Vehicle Description
Introduced in 1997, the "C5" generation Corvette was a radical
styling departure from the angular C4s. In addition to looking more
contemporary, the C5 featured General Motors latest technology
including drive-by-wire throttle, variable-effort steering and
optional magnetic selective ride control suspension. With an all
aluminium LS1 5.7l V8 and lightweight composite bodywork the C5
offered performance on par with contemporary Ferraris and Aston
Martins. A 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds and a 13.3 second quarter mile
mean this Corvette still packs a punch.
The car comes with all standard equipment along with the 50th
Anniversary package; Memory Seat package, auto dimming mirrors,
Magnetic selective ride control, power telescope steering wheel
with tilt, twilight sentinel, heads up display, and 50th
Anniversary badging. Further features are the body side moldings,
2.73 rear axle, shale colored soft top and, warm nickel metallic
alloy wheels.
With just 8,178 miles, this anniversary edition is one of the
nicest ones we've seen. The paint is shiny and flawless, and the
interior dashboard has not a crack or blemish. The seats have a
little bit of wear but no cracks or stains. With just two previous
owners and exceptionally low miles, this is a very nice car. The
stunning Anniversary Red exterior and the Anniversary Shale leather
interior are an eye catcher and the exclusivity of the 50th
anniversary make this a collector grade C5 Corvette.
