When it debuted in 1997, the fifth generation of Chevy's Corvette
was considered by many as the beginning of the modern era of the
General's halo car. Lasting almost a decade, this 1999 Chevrolet
Corvette represents the final time a 'Vette would have a 1 at the
beginning of its model year. With just 90,103 believed actual miles
on its odometer, the also believed original Torch Red paint looks
very good for being more than a quarter century old. With its
swoopy lines and removable targa top, this Corvette is perfect for
anyone who wasn't able to buy one of these gems the first time
around.
Inside, we find a beautifully redone black leather interior. A
locking center console separates a pair of supportive power bucket
seats sporting custom embroidery on the headrests. A
power-assisted, four-spoke, padded steering wheel featuring the
Crossed Flags emblem sits just ahead of the six-pod analog gauge
cluster featuring a 7,000 RPM tachometer and 200 mph speedometer.
The factory AC Delco AM/FM/CD head unit provides more than enough
entertainment. Meanwhile, power mirrors, locks, and windows, along
with dual-zone climate control, cruise control, air conditioning,
and a trick Heads-Up Display, offer all the modern amenities
required for a comfortable drive.
Under the signature front-hinged hood, we find a numbers-matching
overhead valve 5.7-liter LS1 V-8 engine. With its beautiful
Corvette valve covers, aluminum blocks and heads, and composite
intake manifold, this modern small block was capable of pumping out
an impressive 345 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 350 pound-feet of
torque at 4,400 rpm. That power is routed through a rear-mounted
4L60E four-speed automatic transmission before being transferred to
the tarmac via a set of staggered Z06a-style wheels, measuring 17
inches in the front and 18 inches in the rear.
