2002 Chevrolet Corvette

The introduction of the 1997-2004 'C5' Corvette marked the first all-new iteration of America?s Sports Car in 13 years. A total redesign and refinement, the C5 featured a new chassis and a milestone evolution of Chevrolet's small-block V-8 engine. Dave Hill and John Cafaro led the Corvette design team and together, they systematically addressed every shortcoming of the fourth-generation Corvette and improved, if not eliminated, them with the new model. Power was delivered by the all-new LS1 aluminum small-block engine featuring cutting-edge components and delivering 345 factory-rated horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. The new Corvette chassis featured a longer wheelbase and hydro-formed rails that improved rigidity and reduced weight. Corvette engineers worked with Hydra-Matic and Borg-Warner to create new rear transaxles with 4 speeds for the electronically managed automatic and six speeds in the manual gearbox, providing an ideal 50/50 weight distribution.

Finished in extra-cost optional Millennium Yellow paint ($600), complemented by a Black leather interior and matching manual soft top with heated glass backlite, this 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is offered in virtually as-new condition and presentation with just 10.5k miles of use. According to analysis of the clan Carfax vehicle-history report, it appears to have been under long-term single-owner care prior to acquisition by a Montana LLC. Features and options are many, including the 6-speed manual transaxle with 5^th and 6^th gear overdrive ratios and 3.42:1 limited slip axle ratio ($915). The renowned Z51 Performance Handling Package ($395) includes a power steering cooler and stiffer springs and stabilizer bars. The QF5 5-spoke 18- and 19-inch diameter 5-spoke high polished aluminum wheels ($1,295) deliver road contact with great looks. In addition to the many corvette standard features and amenities, the 1SC Preferred Equipment Group 2 ($2,650) includes dual zone a/C, AQ9 adjustable sport bucket seats, a 6-way power passenger seat, fog lamps, memory package, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with tilt and power telescoping functions, heads-up display, twilight sentinel, and electrochromic mirrors. Other options included the front license plate frame ($15) and B84 bodyside moldings ($395). Offered in exceptional, virtually as-new condition with low miles, this 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is simply an outstanding example of the modern evolution of America?s only series-production sports car.
