Basic information and history

The Chevrolet Corvette C5 Convertible is an icon among sports cars, known for its classic American V8 character, period lines and modern performance. An unmistakable collector's item that combines power and comfort for wonderful miles on the open road. This example stands out as unusually well-maintained, neither rebuilt nor bolted, which is rare on the market today. With only just over 57,160 km and an impressive original feel, it is a unique opportunity to buy a convertible with a strong car enthusiast profile.

The car is imported from Germany but has previously had 8 users in Sweden , some of whom have been dealers. The current owner bought the car from Kullabygdens Bil in Höganäs after a long search for the right C5 Cabriolet. It has only been used as a summer car, which is evident from the glass and the general condition of the car.

The plastic body means that rust does not exist. All of the car's windows are engraved. The odometer reading can be guaranteed according to the owner's information. Appreciated by car enthusiasts for its fine original condition and low mileage!
