9k-Mile 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible 50th Anniversary Edition 6-Speed

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

When the C5 Corvette debuted for 1997, it raised the bar for what America's sports car could be. The new hydroformed frame was exceptionally stiff, the 5.7-liter LS1 V8 made 350 horsepower, and sweeping bodywork announced that the Corvette had entered a new era. The 2003 model year brought with it the 50th Anniversary Edition: a special package combining exclusive Anniversary Red paint, Shale leather, champagne wheels, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, and more, to mark half a century of America's sports car.

This particular example pairs the Anniversary package with a desirable 6-speed manual transmission and now shows approximately 8,600 total miles. It is said to remain unmodified throughout. A limited-slip differential, leather seating with 6-way power sport seats, and a 12-disc CD changer are factory options.

Acquired by the seller in 2013, the vehicle is said to have received regular maintenance over the years and an oil change and battery replacement in preparation for the sale.

This 50th Anniversary Edition is now offered at no reserve with a window sticker, a car cover, multiple keys, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean South Carolina title in the seller's name.
