Used 1998 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in Houston, Texas
Gateway Classic Cars is happy to present this nicely preserved 1998 Chevrolet Corvette convertible. This is an unmolested, 2 owner C5 with only 34,995 CarFax documented miles. Finished in Light Pewter metallic with the black convertible top and black leather interior, the 1997-2004 C5 Corvettes are poised to be the next series of desired collectables. This example is equipped with Chevrolets LS1 (5.7L/348CID) producing 345hp & 356 lb-ft of torque and is paired with the Borg-Warner 6 speed transmission and its rear mounted transaxle, giving the C5s an almost even 51/49 weight distribution. And despite the 1998 engine displacement being the same as the C4’s LT1, this 5.7 liter engine was constructed of aluminum instead of iron and was a more aggressive, more durable design than its predecessor, even though the LS1 shared the same time-honored “440” cylinder block layout (meaning 4.40 inches from bore center to bore center) and the familiar 5.7-liter displacement label. This led to 0-60mph times in the mid-4 second range while still getting 18mpg city/25mpg hwy! The 1998 Corvettes is sitting on a newer set of Goodyear Eagles and came stocked full of standard options, so you can expect all the same in this one. Also included is the owners manual and a 2nd key & FOB.
