51 044 Miles/5.7L LS1 V8/T56 6-Speed Manual/Stunning Colors/Open Air Cruiser

2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

”Named the Chevrolet Corvette, (C5), made by the Chevrolet section of General Motors was the 5th generation of the Chevrolet Corvette performance vehicle line - spanning from 1997 through to 2004. In 2000, Millennium Yellow was the first addition; a fitting name considering the new millennium. In conjunction with this, the year 2000 saw the release of Dark Bowling Green Metallic. Apart from paint color additions, the year 2000 saw no major edits to the C5. The only notable addition was the upgrade option of the handling package, optional to the Z51.” [hidden information]

For consignment, a 2000 Chevrolet Corvette convertible with a title verified 51,044 actual miles. Don’t be fooled by the conservative, (by Corvette standards), outside color; the interior is ablaze with the uncommon Red Torch leather option which will increase your heart rate even more than the sexy exterior shape.

Exterior
You want a silver bullet? You got one with this stunning Silver Metallic C5, low and wide and complemented by the black canvas top that gently arches over the straight shouldered roadster and steeply raked windshield. A larger rear deck affords you an actual trunk without compromising the aerodynamics which start at the front’s rounded nose, streamlined intakes, and of course, hidden headlights. Tires and wheels are slightly staggered with 17-inch chrome five spokes in front and 18-inch in back. With the top down, the profile reveals a flash of red from the seat tops, unknowingly paying homage to some of the great silver on red sports cars in automotive history. The rear view is distinctly Corvette with quad tail lights over integrated splitters and central exit exhaust. Overall the paint and body are excellent with imperfections noted as minor scuffs, scratches and inclusions, a windshield chip, some discoloration on a rear piece, curb rash, and chin and front bracket scrapes.

Interior
The red doesn’t hit you all at once because as you open the doors, you’ll notice a black over red motif in clean condition and sporting red speaker covers. Turn inward and the tall leather buckets light up in Torch Red with only a touch of wear on the driver’s side. It’s accompanied by red seat belts, red carpet, and red carpeted mats with Corvette branding. That red carpet extends to the rear cargo area. Then, it’s back to black for the steering wheel, basic instrument cluster, dash, center stack and center console, all in nice condition. A big buttoned AM/FM/CD/Cassette radio and A/C panel are integrated in the center while a leather handled shifter rises between the seats wearing a leather boot.

Drivetrain
Under the hood, a clean 5.7 LS1 V8 with 350 horsepower and the standard red leathering somehow works better on this car! A Tremec T56 6-speed manual transaxle keeps power to the rear axle with 3.42 gears and limited slip.

Undercarriage
Lots of aerodynamic pans underneath and all around clean conditions. Dual exhaust runs through the original equipment mufflers and out through black tips while disc brakes occupy all four wheels. Suspension consists of independent unequal length double wishbones with transverse fiberglass monoleaf springs in front and a 5 link with toe and camber adjustment and monoleaf springs in back.

Drive-Ability
Well kept C5’s consistently deliver a great ride with plenty of power on demand, great handling, and in this interior, an extra burst of adrenaline! All functions on this American classic work as they should and are ready to deliver miles of smiles to the next owner. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

As we write this, there’s still some beach time left on the East Coast. If you’re lucky enough to live in warmer climes, this car is a guaranteed joy ride, top up or top down. The perfect coastal cruiser, canyon carver, or cruise night contributor. You’ve longed for a Corvette long enough; this very fine silver on red example is calling your name.
