This wonderful car is in superb condition and has been a great friend. It has never been in an accident or had a mechanical failure. It has always been garaged and has been driven very gently.

This is a Corvette and it has a lot of engine. It redlines at 6,000 rpm, but cruising at 80 mph it’s turning only 1,600 rpm. Speedometer goes to 200 mph. In town we average 21-23 mpg, on the highway 30-32 mpg.
