1997 Chevrolet Corvette C5 Targa - Torch Red …
Mind blowing as new 1997 Chevrolet Corvette C5 Targa in Torch Red with a genuine 17,026 Miles on the clock. Full NSW registration and LHD import from Florida, USA. For sale from the Sydney Showroom.
While the C2 Corvette is the most-loved generation to date, the C5 is regarded as the most forward thinking model. With perfect 50:50 weight distribution, torsional stiffness five times greater than the C4 and stacks of room inside for two people and their luggage, a slinky 0.293 Cd drag factor with the headlights lowered, the potent 345hp aluminium-block LS1 V8 up front and, for the first time on a Corvette, a rear transaxle.
It was also the first time in history that Corvette buyers could choose from three different body styles: a targa-top coupe, a convertible and a hardtop with a boot.
Corvette buyers had come to expect pavement melting performance from a Corvette. And the C5 did not disappoint! How does less than 12 seconds to reach 160 km/h, and a top speed is just north of 275 km/h sound?
The big difference between the C5 and the earlier Corvettes was in the handling department. The C5 is a pure joy–decisive, balanced, cat-quick and laser-precise.
