’s car, maintaining the company’s legendary hallmark of
easy-to-drive, super high-
performance road cars.
Callaway C16 automobiles are built by Callaway facilities in California,
Connecticut, and Germany.
The Callaway C16 is available exclusively through Callaway Cars’
authorized dealer network in
North America, Callaway Competition in Leingarten, Germany, and
CorvetteTotal, Bonstetten,
Switzerland.
Pricing for a fully loaded C16 coupe is $126,685 USD.
All Callaway C16 components are available individually, for both new and
currently owned
Corvettes, through Callaway authorized retailers and installers.
Callaway is an internationally recognized brand known for its unique
ability to consistently
transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. From component and system
engineering through
complete vehicle design and development, Callaway specializes in
uncovering performance
potential. For additional information on Callaway Cars, its automobiles
