Introduced in 1997 the "C5" generation Corvette was a radical styling departure from the angular C4s. In addition to looking more contemporary the C5 featured General Motors latest technology including drive-by-wire throttle variable-effort steering and optional magnetic selective ride control suspension. With an all aluminium LS1 5.7l V8 and lightweight composite bodywork the C5 offered performance on par with contemporary Ferraris and Aston Martins. A 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds and a 13.3 secon...d quarter mile mean this Corvette still packs a punch. The car comes with all standard equipment along with the 50th Anniversary package; Memory Seat package auto dimming mirrors Magnetic selective ride control power telescope steering wheel with tilt twilight sentinel heads up display and 50th Anniversary badging. Further features are the body side moldings 2.73 rear axle shale colored soft top and warm nickel metallic alloy wheels. With just 8178 miles this anniversary edition is one of the nicest ones we've seen. The paint is shiny and flawless and the interior dashboard has not a crack or blemish. The seats have a little bit of wear but no cracks or stains. With just two previous owners and exceptionally low miles this is a very nice car. The stunning Anniversary Red exterior and the Anniversary Shale leather interior are an eye catcher and the exclusivity of the 50th anniversary make this a collector grade C5 Corvette.
