2003 Chevrolet Corvette 50th Anniversary

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette 50th Anniversary Edition for your consideration. Largely regarded as one of the best deals on performance cars, the C5 Corvette is powered by a 5.7L V8 that produced a strong 350 horsepower before the additional modifications this example has. Additional performance modifications include modified heads, a performance camshaft, upgraded intake, performance fuel injection system, an aftermarket air intake, and a Corsa exhaust. The selling owner notes that the performance modifications came from Mallett Cars out of Charleston, NC. The V8 is mated to a smooth shifting, desirable 6-speed manual transmission that goes into each gear confidently. Power is sent to the rear wheels and the exhaust makes a glorious note especially with the more aggressive cam set up. All of this, along with four-wheel independent suspension, and magnetic ride control make for a wonderfully driving sports car.
In 2003 Chevrolet celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Corvette. As a commemoration to the anniversary, Chevrolet included special edition badges on 2003 models of the Corvette. This example has a striking appearance as it is finished in Millennium Yellow over a black interior.
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-aluminum 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 second quarter mile mean this Corvette still packs a punch. In full disclosure, the traction control light is on for this example.
