RESERVE REMOVED: 8k-Mile 1996 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Coupe 6-Speed

OVERVIEW

This 8,693-mile 1996 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport coupe was sold new by Team Chevrolet in Pasadena, California, and remained California-owned until 2019. It retains factory-installed equipment and is powered by an unmodified LT4 5.7-liter V8 mated to a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes a removable roof panel, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, automatic climate control, and a Delco/Bose CD audio system. Finished in Admiral Blue Metallic and accented with Arctic White and red striping over a black leather interior, this one-owner C4 Corvette is now offered by the selling dealer with a window sticker, a clean CARFAX report, and a clear title.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

The Admiral Blue Metallic (code 28) exterior is reportedly in brand-new shape and features Arctic White center stripes, red hash marks, pop-up headlights, fog lamps, a body-color removable fiberglass roof panel, and a dual exhaust system.

EXTERIOR – WHEELS AND TIRES

Gloss black aluminum 17-inch five-spoke wheels with polished outer lips are wrapped in Z-rated Goodyear Eagle tires sized 275/40 up front and 315/35 in the rear.

INTERIOR – FEATURES

The two-seat cockpit is optioned with power-adjustable black leather buckets with red embroidery and fitted with coordinating door panels, dash, center console, and carpeting. Features include a Delco/Bose AM/FM/CD/cassette audio system, power windows, automatic climate control, cruise control, intermittent windshield wipers, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power door locks, power steering, and a digital exterior thermometer.

INTERIOR – GAUGES

Instrumentation consists of a digital speedometer, an 8,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for the oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature, voltage, and fuel level. The digital odometer reads 8,693 miles, which is in line with the most recent figure of 8,690 miles logged in the CARFAX report in August 2023.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

The unmodified LT4 5.7-liter V8 was rated at 330 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque when new. Service was reportedly completed earlier in September 2023. Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a ZF six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

UNDERCARRIAGE

Handling is assisted by Acceleration Slip Regulation traction control. Stopping power comes from four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS

The CARFAX report begins in November 1995 and classifies this as a one-owner, accident-free vehicle with California ownership through 2019 and Florida thereafter. The sale includes a window sticker showing an original retail price of $44,219. A $499 dealer fee will be added to the purchase price.
