We’ve shifted so many Corvettes, from the earliest 1953 examples to the latest mid-engined 2022 C8s, that we could consider ourselves requisite experts on America’s sweetheart sports car. The reason for this is the car’s huge popularity, the healthy sales numbers throughout its life so far, and the fact that it’s a bucket list item for many Americans to own and drive at some stage in their life. This 2013 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is from the sixth generation, known as the C6 and is a clean example bearing just 11,700 miles. Grab it before someone else does, as low-miler ‘Vettes are in extreme demand. It's a 60th anniversary edition, and the seller claims that only 1,000 were built.

Exterior and Interior

The C6 was an evolution of the C5, rather than a complete revolution. The most prominent change was the loss of the much-loved pop-up headlamps, replaced by fixed units. The car also features revised bodywork, and a more spacious passenger cabin despite a shorter total length. This 2013 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a gorgeous silver drop-top that will turn heads wherever it goes, rolling on its chromed five-spoke alloy wheels, with red brake calipers adding a splash of color. The car is fully covered with paint protection film and a clear bra, ensuring that the luster remains for time to come. On the inside, you’ve got a gray color theme and two leather seats for driver and passenger. Being a later-model C6, it’s well equipped, bearing dual-zone climate control, a touchscreen infotainment system, power adjustable driver seat, heated seats, multifunction steering wheel, and the usual powered conveniences.

Engine

This 2013 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is powered by a 6.2L LS3 V8 that’s naturally aspirated and sends 430hp and 424lb-ft to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox. A manual convertible ‘Vette is indeed rare, as the automatic was more preferred on the drop-top, so this car is indeed special. It’s reportedly received a new battery, and is also equipped with the Magnetic Selective Ride Control system that allows switching of the dampers between Sport and Touring mode via a center console mounted knob. When it’s time to shed speed, large, ventilated disc brakes on all wheels do an admirable job.
