The Chevrolet Corvette is one of the most well-known sports cars in history. Each model year, Chevrolet pushes the Corvette even further, always striving to provide the best driving experience to owners. Here at Huffines Chevrolet Plano, we'd love to show you all that the Corvette has to offer.
Why Choose a Used Chevrolet Corvette?
New Corvette models are top-of-the-class each year, resulting in higher price tags. By going with a used Chevrolet Corvette, you can get behind the wheel of your dream car at a significantly reduced price. Used Corvette prices, even for models that are just a few years old or have a few thousand miles on them, are significantly lower than the latest models.
By opting to buy a used Corvette, you also have more options available. Perhaps there's a particular model year that speaks to you that you didn't have a chance to buy when it was first released. Preowned models can make that dream a reality, all while saving you money.
Understanding Corvette Generations and Trims
As you're browsing through the options in our used Corvette inventory, it can be helpful to know about the various generations and trims.
First to Eighth Generations Overview
The Corvette has undergone multiple overhauls over the years, with the current model now in its eighth generation. The first generation (C1) debuted in 1953 as one of the original American sports cars. Chevrolet then gave the Corvette a bold restyling for the second generation (C2), known as the Sting Ray.
Generations three through six (C3-C6) continued to refine the exterior styling, while also enhancing handling and performance. Starting with the seventh generation (C7), the Corvette featured a more aggressive and angular design that remains noticeable today. Now in its eighth generation (C8), the Corvette introduced a mid-engine layout, further elevating performance while remaining affordable compared to other muscle cars.
Popular Corvette Trims: LT1, LT2, Z06, Grand Sport
LT1 and LT2 are engine designations you'll find on the latest Corvettes, with the LT1 powering front-engine C7 models and the LT2 powering C8 models. The Z06, on the other hand, is a trim that's available on the C6, C7, and C8 models and was intended to improve performance on the track. Finally, the Grand Sport was available in the C4, C6, and C7 generations, combining a wide body with the handling upgrades of the Z06 to deliver better performance at a lower price.
