1998 Chevrolet Corvette Base

Vehicle Description:

**COLLECTOR LIMITED EDITION** 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible 82nd Indy 500 Official Pace Car. Very unique and very rare find - limited number produced. If not the rarest Corvette Pace Car Replica, the striking 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Pace Car Replica is unquestionably one of the most desirable Vettes ever made -all but identical to the actual pace cars. Corvettes had paced the legendary Indianapolis 500 race four times by 1998, and Chevrolet observed each occasion by selling a limited-edition replica. The '98 shown here is one of just 1,158 built. In short, this is an unusually collectible Corvette. Aside from lacking race-required strobe lights, rollover bars, and onboard fire extinguishing system, the '98 Pace Car replicas were identical to the actual pacers, a claim none of the previous Replicas could make. It also differs in having its Indy 500 livery applied by the factory, not the owner. And striking it was, especially the wild flag logos, yellow wheels, and eye-popping yellow/black interior. Naturaly, the Replicas inherited all the sterling features of the regular ragtop. To wit: an all-aluminum LS1 V-8 with 345 potent horsepower, rear-mounted automatic manual transmission, the stiff 'Vette structure, anti-lock brakes, and a chip-controlled Active Handling stability system that helped keep the car on course and out of trouble in the twisty bits. With all this, plus sub-five-second 0-60 performance, the '98 Replica was a guaranteed sellout, and a certain collectible. The 1998 Corvette's color-shifting radar blue paint and bright yellow wheels presented some of the most extreme looks for an Indy pace car. The car is powered by the 5.7 litre LS1 V-8 engine and features an Active Handling chassis control system. The car is loaded with all options including Automatic transmission, Air, Tilt, Cruise, PW, PL, Convertible top, unique two tone leather interior specific to the Indy 500 pace car, auto climate control, traction control, Unique yellow racing wheels with Goodyear Eagle F1 Racing tires and so much more. This car was a Collector Edition the day it was built with only 1,158 limited edition pace car replicas ever produced by Chevrolet. This is a must see car that will allow you to stand out from the crowd on the street or at the car shows ( Has Special paint, Special Striping and bagging, Special Interior, Special Wheels and so much more!!)
