2014 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 Convertible 3LT
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 Convertible 2-Door Description
Go topless this summer in this beautiful 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 Convertible 3LT. You'll be only the 3rd owner of this low mileage made-in-America sports car.
The C7 is a total redesign from previous models and speaking from experience I can tell you it's worth the extra money over buying a C6. The C7 features an aluminum space frame that is 99 pounds lighter than its predecessor yet 57% stiffer, while a carbon nano-composite floor pan replaces the heavier balsa sandwich construction of the C6. Inside, the C7 boasts a cockpit that for the first time puts it on par with some of Europe's best. The driving position is near-perfect, and the seats are vastly improved, with increased comfort and better support for hard driving. An 8-inch touchscreen dominates the center console, while soft-touch materials are more abundant. Finally, this model offers 15 cubic-feet of cargo room under the rear hatch -- enough to hold luggage, golf clubs, or even your families groceries. Plus the power convertible top is operable at speeds up to 30 mph.
The heart of the Corvette, of course, is its powerplant. The 6.2L direct-injection V8 has been completely rethought and now delivers 455 horsepower and 460 foot-pounds of torque. This car has the optional 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, plus dual mode performance exhaust, which increases output to 460 horses. It also has the The Z51 Performance Package which adds larger wheels (19-inch front, 20-inch rear vs. 18/19- inch), a dry sump oil system, electronic limited slip differential, larger front brakes (13.6-inch vs. 12.6-inch) with slotted rotors, performance gear ratios, special suspension components, differential and transmission cooling and an aerodynamic package to reduce lift and improve high-speed stability. 0 to 60 mph time is 3.8 seconds! Other performance options include Magnetic Selective Ride Control with performance traction management, black aluminum wheels and red brake calipers. This car also had the really cool option of Corvette Museum Delivery (look that up on YouTube if you don't know what it is).
The 1LT, or base, trim offers a 9-speaker Bose audio system, rear vision camera, keyless access with push-button start, power tilt/telescopic steering column, 8-way power leather seats, two 8-inch HD color displays, and a Driver Mode Selector, which allows drivers to customize the driving experience by selecting one of five distinct modes -- Weather, Eco, Tour, Sport and Track. Each mode adjusts steering, throttle, traction and more. 2LT Corvettes get heated and ventilated seats with Corvette emblems, an upgraded Bose sound system, auto-dimming mirrors, Chevy's color Head-Up Display and SiriusXM satellite radio. Finally 3LT cars offer all of the above plus a custom leather-wrapped interior with Nappa leather seating (mine has the optional competition sport bucket seats), navigation and color-matched instrumentation to the interior. Standard safety features in all Corvette Stingrays include stability and traction controls, a rearview camera, driver and passenger front and side airbags, and OnStar.
This car sold new for almost $80,000! Buy it now at a fraction of that price. Believe me, you won't be disappointed.
