When the fifth generation is presented at the Detroit Auto Show on January 6, 1997, it quickly becomes clear that Chevrolet has made a huge step forward compared to its predecessor. With a completely new chassis that is many times stiffer than that of the C4, it is the Corvette Convertible in particular that benefits from handling and stiffness that is not just a little better, but a huge amount better.
The years fly by and the Corvette C5 turns out to be a great success. Not only on the public road but also on the track where he participates in the 24 hours of Daytona and even manages to win the 24 hours of Le Mans.
Chevrolet therefore uses enough reasons to celebrate the success and that is also the case with this copy in Anniversary Red Metallic. This Corvette dates from 2003 and this is a Corvette C5 50th Anniversary Special, quite a mouthful indeed. Not only the paint color is special for this version, but also the interior in a fresh light color and the convertible top in the same shade. It may not even be immediately noticeable at first, but the wheels are also special with this 50th Anniversary Special: they are painted in Warm Nickel Metallic. Also not noticeable unless you’re going to drive: the variable F55 Magnetic Selective Ride Control Suspension is also present.

What makes this C5 really special is the odometer reading: a unique 1,210 km of experience! In short: this Corvette is just new. That can be seen in everything, both the interior, the exterior and the engine compartment look as if the car has never left the showroom. Insane! Original paint, leather upholstery without any signs of wear: simply unique.

The great, characterful 5.7 liter V8 is a delicious American executioner. With 350 hp and enormous torque, the V8 really has more than enough power in every rev range to provide very eager performance. With this copy, the engine is also linked to a manual six-speed gearbox, so that is extra fun. With the C5, that gearbox has been moved towards the rear axle for the first time, so that we are dealing with a transaxle layout. The weight distribution between front and rear is therefore exactly 50/50.

The C5 is a pretty underrated car, although that is starting to change strongly and quickly. Very pleasant driving characteristics that are a cross between American comfort and serious sports car performance make it a kind of all-rounder. In addition, this C5 is also one of the most popular versions with a virgin mileage.
The original booklets are of course present, although we would point out that the stack of maintenance invoices with this mileage is of course very minimal.

A unique opportunity to own a new Corvette C5.
