One of the most iconic sports cars in the world today, the Chevrolet Corvette has stood the test of time, constantly evolving with each generation while still staying true to its automotive heritage. One of the greatest works of the American automotive industry, this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette L82 is now reaching half a century in age but is still going strong, having little to no changes to its mechanical heart, except for a few parts being replaced, such as the fuel cap, oil pans, brakes, and tires, and a new harmonic balancer. With 47,500 miles reported on the clock, this Corvette has been treated with much love. According to the current owner, this Corvette has undergone a recent oil change if maintenance is something you consider important as well.
The look of a Chevrolet Corvette has changed over the decades. However, the raw, aggressive feel that the Corvette evokes has been a constant with each iteration. True to the aesthetic, this 1979 Corvette sports an aggressive design language, featuring a low, sporty stance and long, broad, swooping lines that follow the car from front to back. The current owner reports that new tires are fitted to its wheels, adding a touch of metallic shine to break from the striking red. As for the inside, the current owner reports that the beige interior found in this Corvette is original, with no changes from when it first rolled out of the factory. With plenty of room for its two passengers, this Corvette’s interior is a breath of fresh air, beautifully preserving its retro look and feel, with the only exception being the addition of a more modern stereo head to make sure you can still play your favorite tunes without lowering the quality of sound to what it was decades ago.
Featuring a 350ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission, this Corvette has plenty of power under the hood to deliver all the performance you would expect. To continue powering the rear wheels, the current owner reports that this Corvette has been fitted with a few newer components, including a new water pump, timing belt, and fuel cap, among others. Its independent suspension system, with unequal-length A-arm, coil springs, and stabilizer bar at the front, and the rear having a trailing arm, transverse fiberglass leaf springs, and stabilizer bar ensure that the car is still under control at high speeds. This Corvette’s four-wheel disk brakes provide plenty of stopping power too, letting you push this car to the limit, bringing plenty of smiles in the process.

It’s hard to believe that it's been four years since Chevrolet first revealed to the world the all-new 8th generation mid-engine Corvette. At that time, Chevy did a phenomenal job completely changing the perception of the Corvette, especially with its exotic car looks and mid-engine design. It not only has exotic sports car performance but also is easy to live with on a daily basis. Compared to its competitors, it has an affordable price tag, which brings exotic-level performance within reach to a broader audience. The C8 is offered as both a convertible and a coupe, and what we are showing in this listing is a 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Premium 3LT Coupe. It only has 7,500 miles on its odometer and is available for sale in Florida.
Chevy’s C5 Corvette is always a special one. The last of the pop-up headlamp brigade, the C5 was an all-new design that took over from the C4 in 1997. Produced until 2004, over 248,000 examples found homes during its production run. This 2002 Chevrolet Corvette is one of them, and comes with a light 32,000 miles under its belt. It’s got some cosmetic and performance enhancements as well, making it even more of a hoot to drive. Plus, it’s sure to be a future classic, so if you buy it, you’re a winner today and tomorrow as well.
The seventh generation Corvette, or the C7 as it’s officially known, is one for the history books. This was the last time that America’s sweetheart sports car would place its engine ahead of the passenger cabin. With the switch to a mid-engined layout for the C8, C7s are definitive future classics. Plus, they’re suitably modern enough to offer most of the tech toys and creature comforts we take for granted in 2024. Case in point, this 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2LT Z51 with just 8,800 miles on the odometer. It’s a fantastic sports car and can easily perform daily driver duties. But, when the mood strikes, it can get your adrenalin pumping and your heart racing with excitement.
Chevy’s Camaro and its stablemate, the Pontiac Firebird were introduced in 1967 as GM’s pony car duo. Not content to let Ford have all the fun, the General was firing on all cylinders.

This generation would run until 1981 and was a totally new design. If you’re a fan of the second-generation Camaro, check out this 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta, which is up for grabs. The current owner says that they purchased this car new, and it’s an all-original one. Having a healthy 236,000 miles on the odometer, the car is ready for a new owner and fresh adventures.
