Vehicle Description
A low mileage 2004 Chevrolet Corvette convertible with a six-speed
for the price of a base family sedan?! Yes, you can easily justify
this purchase because the value price of this future classic is
sure to hold better than a Camry over the years. But really this
drop top's attractiveness is because Corvettes are always a blast
to drive.
There's something irresistible about a red Corvette. It's embedded
in the tradition of America's sportscar, just as the distinctive
low, long hood of the C5 that gives it a classic appearance
connecting it with previous generations. It's this long-standing
patriotic feeling of America's sports car that makes this one of
the few times you can get such a bright cherry hue without
appearing boisterous. This factory-applied Torch Red has such a
deep luster, we'll bet it looked this way the day it left Bowling
Green. Between the paint and averaging less than 5,300 miles a year
these are a clear indication that this was used more for pleasure
driving than commuting. But more that just luster of the red, a
proper American classic deserves some bright chrome. So this one
has the optional deluxe high polish five-spoke wheels.
The all black interior is one of the most desirable combinations
with red convertibles because it's so classically attractive. The
leather bucket seats provide the perfect balance of sports car
bolstering and all day comfort padding. This is especially true
since both are power adjustable, so you and your passenger can find
the perfect luxury position. Corvettes come loaded straight from
the factory, and this one has plenty of great modern features. It
includes dual zone climate control, leather-wrapped steering wheel,
dual airbags, AM/FM/CD stereo (w/ additional CD changer), power
windows, power locks, anti-theft system, and keyless entry. There's
even the convenient windshield heads up display (HUD). Most
family-sized convertibles don't even offer a real trunk, but this
personal sportscar has more than enough storage space for a
two-person roadtrip. You can go on a golf holiday with the clubs
and the luggage neatly stowed out of the way even when the top is
down. Now that's a recipe for a great driving weekend!
Under the hood is the original LS1 V8. The 5.7-liter motor was a
huge leap forward in Corvette technology as it's effortlessly
powerful, suitably quiet, and surprisingly economical. It is one of
those powerplants that releases a fierce growl when intimidated,
but the animal remains tame and caged when it's not time to be
aggressive. Best of all, you get to have complete control over the
V8 with the six-speed manual transmission. This convertible also
comes with power steering, four-wheel disc brakes, ABS, cruise
control, Sumitomo HTR ZIII tires, and a fully independent
double-wishbone suspension that includes the optional Performance
Handling Package. So this convertible has a great all-around
package for everything from tearing up the asphalt to cross-country
cruising.
You know how particular Corvette fans are, so you'll be happy to
have plenty of documentation like the reproduction build sheet,
reproduction window sticker, maintenance records, and even a dyno
sheet. It's the kind of assurance that you can enjoy your great
cruising convertible now, and if you do decide to sell this future
classic down the road, you already have the right paperwork to help
maximize your value. A C5 with the right colors and the right
features will only be affordable for so long. Time to grab the good
life at a value price now. Call today!!
