Vehicle Description
2013 Black Corvette 427 ConvertibleThe only year the 427
Convertible was produced!Black w/Red interior 427/505hp 6-speed
manual transaxle.When the sixth generation Corvette was introduced
as a '05 model it was a huge hit with the public and press alike.
Chevrolet got just about everything right with the car. And when
the new ZO6 was introduced the following year it didn't take long
to see that a major home run had been achieved. The ZO6 featured a
505hp small block 427 under its carbon fiber hood along with a
6-speed manual transaxle aluminum Hydro-Formed frame special brakes
and suspension and tires. And it was a monster! Complaints about
the car were few and far between. However one was the fact that it
didn't come in a Convertible! Because of the very high-performance
nature of the ZO6 it wasn't available in Convertible or with a
removable Targa roof panel like the base Coupe was. But good things
come to those who wait . . .To commemorate both the end of C6
production and the 60th Anniversary of Corvette Chevrolet decided
to bring out a very special edition. Two special editions actually.
The 427 Convertible Collector Edition gave buyers the best of both
worlds. It combined elements of both the ZO6 and Convertible
including the mighty LS7 427/505hp engine with dry-sump oiling
system but retained the Convertibles steel frame. It also had
carbon fiber hood and front fenders like the ZO6. All 427 C.E.'s
came with 427 badging on the hood ZR-1 style rear spoiler and
Michelin PS2 performance tires. The other special edition was the
60th Anniversary Edition what came in Arctic White exterior with
Silver Pearl graphics and Blue Diamond leather-wrapped
interior.This very sharp 2 owner example came to us from a local
So. Cal. client. It's in excellent shape and brand new Michelin
run-flats were just installed in the rear. Visit Corvette Mike
