"Oh, where to start with the Corvette Stingray? Should I begin with
the mid engined body, which offers such balanced handling that I
couldn't spin it on the track, even if I tried? Drive modes so
smooth that I had to remind myself to check the speedometer because
the massive increase in speed was almost imperceptible? A
changeable head-up display that enabled me to optimize what I could
see based on whether or not I was on the track? I wish I could
narrow it down." Jalopnik, Sept. 2021
For consignment, a 2021 Chevrolet Corvette 2LT coupe with a title
verified 12,508 actual miles. This is a two owner car that's always
been garaged, has been ceramic coated, and came from Bowling Green
with more than $15,000 worth of options including the Z51 handling
package.
Exterior
Sexy, sinister, suggestive, it's all there wrapped in Shadow Gray
Metallic paint where everything's that notbluish gray is black. And
not just any black but glossy highlights that include the rear
quarter vent reveal, the rear valance and splitter, the mirror
posts, and of course, the optional Trident spoke 19 and 20-inch
wheels. They carry staggered size tires, the fronts with an early
2021 date code and the rears from late 2025. The sculpted hood,
practically scalloped here, leads to the steeply raked windshield
and an optional smoked, translucent targa top, also shaped to
defeat the wind. Out back, the wide, ground hugging tail retains a
wing that adopts the same contour, all in an effort to increase
speed and good looks, and it works in both cases. The only
imperfections we find are the requisite chin scrapes that only
showroom examples lack.
Interior
The doors hint at the interior palette with black leather with
light stitching matched with a Sky Cool Gray panel with shapes and
lines that mimic the exterior dynamics. Inside, optional GT2 bucket
seats show boldly in the light gray, here optioned with torch red
seatbelts and it makes for a dynamic profile. The rest of the
cockpit is driver focused with a flat sided steering wheel, bright
digital screen that gives you endless bits of information, and a
linear row of switchgear canted toward the pilot. The AM/FM radio
has all the options for Apple, Android, Bluetooth and satellite.
The passenger gets a broad dash, some vents, and the enjoyment of
being along for the ride! It's all in fantastic condition thanks to
the low mileage and pampering protectors. There are small, lined
cargo areas at both ends, also presenting as practically new.
Drivetrain
Under the rear hatch is a bright red 6.2 liter LT2 V8, normally
aspirated and rated at 495 horsepower, (that's "about 500" when
asked!). Behind it, a Tremec TR9080DCT 8-speed automatic dual
clutch transaxle spinning through 5.17 gears with limited slip. The
bay is clean and fresh and frankly, one of the better looking
modern engines you'll find!
Undercarriage
The underside will shed wind like water on duck's back thanks to
entire coverage with smooth belly pans intended for aerodynamics.
But if you had X-ray vision, you'd note the dual exhaust running
through original equipment mufflers and out through dual quad tips.
The Z51 suspension has magnetic ride control and an SLA
configuration at both ends. Power disc brakes are at all four
wheels of course and can be seen from the outside with the optional
Edge Red calipers.
Drive-Ability
Blistering speed, incredible handling, a modern marvel of
engineering wrapped up in a beautiful package that's so good, it's
been compared to the best Ferrari's. No complaints here as this
practically new car does everything well and without flaw;
everything works as it should. 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.
You've waited long enough. You've seen them on the road. The trial
period is over and the verdict is; the C8 Corvette is a winner in
every way. Here's a fantastic example of a nicely optioned spec
that makes it unique.
