1999 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

Description

Bright red boldness, drop-top appeal, and proper control over the V8 with a six-speed stick... this 1999 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is an awesome fuel-injected driver's machine that knows how to put the wind in your hair and a smile on your face. And it does it all for a value price.

When it comes to Corvettes, there's always a magnetic level of attraction when dressed in Torch red. This shows all the signs of being the original factory application, and it continues to have the kind of radiance you want in a sunshine-friendly drop-top. The full package shows this has been a well-cared for machine. You see it in the fit of the body panels, the pliable rubber seals, and the way the alloy wheels still have a mirror-like shine.

The tan convertible top has a stylish look against the red, but the real distinction is when you take it down. You get the same tan inside, but this one has been upgraded for better coordination. For example, the seats have covers protecting the supple leather underneath. And these look quite nice as they hug the form and really unite the exterior red and interior black accents. And other details like the red shift boot and patriotic Corvette logo in the steering wheel all make this feel like the kind of car that got extra thought and care. Of course, you'll also love this Corvette because it's a loaded machine. It has power windows, power locks, keyless entry/alarm, rear defogger, tilt steering, cruise control, power steering, dual airbags, and a premium AM/FM/cassette stereo with CD changer and Bose speakers. And it's easy for you and your passenger to dial-in an individual level of comfort with dual-zone automatic A/C climate control.

Under the hood is the correct 5.7-liter LS1 V8. While there is a ton of added shine that makes this one look great, real enthusiasts will love that there is Will Cooksey's signature on the inside of the hood. He was the long-time plant manager at the Bowling Green factory, including when this one was built. So you know a true Corvette fan was in charge of this drop-top. These were rated at 345 hp from the factory, and this one increases that a little more. It inhales deeper with a cold air induction, and it exhales out of an upgraded exhaust. You're in complete control over this performance motor and its rumbling soundtrack thanks to the six-speed manual transmission. Plus, this Corvette has the benefit of a fully independent sports suspension, optional active handling, four-wheel disc brakes w/ABS, and modern grippy tires.

The sale comes complete with the original window sticker and owner's manual. This convertible comes with a ton of the best extras, and in fact, the only addition you don't get is extra cost. So it's time to hurry up on this enthusiast's C5. Call today!!!
