1999 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe 6-Speed

Description

The C5‑generation Chevrolet Corvette, produced from 1997–2004, represented a major engineering leap for the Corvette nameplate, debuting the hydroformed chassis, rear‑mounted transaxle for improved weight distribution, and the now‑iconic LS‑series V8. Praised for its balance, rigidity, and everyday usability, the C5 quickly earned a reputation as one of the most capable and well‑rounded Corvettes of the modern era. For 1999, Chevrolet introduced several noteworthy improvements, including the availability of the new “Active Handling” stability‑control system, refined interior features, and incremental updates to the LS1 drivetrain calibration.

Showing approximately 79,700 miles, this 1999 example is finished in Sebring Silver Metallic over a Black leather interior. Power is provided by a 5.7-liter LS1 V8 paired with a desirable 6‑speed manual transmission. Aside from aftermarket wheels and aftermarket mufflers, this C5 is said to remain largely unmodified.

This 1999 Corvette Coupe 6‑Speed is now offered with a clean CARFAX history report, the removed factory wheels, owner's manual and literature, and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
