The 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible belongs to the fifth generation (C5) of the mighty American sports car. This particular generation is praised globally for its exceptional build quality and engineering innovations. It was produced for seven years, from 1997 through 2004, while the Convertible model was first introduced for the 1998 model year. Here, we have one of those early examples, but not in its stock form. This 1998 Corvette Convertible has been heavily modified with upgraded internals to crank out around 150 horses more than its stock output. It is also fitted with several upgraded cosmetic components, enhancing the aggressive exterior appeal of this mean machine. With 62,000 reported miles on the odometer, this open-top Corvette is in impressive condition. The current owner reports a recent oil change and a new set of tires.
The exterior design of the 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible represents a combination of retro and modern styling. Its popup headlamps and beige soft-top convertible roof are the most eye-catching exterior elements. However, this Corvette has been enhanced with an aggressive-looking, functional L80 hood scoop, along with blacked-out wheels and a rear spoiler. This one-of-a-kind build gives it a unique appeal that is visually aggressive yet elegant at the same time. On the inside, the interior is trimmed in black while the seats are specced in black and beige upholstery with contrasting red stitching and LS1 embroidered badging. The central infotainment system is an aftermarket unit from Bose, with Bluetooth connectivity.
The 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.7-liter V8 engine, dubbed LS1. This motor, in its stock form, outputs 345 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of maximum torque and comes mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. However, this Corvette has been heavily reworked and enhanced with upgraded components. The current owner reports new upgraded aftermarket camshaft, headers, and a new Hurst shifter. These upgrades result in a whopping reported power output of 500 horsepower, which is a significant upgrade over the stock car. To put a leash on all those horses, the car gets vented disc brakes at all four corners. The suspension has also been augmented with a lift kit comprising front and rear independent setups with transverse composite leaf springs and short/long arms. In conclusion, this 1998 Corvette Convertible is a tastefully specced machine with notable performance enhancements.

The Porsche 911 is on nearly every automotive enthusiast’s bucket list. This iconic rear-engined rear-wheel drive sports car was introduced by German automaker Porsche in September 1964. Its unconventional drivetrain layout and air-cooled engine quickly gained it a cult following. Throughout its life, the 911 has retained its iconic teardrop silhouette and rear-mounted engine, although that switched to a water-cooled unit in 1998. So, if you’re on the hunt for a Porsche 911 from a relatively modern era, consider this 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet. Coming from the 991 generation, this car has seen a healthy 73,000+ miles in its life so far, which is a testament to how enjoyable it is to own and drive.
