Please call Tyler directly at 513-349-7163 with any questions about
this car.
Seven Hills Seven Hills Motorcars is very proud to offer this
beautiful 1999 Corvette in like new condition with the highly
desirable 6-Speed manual transmission and only 8,950 original
miles. The car is "turn key," the car needs nothing and every
feature and option works; I would not hesitate to hop in this car
right now and drive across the country. The Artic White (10) over
Black Leather (193) color combination is rare, highly desirable,
truly striking, and looks great on this C5 targa top coupe body
style. It is also the correct and original color scheme as verified
by the codes on the service sticker and window sticker, which are
both pictured in this ad. Besides the beautiful color, this
Corvette is absolutely loaded with sought-after options such as
Heads Up Display (HUD), 6-Speed manual transmission, Real time
damping, memory package, dual zone automatic digital climate
control, and much more. This Corvette is all original and has never
been in an accident or had any kind of paint work. It is also
completely stock and unmolested with no modifications.
There is a copy of the AutoCheck vehicle history report in this ad.
The history report shows no accidents and verifies the very low
original mileage. We have recently driven this Corvette over 400
miles since we purchased it. During that time the car was
completely reliable, had no issues, and was a true pleasure to
drive. The car comes with both original key fob remotes, two sets
of keys, the original owners manual, and window sticker. It also
has the rear privacy cover, parcel net, targa top bag, and lastly a
very nice indoor car cover.
We have this Corvette priced to sell and are offering an excellent
opportunity to own a very desirable C5 at an unbeatable value. One
could buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price
in years to come as the market on C5 Corvettes has really turned
the corner and started to rise recently. C5 Corvettes have gone
from simply being older used cars to becoming collectable classics.
This is especially true for exceptionally clean, super low mileage,
original, and unmolested examples like this Corvette.
The very low original mileage is verified not only by the condition
of the car, but also the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad,
that shows the mileage as "Actual." Please peruse all of the
photos, video, list of RPO codes, and other information to get a
true sense of how nice this Corvette really is.
As a side note, this Corvette is not a dealer auction vehicle. We
hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our Corvettes come
from owners who expect their car to go to someone that will give
the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and
encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car
inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We
photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel
confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the
Corvette, just give us a call.
Exterior
The Artic White exterior is in fantastic condition. As one can see
in the photos, the finish has dazzling gloss, smooth finish, and
deep shine. The car was recently paint corrected and ceramic
coated. The paint appears like new with no swirls/scratches. Both
doors open and shut nicely. The original alloy wheels are in like
new condition with a brilliant finish and no curb rash. Since the
photos were taken the car now has brand new tires with less than 10
miles on them and are correctly sized 245/45R17 in the front and
275/40R18 in the rear. The original tires were not replaced due to
wear, but simply due to age for safety. This Corvette has always
been stored indoors and arguably looks better in person than the
photos.
Interior
The Black Leather interior of the Corvette is in outstanding
condition. The gauge faces are crisp and clean and the lenses are
crystal clear. The factory radio works and sounds great. Most
importantly, the dash has never been cut or modified for an
aftermarket installation. The dash and console are in great shape
with no cracks, fading, or sun damage. The seats look just as great
in person as they do in the photos with no rips, holes, or split
seams. There is just minimal wear in the typical spot on the
bolster where the driver gets in and out. The carpet is also in
excellent condition with no stains, rips, or holes. This includes
the rear carpet, which is often neglected. The door panels are in
great shape. This Corvette has never been smoked in; there are no
burn marks and no aroma of cigarettes.
Corvette interiors from this era are not known to wear well and the
excellent condition of this interior is a huge testament to the
meticulous care and attention this Corvette has received throughout
its life and another great verification of the low original
mileage.
Mechanical
This Corvette is in suburb mechanical condition. As stated above,
we have recently put over 400 miles on this car with no problems at
all. The LS1 engine starts right away every time, idles smooth, and
runs great. The car drives magnificently and feels nice on the road
and at highway speeds, it drives just as well as you would expect
from a well maintained sports car with extremely low mileage. In
the video in this ad one can observe the car accelerating on the
highway up to about 70mph, shifting through all the gears, braking
to stoplight, and going through some curves. Please note that there
are no strange noises or vibrations and the car performs quite well
overall. The Targa top doesn't rattle like most C5s and still fits
tight to the car. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one
side or the other. The transmission shifts great, the shifter is
tight, does not pop out of gear, and the clutch feels good. The car
runs cool and does not overheat. This Corvette has plenty of power
and is very fast. Also, the engine compartment is beautifully
clean, detailed, and correct as one can see in the photos.
Everything on this Corvette works and it is ready to be enjoyed.
The head-up display works as do the exterior lights, interior
lights, dash lights, fog lights, horn, wipers, indicators, power
windows, power locks, power seat in all directions, and power
mirrors in all directions. Please note in the video that all of the
warning lights work properly. They light up when the key is first
turned on and then go off when the engine is started. There are no
"check engine" or other warning lights that stay on. The blower for
the heater and a/c works on all speeds. The a/c itself works and
blows cold. All of the gauges work. The digital displays on the
radio and climate control are not dim and none of the elements are
burned out, which is a common problem on C5 Corvettes. Not enough
can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car,
especially with the 6-speed manual transmission and the targa top
out on a beautiful day.
Overall Condition
Overall, this 1999 Corvette looks fantastic and is truly and
investment grade C5. The beautiful original color combination,
excellent condition, the 6-speed manual, the great options, and the
very very low original mileage make this C5 especially important
and very hard to duplicate. In my opinion and based on our
experience the fifth generation C5 Corvettes from 1997-2004 are
rising in value and are becoming classics. This is especially true
for premium and low mileage examples like this C5. The value of
these cars is going up and they are solid investments ...for more
