1998 Chevrolet Corvette

Up for sale in the Houston showroom is one of the best supercars for the money, the 1998 Chevrolet Corvette. This Corvette for sale is a major change from its predecessor the C4, the C5 featured a hydro formed boxed sub frame, which is a design that offered an improved structural platform and definitely improved handling. The transmission was moved closer to the rear section of the car to form an integrated, rear-mounted transaxle assembly, connected to the all-new LS1 engine via a torque tube — an engine/transmission arrangement enabling a 50-50 weight distribution for the best handling capability. The C5 Corvette for sale is capable of matching or besting the 0–60 mph acceleration times of some of the world's most exquisite sports cars, including the Aston Martin DB7 Vantage, Ferrari 360, and Porsche 911 Turbo. A composite of published performance numbers for the base-model coupe and convertible gives a 0–60 mph time of around 4.7 seconds, and a standing quarter-mile time of around 13.2 seconds at 109 mph. As mentioned before, powering this beast is the almighty LS1 5.7L all aluminum V8. Boasting 345hp this Vette for sale has no problem even making an experienced driver drool. The selection of gears is made with a 4L60E 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission that shifts wonderfully. The interior is nothing but the best stitched with leather and covered in gorgeous black accenting. With 54000 original unmolested miles this is one of the finest C5 Corvettes in existence so dont miss your chance!!!
