Vehicle Description
2017 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport - One Owner - 15k Miles - White
and Black Paint Scheme - Z06 Styling - 6.2L V8 (Please note: If you
happen to be viewing this 2017 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport on a
website other than our Garage Kept Motors site, it's possible that
you've only seen some of our many photographs of the car due to
third-party website limitations. To be sure you access all the more
than 150 photographs, as well as a short start-up and walk-around
video, and a link to the Corvette's one-owner,
accident-and-damage-free, low-mileage Carfax history report, please
go to our main website: Garage Kept Motors.) Once a race car, then
a special edition, the Grand Sport has become the Corvette's
top-selling trim. After a drive in the C7 version, we understand
why. �€" Car and Driver First Drive, June 2016 In two articles-a
First Drive article in 2016 and a Long-Term Test report in 2016-Car
and Driver magazine carefully analyzed the 2017 Corvette Grand
Sport. Here are outtakes on several key points: Overall impression:
... The Grand Sport feels like what it is: a Stingray with an
enormous amount of grip. And it looks like what it is: a Z06
without the completely absurd power. Real-world power: It is only
in a world where less than $100,000 can buy you a
factory-warrantied 600- or 700-hp car (The Grand Sport's) 460
sounds unimpressive. Have you ever tried to fully exploit 650
horsepower on the street for anything more than a fleeting moment?
If so, are you currently reading this story from the comfort of the
prison rec room? Handling: On Milford's ride-and-handling loop, a
section of gentle curves and alternately ragged or lumpy pavement,
the Grand Sport could only be made unpleasant by calling up the
stiffest track setting and only then after encountering a series of
chatter bumps. You won't do that. Left in touring or sport, the
ride is admirably free of harshness and the car shrugs off nasty
mid-corner heaves and hillocks. Reliability? It suffered not a
single unscheduled stop, failure to crank, or Uber request required
to bail us out. We didn't even have to add a single quart of oil.
It was a sterling test of reliability. (Car and Driver, June 2018

Offered here is a 2017 Corvette Grand Sport in white over black (a
Star Wars Stormtrooper vibe). Adult-driven by only one owner, the
car retains near-showroom condition inside and out. The odometer
currently reads 15,674 miles, or fewer than 4,000 miles per-year
since new. The Corvette's exterior white paint retains a
near-showroom-new appearance. White dates back to the first
Corvette, and in concert with the black ZO6 trim, makes for a
striking look. (To best assess the quality of the paint and trim
finishes, be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in
the accompanying gallery.) It's no wonder this seventh-generation
redesign was so well-received and remains venerated by Corvette
enthusiasts. Design touches like the lower-front blackout grille,
wider stance, re-executed headlight design with LED elements,
re-styled front and rear side brake-cooling openings, re-designed
rear fascia, quad, center-exiting exhaust, and black spoilers front
and rear all updated the C7 cars while remaining true to the
Corvette DNA. This evolutionary improvement on a classic theme
helped guarantee the C7's place in Corvette history. The car's
entire body-including lower-front and rear panels-is free of any
noteworthy damage or defect. The white removable roof panel is
similarly undamaged. Lighting lenses and cabin glass show no
cracks, fading, or other flaws. All factory badging-including the
front Corvette-flags em
