The Chevrolet Corvette has been a true American icon since it was first introduced in 1953. This Corvette C8 for sale is part of the radically redesigned 8th generation of Corvette. The 8th generation saw the engine move from its forward position to a mid-engine layout that departs from decades of Corvette design.
This Chevrolet Corvette C8 for sale features a powerful 6.2L V8 engine positioned behind the driver. The visceral V8 is able to produce 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. The newly updated engine features a dry-sump oil system that makes sure the engine is properly lubricated even under the most extreme of G forces. A first for the Corvette Stingray is an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. Paddle shifters allow the driver to make the gear selection on their own. But even when not in control, the Corvette is tuned to keep the gear within the engine’s peak power band as often as possible.
Altogether, the new C8 for sale is able to hit 60 mph in a lightning-quick 3.3 seconds.
As a result of the engine being moved, the Corvette C8 attains a lower center of gravity. Combined with an improved suspension, this is undoubtedly the best handling Corvette ever produced. An updated shorter and stiffer electronic steering system allow the driver to take full advantage of this nimbleness with every driver input being faithfully followed.
Stepping into the interior of the Corvette C8 for sale, one can immediately see that GM has taken a “driver first” mentality. The entire leather and metal adorned interior is positioned to face the driver. The interior is meant to cocoon the driver and make sure they are planted even during the most spirited driving sessions. The leather seats feature beautiful stitching and are generously bolstered to keep you and your passenger secure.
The racing-inspired steering wheel is not only flat-bottomed, but flat on the top as well with a contrasting leather strip. This allows you to quickly keep track of the wheel’s orientation even during chaotic track sessions. The squared upper portion also allows an unobstructed view of the gauge cluster.
Behind the steering wheel is a generously sized high-resolution 12-inch digital gauge cluster. It works in tandem with the 8-inch screen sitting at the top of the center stack. These screens offer a host of information to the driver such as vehicle status, navigation, and music selection. The system is compatible with both Android Auto as well as Apple CarPlay. Almost all of the Corvette’s physical controls are neatly aligned in one strip at the edge of the center console, allowing for an interior that isn’t cluttered.
A host of different driving modes are also available to make the Corvette just as comfortable to drive on city streets as it is on the track.
With the foundations of the Corvette changing, it’s no surprise that the shape of the vehicle is a departure from the previous Corvette. As is common in the supercar world, GM has cited the F22 and F35 fighter jets as inspiration for the exterior design of the C8. The new Corvette C8 for sale sits low and features plenty of bold body lines throughout. Plenty of large air intakes dot the exterior to make it clear to everyone that this Corvette is harboring a powerful engine.
This Corvette C8 for sale also features an easily removable hardtop to take advantage of any sunny day. The top can be placed within the front trunk allowing you to always have it on hand should the weather worsen.
While the shape of the C8 Stingray should grab peoples’ attention on its own, the screaming yellow color contrasting with black trim pieces will be sure to make your presence known.
The Corvette C8 brings supercar performance at a sports car price. A combination of mid-engine handling, powerful V8, removable hardtop, and a great price is just a hard deal to beat.
