Chevrolet C5 Corvette
The C5 Corvette was the long-awaited replacement for the C4 model and was completely new in every sense of the word. The first thing that was different about the C5 Corvette was the sleek new body. There was nothing outdated or boxy about the beautiful new Corvette models. The C5 was also offered in a few special additions, such as the Linginfelter (via Hot Cars).
But it wasn’t just the styling that was different; it was what was under the hood. The new LS1 V8 engine was a completely modern power plant. The performance of the C5 Corvette is still revered to this day because of its excellent engineering.
