For Sale: 1997 Chevrolet Corvette in Mesa, Arizona

An all-back 1997 Chevrolet Corvette is always going to appeal to your performance heart. And with a value price on a well-maintained example like this, now your sensible side can agree, too.


Black is always one of those colors we love on a performance machine, and so you'll love how this retains its sleek look. There has been some enjoyment and a few touch-ups to keep the factory color looking its best, but a coupe that has averaged less than 2,500 miles annually was obviously not used as a daily driver. That's a good thing, because the C5 is one of the most curvaceous designs put to the road, and the condition of this one still shows it off correctly. And with the black tinted windows and the black targa roof, it's a full midnight package. All this darkness also makes some great pieces stand out even more, like the bright factory alloys, iconic quad taillights, and the distinct upgraded exhaust.


If you like all the black on the outside, then you'll love the all-black interior even more. And remember, since you can take the targa roof out, you can be open to the world and still have the very intimidating appearance. And while this has a very sinister look, the experience is nothing but loaded comfort. You have power windows, power locks, keyless entry, dual airbags, anti-lock brakes, cruise control, provisions for dual-zone climate control, and a premium AM/FM/CD stereo by Bose. And of course, in a Corvette, the best treats are reserved just for the driver. You've got leather bucket seat that power adjusts to your ideal driving position, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a full set of gauges that love to do a little dance right at startup.


Under the hood is the original LS1 V8. This fuel-injected motor has been treated with care, and you can tell by the exceptionally clean condition. But the real reason why you love this V8 is because of its versatility. One prod of your right foot, and it unleashes 345 horsepower to really get you moving. And the fully independent sports suspension and four-wheel disc brakes make sure you can carve up the road. But this one is also ready for the grand tour. The four-speed automatic transmission has overdrive for when you just feel like a long weekend on the highway. The trunk is even quite ample, so you can take the golf clubs along on a weekend getaway.


Complete with owner's manual, this is the solid, respected, and value-priced Corvette you've been looking for. So don't let this all-black modern classic slip away. Call today!!!
