The fifth generation of the Chevy Corvette will forever go down in history as the last hurrah to the pop-up headlamp. By the time this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 left the Bowling Green factory gates, it was one of a handful of cars in the world that came with this much-loved feature. This car is something of a unicorn, as it's got just 11,000 miles on its wheels since new. Furthermore, it's a completely original example in a rare color to boot. Read on to find out why it deserves your home and your heart.
Electron Blue is the name of the shade that cloaks this 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, and we've got to agree; we haven't seen many 'Vettes sporting this lovely blue hue. A set of silver-gray double-five-spoke alloy wheels only add to its allure, wearing the requisite high-performance tires. You'll also note that this car is a hardtop variant, which is the only body style that was offered for the Z06 pinnacle performance variant. Another Z06 special is the brake duct observed just ahead of the rear wheels, and it's functional. The brake calipers are picked out in red for some brightness. Inside, you'll find a well-appointed cabin for two occupants in a straight shade of black. Red Z06 emblems are stitched into the headrests of each seat to remind you that this isn't a regular C5 'Vette. There's also a Delco head unit with CD playback and AUX connectivity, a Bose speaker system and two-zone climate control. You'll also find a trip computer as part of the package. Remember that the Corvette represented the cutting-edge technology at the time and offered as many creature comforts as possible. This continues even with the current C8 generation.
This 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 packs a tuned 5.7-liter LS6 V8 that develops 405hp and 400lb-ft, sent to the rear wheels through a crisp six-speed manual transmission. This combo enables the car to be launched to sixty from rest in just under 4 seconds by an experienced driver if the conditions are right. That's impressive in 2023 and must have been positively jaw-dropping in 2003. We are told that the car has received a recent oil change too.
