Motor Trend Car Of The Year-
The Chevrolet Corvette C5, recognized as Motor Trend's 'Car of the Year' in 1998, represented a significant leap forward in terms of design, performance and technology for the iconic American sports car. The C5 was the first Corvette to feature a hydroformed frame, which improved rigidity and handling compared to previous models. It also introduced a new rear-mounted transaxle for better weight distribution and performance.
Nice C5 Example-
This 1998 Corvette roadster is a very nice, mostly original example of the C5. The factory Arctic White paint has been well maintained and is in very good condition. Eptyrest performance radials are mounted on factory 5-spoke alloy wheels (17f/18r"). The removable custom hardtop includes a storage rack and the roadster's manual convertible top, also in very good condition, tucks easily into the boot.
Interior C5 Features-
The Light Oak interior was restored in 2023 and is in very good condition. Corvette C5 equipment includes climate control A/C, power tinted windows, power seats, tilt wheel, power locks and keyless entry. Other features include cruise, dual airbags, security system and premium Bose AM/FM/Cassette/CD-Changer sound system.
LS1 Power-
The Corvette C5 drivetrain is based on the GM aluminum 5.7L LS1. This powerful 10:1 compression engine produces 345 BHP @5600 RPM with Sequential Multi-Port Injection System (MPI). Torque is delivered through an automatic four-speed/OD rear transaxle. This combination delivers excellent highway mileage.
Revolutionary Chassis Design-
The chassis, based on the revolutionary C5 backbone design, is equipped with power steering, 4-wheel ABS power disc brakes and traction control.
This Corvette is an outstanding C5 model - take it home and enjoy the ride!
