The Chevrolet Corvette has occupied place of pride in the brand’s pinnacle sports car slot since 1953, and is currently on the eighth generation, making the Corvette one of the longest-running nameplates in automotive history. This 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe from Texas is from the model’s C5, or fifth generation. With just 26,500 miles since new, it’s reportedly well-maintained and comes with the original manual and paperwork too. The C5 generation is gaining desirability as it ages well, and values are on the rise, and this candidate is an ideal way to get into owning a relatively modern Corvette that will be a classic in time to come.
This 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe wears the most popular body style of its generation, which is the fastback coupe. This profile was popular as it allowed for a glass roof panel to be specced, which this Torch Red car proudly wears. It rolls on a set of five-spoke chrome alloy wheels that are wrapped in tires that are described as “like new” by the seller. With its bright paintwork, pop-up headlamps and quartet of chrome exhaust tips at the rear, this ‘Vette is sure to turn heads wherever you take it. The interior sports a black color theme with two powered leather seats, including memory function for the driver seat. Power windows, power mirrors, power door locks and power trunk release are some of the functions, as well as dual-zone climate control and a Delco Theftlock radio with CD player and premium Bose speaker system. The clear instrument panel looks like it just rolled off the assembly line if you disregard the odometer. All in all, the interior has relatively little wear for this low-mileage car.
Except for the first generation, subsequent Corvettes have been powered by V8s, as anything less would send loyal fans into a frenzy. This 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe carries the automaker’s LS1 V8 under its hood which displaces 5.7L (345ci) and puts out 350hp and 365lb-ft to the rear wheels via a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission. The C5 was the first Corvette to have a drive-by-wire throttle, as well as variable-effort power steering. The performance figures were very good for the time, and remain decent in 2022, with a zero-to-sixty time of under five seconds and a top speed in the region of 170mph for the automatic.

Considering an eighth generation Corvette? We don’t blame you; Chevy’s sweetheart sports car is now a fearsome, baby supercar chaser. With its fighter-jet looks, mid-mounted V8, and capable handling, the C8 is a serious driver’s car. Yet, when you need, it can be as docile as a pussycat, as comfortable as any other car, and can even perform daily driving duties without so much as a grumble. That’s got to be reason enough to give this 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible 3LT Z51 70th Anniversary Edition a new home. Want another reason? The car’s got under 3,000 miles on it. If you’re still on the fence, let us tell you a bit about this car.
Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
The fifth generation Corvette was revealed in 1997, and would run until 2005. It is the last generation to have the pop-up headlamps, which were discontinued with 2005’s C6 due to inability to meet newer crash regulations. That’s why C5 Corvettes command a special place in the hearts of enthusiasts. That, plus the fact that the C5 has some neat engineering. For example, the transmission is at the rear of the car, coupled to the front-mounted engine via a torque tube that turns at engine speed. This arrangement enables the C5 to achieve the magic 50-50 front-rear weight distribution, vastly improving its handling over the C4. This, plus myriad other upgrades, makes the C5 a definitive future classic, as well as a sports car that you can still enjoy in 2024. So why not jump on the bandwagon of fun and buy this 2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible? This car comes with recent servicing, two keys, and 56,067 miles on the odometer.
