2002 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

The C5 Vette was launched in March of that 1997. It was a clean-slate rethink of the Corvette formula: two seats, composite body, pushrod V8 and independent suspension. The C5 shared very few parts with the earlier Corvettes—or with any other GM products, for that matter. The engineers took this opportunity to push the envelope when it came to technology and manufacturing processes, and the result was a vastly better car than before.

For consignment, a low actual mileage (15,938 miles) 2 owner vehicle that has a little surprise under the hood…it's supercharged! Electron Blue is bathing the pristine condition fiberglass sculpted body which leans toward the rounded and lower lines of this C5 version. An excellent chance to own a very nice version of the “Vette” for a very reasonable price…Act now!

Exterior
Electron Blue drapes the exterior of this sculpted fiberglass car. A sensuous body with hidden headlights, large intakes in the front bumper, scalloped sides and all very fluid surfaces, this is a serious performance car. Paint is excellent overall with just a few faults with minor peel off on the drivers door, and smaller scratches on the rear roll pan. All else is pure Corvette with the round taillights within the sculpted bumper and quad exhaust taking over the bottom middle of the rear of this car. Black trimmings for all the glass which is pristine condition. 17 inch for the front and 18 inch for the rear cast aluminum 5 spoke wheels are wrapped in low profile all season rubber.

Interior
Black leather, power adjustable, high back buckets embroidered in red with Z06 badging on the headrests await you. You'll notice on the driver's seat there is wonderful aging with slight folds of age and light use. Sliding in through the keyless entry system and past the door panels which are just as sculpted as the exterior, will put you into a cockpit with an AM/FM/Single CD Sound system with Bose Speakers, dual zone electronic HVAC, a drivers info center on the dash above the console, cruise control, and power locks and power windows. Also, a heads up display projects onto the windscreen if you like. Black carpeting is covering the floors, including the rear storage/cargo area which is accessible from the interior or through the trunk. This car looks fast even on the inside.

Drivetrain
Speaking of fast, we turn our attention to the heart of the matter in the 5.7 Liter LS-6 fuel injected supercharged V8 nestled under the forward tipping hood in a clean engine bay. On the back is a 6-speed T56 manual transmission, and for the rear axle a 3.42 ratio and is limited slip. All capable of and dyno tested to 549hp to the rear wheels. I'm blasting through this yellow light, hold on!

Undercarriage
Very clean, nothing but black painted steel and stainless steel and cast aluminum suspension. Very sound with no rust or surface rust. Active handling, and 4-wheel power disc brakes with ABS are noted, along with traction control and a tire pressure monitor.

Drive-Ability
Runs like you are on your way to a 4 alarmer! Ah yes, a fast car for sure, handles like it's on rails, stops on a dime, and offers up comfort and convenience for the driver and passenger alike. The FOB on the driver's door did not open it, so I just used the key!

Turn the key and you're off like a prom dress, a blue, (albeit Electron Blue), streak if you will. Feelin' blue? Visit the north hallway and you will be surely impressed.
