2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

The fifth generation Corvette ran from 1996 to 2004 and is fondly remembered as the last of the pop-up headlamp generation for America's favorite sports car. It's a final hurrah that's made all the more tastier by the performance-oriented Z06 package. This is why you should snap up this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 without delay, as you'll not often find a nearly two-decade-old car with just 52,000 miles on the clock. The current owner reports that it's been regularly serviced too.

Exterior and Interior

This 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 wears a lovely black paintwork that is not too deep and seemingly melts into a dark gunmetal gray under certain lighting. We think it's just breathtaking, and the current seller adds that it also rolls on remanufactured 2007 Z06 wheels. There's said to be LED lighting on the exterior, which is most apparent on the iconic quad taillamp clusters. An aftermarket lip spoiler is mounted on the deck lid, and the Chevrolet bow tie emblems are on the nose and tail. Let's not forget the pop-up headlamps. The keen-eyed may also notice that this isn't the coupe, but the hardtop, as the Z06 wasn't offered as a coupe or convertible. The black interior of this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is similarly nostalgic while not too vintage. Corvettes are strictly for a maximum of two occupants, who are cosseted in leather-trimmed seats and receive dual-zone climate control. Power windows, power door locks, and a power driver's seat with memory are part of the conveniences on offer. The driver is also treated to a heads-up display. Your infotainment needs are met by a modern Pioneer double-DIN head unit with Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth connectivity and a 400-watt 10-inch Kicker subwoofer with Kicker amp in the trunk, to augment the already impressive stock sound system.

Engine

A 5.7L V8 lurks beneath the black hood of this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, and in Z06 trim, it was rated for 405hp and 400lb-ft when new. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox. This example has also received new brakes and a custom exhaust.
