When talking about American sports cars, the Corvette name comes first.
In 2008, the C6 Corvette was offered as a coupe and convertible as well.

While Chevrolet made the Corvette coupe for high-performance driving, the convertible version was designed for leisure driving. But beware, that convertible was not the usual shopping car. It could outpace many other vehicles on the road, but with an enhanced view of the sky.

The long and slim silhouette of the Corvette was always fascinating for car enthusiasts all over the world. It represented one of the quickest and fastest cars for the buck spent. Its lines and the new exposed headlights were a big step forward for its design. At a glance it didn’t look so much different than the C2 Vette (apart from the pop-up headlights). The slim vents behind the front wheels and the four exhaust in the back warned the bystanders that the car could run in a split of a second. The four, round, taillights were as emblematic as those found on a Ferrari.

The interior was fit for two passengers, with enough legroom and a low seating position. The power-roof helped the driver to open or close the top. On the center stack, Chevrolet offered a 6.5” touch-screen display for the infotainment unit. As an option, a Bose sound system was installed. Like its predecessor, it offered a complex, head-up display, which could show various information, including the lateral acceleration.

Under the hood, the 2008 model featured a new, 6.2-liter engine able to provide 430 hp. It was paired with a new 6-speed manual. A 6-speed automatic was on the options list.
