FLORIDA OWNER 1998 CHEVROLET CONVERTIBLE IN VERY NICE CONDITION
INSIDE AND OUT WITH A GORGOUES TAN CONVERTIBLE TOP AND LEATHER
INTERIOR . Always serviced by Dealer since new! The Chevrolet
Corvette (C5) is the fifth generation of the Corvette sports car,
produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors for the 1997
through 2004 model years
Production variants include the high-performance Z06. Racing
variants include the C5-R, a 24 Hours of Daytona and 24 Hours of Le
Mans GTS/GT1 winner. The C5 Corvette was the first GM vehicle to
feature the third generation small block ""LS"" engines, and the
last generation Corvette with Pop-up headlights
The C5 was unveiled on January 6, 1997 at the North American
International Auto Show in Detroit.[6] The fifth generation was
originally intended to debut in 1993 to celebrate the Corvette's
40th anniversary, but it was delayed by financial troubles and
changes in staff within GM.[7] A major change from its predecessor
the C4, the C5 had a hydroformed box frame, a design that offered
an improved structural platform, especially for a convertible body
style
To improve handling, the transmission was relocated to form an
integrated, rear-mounted transaxle assembly. Connected to the
all-new LS1 engine via a torque tube, the engine/transmission
arrangement enabled a 50-50% front-rear weight distribution. The
LS1 engine initially produced 345 hp (257 kW), subsequently
increased in 2001 to 350 hp (261 kW)
The 4L60-E automatic transmission carried over from previous
models, but the manual was replaced by a Borg-Warner T-56 6-speed
capable of a 265 km/h (165 mph) top speed.[8] Relative to the C4,
the new platform and structural design substantially reduced
squeaks and rattles. In the inaugural model year (1997), only the
fastback coupe (more like a hatchback coupe) was offered, with the
convertible - the first to offer a trunk since 1962 - following
later in August 1997 for MY 1998
[10] In the summer of 1998, a third body style, the hardtop (also
referred to as the ""fixed-roof coupe"" or ""FRC""), was added to
the 1999 MY lineup.[11] This body style, as its name suggests,
featured a fixed top (no removable Targa Top panel as with the
fastback coupe) with a roofline shape and trunk space similar to
that of the convertible, as well as a distinctive notchback-style
rear window. Aside from cosmetic differences (new wheel styles,
paint colors, pace car/commemorative editions in 1998, 2003, and
2004, etc
), engine power increase, and new offerings for optional equipment,
there were few fundamental changes from one model year to the next
within the production run of the C5. One of the more popular
""high-tech"" options introduced in the Corvette line was a head-up
display or HUD, while another innovation was the Active Handling
System (first available as an option for 1998, then standard on al
