Used 2008 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in Grand Rapids

Seller description

Among collectors who follow the C6 generation closely, 2008 is widely regarded as the sweet spot. It was the first year Chevrolet swapped out the LS2 for the new 6.2 liter LS3, a 30 horsepower jump that brought the base Corvette to 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque, along with cylinder head and intake port improvements borrowed from the higher-spec engines above it in the lineup. Variable ratio power steering was also introduced that year, improving both high-speed stability and steering feel in a meaningful way. This one is finished in Jetstream Blue Metallic with chrome spoked wheels, and it has been kept in a way that shows genuine pride of ownership throughout. Under the hood the LS3 backs up every bit of the reputation it earned. The six speed automatic with paddle shifters was recalibrated for 2008 to respond more quickly and decisively than the version it replaced, and it suits the character of this car well. The 2008 C6 could hit 60 miles per hour in under four seconds and pull more than one full G of cornering grip, numbers that were putting it in company with European sports cars costing considerably more. Inside, the black leather cabin has been given several personalizing details that set it apart. The center console has been replaced with a stitched logo version, a carbon fiber center console adds a purposeful, premium look, and chrome upgraded caps in the engine bay extend the attention to detail under the hood as well. A trunk cover with the Vette logo, chrome outline covers on the taillights, and a cover bag round out a car that has been cared for and appreciated at every step. The plastic is still on the passenger carpet, which tells you everything you need to know about how this Corvette has been treated. The C6 was the first Corvette since 1962 to feature exposed headlights, a design choice that gave it a cleaner, more contemporary look that has aged better than almost any American car of its era. A Jetstream Blue 2008 with the LS3, the automatic, chrome wheels, and this level of care throughout is exactly what the C6 collector market is paying attention to as this generation matures.
