For Sale: 2003 Chevrolet Corvette in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe

"If you read our special Corvette issue, you know that, here at Motor Trend, we love Corvettes and consider the '03 Z06 the best Corvette to date. Why? Because it's an exotic car, fast and allows you to run with all the big boys from Europe at a fraction of their exotic car prices. And, while we wish Chevy would build the Z06 using the sexier glass hatch coupe body, we still love it for its unmistakable, all American "I'm a badass" attitude." Motor Trend, July 2003

For consignment, a 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 coupe with a title verified 37,579 actual miles. C5 Z06's remain some of the hottest cars in the collector world and often don't spend enough time at the mall to attract dust, so if you're thinking about it, don't linger too long!

Exterior
The sleek C5 body style is only made sleeker by the black paint and like the point of a Sharpie pen, this wedge shaped speed demon cuts through the wind with a narrow nose and steeply raked windshield. Functional body features are slightly muted including the heat extracting duct on the front fender and the brake cooling duct on the dogleg, and a black Z06 is stealthier than the other colors. But the quad tail lights out back pop off the end piece while the fantastic quad exhaust makes their usual ground hugging appearance. Staggered size tires are used on staggered sized Z06 wheels, here in argent gray with red calipers peeking through. Imperfections on this well preserved Vette include some spots on the hood, paint damage on the front, rear fender, and decklid, along with various chips, scratches, a nasty deep scuff on the rocker panel, and some curb rash.

Interior
Solid black on the inside too where the door panels and their rubber topped switches appear clean and intact. Tall black leather seats wear a red embroidered Z06 emblem and are in nice shape as well with the driver's seat showing usage wrinkles in the leather but no tears. Monochromatic and analog, the instrument cluster and surrounding appointments provide an ergonomic cockpit with no distractions and only the essential information. There is an AM/FM/CD player over the integrated A/C panel and both have digital readouts in familiar green illumination. The shifter and center console are very clean and the low pile charcoal carpet that covers the floor and lines the trunk are nearly impeccable.

Drivetrain
Bright red covers flank the undulating plastic plenum and dress up this clean engine bay where a 5.7 liter LS6 V8 resides, pumping out an astounding 405 horsepower and rowing gears through a Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission, the only transmission offered in Z06's. It sends power to the rear axle with 3.42 gears and limited slip.

Undercarriage
Clean underneath with only road spray and metal color changes showing use. Dual exhaust runs through original equipment on its way to the legendary center exit, and power disc brakes are on all four corners. Suspension consists of the race inspired SLA double wishbone configuration with transverse mounted composite springs and monotube shock absorbers.

Drive-Ability
The heads up display is not working according to our consignor. We confirm, but honestly, when you're behind the wheel of this car, thoughts immediately turn to what works and that includes astounding power, comfortable seats, and of course, insane handling. This is, after all, a track car for the street. All other functions on this always impressive model work as they should and we return to the mall to find a temporary spot under the lights for this desirable car. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

Do you want to be fast or furious? Buy this car and you'll have fun going fast. Hesitate, and you'll be furious when it disappears from our website, keep in mind that we have a sold section on the website. We're keeping it short here so you can make the call!
