Start with the roof and your rental dates
Choose BEY's black C8 Z51 2LT coupe for the lowest daily rate of these three. Choose the white Stingray 3LT if you want a convertible with a one-day minimum. Choose the blue Z06 3LZ if the Z06 itself is the reason for the rental and you have at least two days. For the same two days, their rental subtotals are $850, $898 and $1,098, before separate deposits and other quote items.
These are different model years and individual cars: the black coupe is a 2026, the white convertible a 2023 and the blue Z06 a 2024. Compare the pictured car and its complete name rather than requesting a general C8 and assuming the details will match.
What 2LT, 3LT, Z51 and Z06 actually mean
C8 identifies the Corvette generation; all three cars here belong to it. On the Stingray, 2LT and 3LT identify equipment levels. Z51 is a performance package, including changes to brakes, cooling and suspension. A 3LT badge alone does not mean more engine power than a 2LT, and Z51 does not turn a Stingray into a Z06.
The underlying engine difference is substantial. Chevrolet specifies a 6.2-liter V8 for these Stingray model years and a 5.5-liter V8 rated at 670 hp for the 2024 Z06. The 3LZ designation identifies the Z06's equipment trim. Optional packages and published acceleration tests do not establish which options are fitted to BEY's blue car.
Model year matters inside, too. Chevrolet redesigned the displays and console for 2026. Because BEY's 2LT and 3LT come from different years, compare their actual cabin layouts rather than treating the higher trim number as a complete interior comparison. Ask about any feature that matters to you, including seat type, front lift and phone connectivity.
Compare the same two days
The table uses the public rates checked September 13, 2026. Each subtotal is the daily rate multiplied by two rental days. Pickup and return times still need to match the quoted rental period. Taxes, delivery, excess mileage and other applicable items are outside this calculation.
For two days, the white 3LT costs $48 more than the black 2LT. Moving from the white convertible to the blue Z06 adds $200 in rental expense and increases the separate published deposit by $500. If you only need one day, the 2LT and 3LT meet that minimum; the Z06 starts with a two-day rental subtotal of $1,098.
For a seven-day stay, BEY's current 15% duration discount produces base estimates of $2,529 for the 2LT, $2,672 for the 3LT and $3,267 for the Z06, using the site's whole-dollar discount rounding. Deposits remain separate. Ask for the complete quote before comparing the money required for the trip.
| Exact Corvette | Daily rate | Minimum | Two-day subtotal | Separate deposit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Black C8 Z51 2LT coupe | $425 | 1 day | $850 | $500 |
| White Stingray 3LT convertible | $449 | 1 day | $898 | $500 |
| Blue Z06 3LZ convertible | $549 | 2 days | $1,098 | $1,000 |
Plan the roof, bags and parking together
All three BEY listings publish two seats, including the driver. They suit a two-person plan only after the bags fit. Send bag dimensions, not just a suitcase count, and explain whether luggage travels with you throughout the rental. Confirm the full load fits the exact car before reservation.
The white 3LT and blue Z06 are retractable-hardtop convertibles. The black 2LT is listed as a coupe; confirm the roof-panel arrangement and permitted use rather than expecting the same roof operation. Have the controls demonstrated at handoff, and check how the roof and stored belongings interact before setting off.
For a hotel stay, check ramp access and the parking plan for the exact car. Do not assume a front-lift system is fitted. If roof-down driving is your main priority and you are still choosing across brands, the convertible guide can help narrow the wider choice.

Name the Corvette when you request a quote
Each car includes 100 miles per rental day and lists additional mileage at $5 per mile. Two days therefore include 200 miles; seven include 700. Estimate the entire route, including pickup, hotel travel and return.
Send the exact Corvette, pickup and return dates and times, handoff area, occupants and bags when you request availability. BEY confirms the car, driver eligibility and complete quote before reservation. Drivers must be at least 18, with a valid licence and full-coverage auto insurance; coverage requires review. The inquiry itself does not reserve the car or take payment.
Corvette comparison questions
Is the Z06 a C8 Corvette?
Yes. BEY's 2024 Z06 belongs to the C8 generation. It is a different model from the Stingray; 3LZ is its equipment trim.
Which of these Corvettes has the lowest rental minimum?
The black Z51 2LT and white Stingray 3LT each have a one-day minimum, at $425 and $449 per day. The blue Z06 has a two-day minimum, giving a $1,098 rental subtotal before its separate deposit and other quote items.
Does paying for a 3LT guarantee every optional feature?
No. Compare the exact car and model year. Confirm any required option directly; an equipment-trim name does not establish every feature fitted to that unit.
