Chevrolet Corvette Used Car Sale

Those looking to buy a used sports car are very familiar with the ultra-classic Chevrolet Corvette, This is one of the few models that have managed to stand the test of time. And adapt to the changes that have transformed the used auto industry over the last 55 years that the almighty "Vet" has been part of the used car motoring scene.
The modern used Chevrolet Corvette features a projection system for on-board data display onto the windshield, designed to let the driver keep his eyes on the road at all times. Good for day and night, and it is steerable, so that the engine speed, oil pressure, speed and the basic parameters of the machine are available to drivers, as found in a fighter aircraft. An original 1953 first generation Corvette is a long way from that kind of high tech equipment.
One thing the modern used Corvette shares with the original is that it just plain looks good. The corvette through the ages has consistently produced classic sports car lines that used car dealerships love to park close to the road to attract rubber-necking of less fortunate used vehicle drivers.

You do have to be a little energetic to lower yourself into the cockpit like environment of the passenger area that sits pretty low to the ground. The whole vehicle is "low slung" and the front skirt has a tendency to be easily caught on any high roadside object especially when parking, but that's one of the very few minor drawbacks to this iconic used car.
If you are search the classifieds or trawl your local used auto dealers the most likely engine you will find in a used corvette is the 5.7L version that gives out 340 hp, which is a very powerful motor but it does devour gasoline. But this is a sports supercar, the brand has introduced numerous nuances in this legendary small block, aimed primarily at a sweetened response, to make it more pleasant and above all cleaner in terms of its CO2 output, fast becoming a major part of used vehicle considerations.
The latest engine is a 427 cubic inch 435 horsepower with the new system of no less than three twin barrel Holley carbs, although a rare L88 model was offered, with the help of a single quad-carb from Holley, which is capable of a whopping 560 horsepower. Although the GM listed its output at 430hp, they indicated that this model was strictly intended for operating on a closed circuit, and not to be used on the road. And we are sure that anyone who could get behind the wheel of such a used dream car would not want to show it off on the open road, then again.
If the truth is told, it is the name that is perhaps one of the main attractions of a used Corvette. It has a certain appeal that comes from its very long history and many people strive to buy a used Corvette because it was the first car that interested them when they were children or perhaps their favorite uncle owned one. This is a used vehicle that is very much built on history and reputation.

But on balance, we are talking about a V8, which already was an old acquaintance in the fifties, when it was introduced in the first Corvette. You can not go wrong with any generation of the stunning used Corvette; just take a trip around the used car dealers to see what is available.
