NO RESERVE: 2001 Chevrolet Corvette

OVERVIEW

This 2001 Chevrolet Corvette convertible has accrued 46,543 miles since new and has staggered aluminum wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a Bose audio system. It was originally sold from Paradise Chevrolet in Ventura, California and remained California-owned its entire life. This C5 Corvette has received consistent maintenance to the LS1 5.7-liter V8 powerplant which is mated to a six-speed manual transaxle. Finished in Dark Bowling Green Metallic with a black cloth retractable roof over a black leather interior, this C5 Corvette is now offered by the selling dealer with owner’s manuals, a clean CARFAX report, and a clear California title.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

This unmodified Corvette convertible’s Dark Bowling Green Metallic (91) paint finish is noted to be in good condition consistent with the car’s low mileage. Equipment includes a black cloth power-retractable top, pop-up headlights, vented front fenders, and quad exhaust outlets.

EXTERIOR – WHEELS AND TIRES

Polished aluminum five-spoke factory wheels are staggered in 17-inch up front and 18-inch in the rear, wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 tires sized 245/45 up front and 275/40 out back.

INTERIOR – FEATURES

The two-seat interior is fitted with power-adjustable black leather buckets, matched to the door panels, dash, and carpeting. Amenities include carpeted floor mats, a head-up display, dual-zone automatic climate control, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, cruise control, and a Bose audio system.

INTERIOR – GAUGES

Instrumentation includes a 200-mph speedometer, a 7,500-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The digital odometer reads 46,543 miles, which is in line with the most recent logged CARFAX mileage of 41,346 miles in 2021 during an emissions inspection.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

The LS1 5.7-liter V8 was rated at 350 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque when new. The CARFAX shows an oil change in January 2021 along with additional historic service over the life of the vehicle. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a console-shifted six-speed manual transaxle and a 3.42-ratio limited-slip differential.

UNDERCARRIAGE

Stopping power comes from four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, and handling is assisted by the option F45 selective ride damping and Z51-spec active handling equipment.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS

The CARFAX report shows one-owner California-kept history since new with no accidents or damage on record. The vehicle passed an emissions inspection in 2021. Owner's manuals with go with the car.
