Vehicle Description
Dressed in a great-looking exterior color and running like a top,
this 2004 Chevrolet Corvette Commemorative Edition is an
outstanding representative of Chevy's iconic American sports car in
special issue, fifth generation form. This beauty has logged a
scant 43,484 and has an unbelievably fresh appearance, almost as if
it has been preserved in a hyperbaric chamber over the years, and
it will pull into its next home with a reproduction build sheet in
tow to document the top tier components that confer its special
edition status.
The LeMans Blue color that this 'Vette wears holds a special
meaning for the model, it was created to commemorate the Corvette's
1-2 finish at LeMans just a few years before this '04 rolled out.
It's a very appealing shade to begin with and in this setting it
absolutely sparkles. Take a look in back and you'll see one of the
aesthetic features this Chevy's limited release status brings, that
signature recessed Corvette emblem is embossed in chrome. You won't
find any concerning hairline cracks or dings of note on the
exterior, by the time this '04 rolled out, Chevy was using Sheet
Molded Composite panels that not only provided outstanding
resistance to the stresses of the road, but also afforded it with a
modest curb weight. Small wonder this Corvette was extremely
competitive with the premium sports cars of its era. Its featured
Targa tops offer the versatility of exhilarating driving with just
the blue sky above you and the transition to a more enclosed
experience is a quick process.
The featured beige interior is the perfect color accompaniment to
what's on display outside. Nearly everything inside the doors
retains a stock appearance and still presents pretty much as it did
when this Corvette first left the showroom floor. The aftermarket
upgrade that has been added, an Audiovox backup camera, really adds
convenience. The level of newness you'll find on this car can't be
overstated. The contoured bucket seats still retain their plush
padding and have no wrinkles on their bolsters and the door panels
to each side look as if they've had few, if any, elbows rested on
them. Additional interior options include air conditioning that's
in top form, power seats, windows, mirrors and door locks, cruise
control, a rear window defogger and a Chevy's Heads-Up display.
Talk about convenience! The Heads-Up display projects vital
motoring information on the lower portion of the windshield, so you
never have to take your eyes off the road.
Raise the hood and you'll find a fuel injected 5.7 liter, LS1 V8 at
the center of an engine compartment that features a number of
chrome additions to elevate its visual appeal. This aluminum engine
puts out plenty of power and offers a much lighter weight than its
predecessors, teaming with a smooth-shifting 4-speed automatic
transmission to provide spirited acceleration. Fire up the LS1, tap
on the accelerator and you'll hear a nice, deep rumble, courtesy of
the added chrome Corsa dual exhaust. 4-wheel power anti-lock brakes
bring this Corvette's special edition chrome wheels wrapped with
Falken tires to easy, fade-resistant stops.
Running at the top of its game and sure to attract attention, this
2004 Chevrolet Corvette Commemorative Edition would be a great
addition for the enthusiast who appreciates its combination of
stellar curb appeal, strong performance and special edition
significance. Call today!
