About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

All original Collector Edition Corvette with only 248 miles since new. Paint is very good with only a few minor blemishes. Panel fitment is very good. Engine bay is showing age and wear. Undercarriage is very clean. Interior looks new with no wear. An excellent example that's been part of the same collection since 1989 and very much been treated as a 'Collector Edition' from new.

Market commentary

Produced as a special version to see out the final days of the C3, the Collector Edition 1982 cars were nevertheless not all that enticing to drive, which makes it easier to keep it in a sealed garage and admire its good looks. In over 30 years, this car has racked up less than 250 miles and it will probably never travel more than 300 at this point. It's been under careful ownership for a long time and, given the very strong price paid here, it's probably off to another carefully kept collection for the foreseeable future.
