Indianapolis, IN (October 28, 2008) – Hertz has done it again! Exclusively manufactured for The Hertz Corporation, the 2008 Chevrolet C6 Corvette ZHZ brings the mighty Corvette to even higher standards.  Sporting a six-speed paddle shift transmission, the Corvette ZHZ makes the most of the dual mode exhaust, delivering 436 horsepower.  And these impressive features are wrapped inside a uniquely packaged Corvette that features Hertz iconic yellow and black - colors that have a storied past in sports car history.  Production of the Corvette ZHZ Coupe is limited to 500 models making it an instant classic.  The Corvette ZHZ is the latest addition to the Hertz “Fun Collection” of rental cars.

About

We've been nuts about diecast cars for years and the only thing better than old models is new models! We're mainly into 1:18 scale but quickly finding interest in large 1:12 and 1:16 scale, as well as superbly detailed 1:43 diecast as well as 1:10 scale motorcycles! We don't have as much time as we'd like to update the blog, but over the years we've accumulated alot of good content here and hope you'll enjoy your stay and learn more about the diecast model car collecting hobby!
