For Sale: 2008 Chevrolet Corvette in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

2008 Chevrolet Corvette 3LT Coupe

"Ruthless performance notwithstanding, I usually tire of the Corvette quickly, instead yearning for a more polished implement like a Porsche Cayman. Sure, I enjoyed the urgent, chest resonating roar from the new exhaust, but the gains in refinement, a remarkably upscale stitched leather dash; a friendlier, lighter effort shifter; and dramatically improved steering feel are far more significant." Car and Driver, Sept. 2007

For consignment, a 2008 Chevrolet Corvette 3LT coupe with a title verified 24,214 actual miles. Car and Driver also wrote, "This '08 is an evolutionary step forward from the '07. Pretty hard to feel the increased horsepower and torque; both cars move on the back roads. The '08's steering, however, feels measurably better: No twitchiness, and it's light but highly communicative". This example has the Z51 performance package in addition to the 3LT trim level.

Exterior
This integrated bumper, sealed headlights, no audacious chrome just pure performance oriented sculpted exterior is bathed in a beautiful Victory Red with a tinted, translucent targa top that gives the car a fighter jet canopy profile, bisected by the red C-pillar that gives way to the sloping and tinted rear window. 18-inch five spoked wheels in front and 19's in the rear, all carry low profile, ZR rated tires with gaping gaps to view the big disc brakes. Out back, it's the iconic quad tail lights positioned over the center exit quad exhaust tips within a black valance that holds the reverse lights. Imperfections are minimal with some inclusions on the hood, a scuff on a fender, and a small gash in the rim along with some curb rash.

Interior
Ebony dominated the interior palette beginning with the smooth door panels, both as clean as could be. The seats are also in excellent shape, black leather with robust side bolstering and tall headrests, each with memory settings and heat, part of the 3LT package. A meaty leather wrapped steering wheel fronts an attractive instrument cluster with bright red needles while the center stack houses an interactive screen, AM/FM/CD player with MP3, Nav, and backup camera, and a simple A/C panel, all backed by a carbon fiber faceplate. This cascades onto the center console that houses the shifter, favored to the driver's side, and wearing a black boot. Charcoal carpet floods the floors with Corvette branded mats, while the cargo area is cloaked in carpet and presents in excellent condition.

Drivetrain
Under the front flipping hood, is a 6.2 liter LS3 eight cylinder that presents in showroom condition with the requisite red writing on the covers. It's mated to a Tremec TR6060 6-speed manual transmission and together the components generate 430 horsepower, routed to the limited slip rear axle with 3.42 gears. An SLP Blackwing cold air intake is noted.

Undercarriage
Clean conditions prevail underneath where the dual exhaust features a dual mode option initiated with a toggle in the center console. Suspension includes the track tuned Z51 package with large components within the complex configuration of A-arms, transverse composite mono leaf springs, tube shock absorbers and anti-roll bars. Naturally, power disc brakes are on all four wheels.

Drive-Ability
The comfortable cabin feels like a well appointed race car, because essentially that's what this sports car represents! The LS3 starts up with authority and emits a healthy growl. The car handles, pulls, and stops with perfection and in this low mileage example, all functions operate as they should and we're satisfied to put this one under the lights for others to fall in love with it. 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.

Remember that dream you had about owning a C6 Corvette? Well, looks like a nice one landed at the mall and it might be time to wake up. This one checks all the boxes; great color, low mileage, Z51, and not dorked with by previous owners! Don't hit the snooze button on this one, it won't be here long.
