The Appeal

To mark 25 years of "America's only true production sports car", Chevrolet pulled out all the stops with a commemorative Corvette. Offered here is a tribute to the 62nd Annual Indianapolis 500 Pace Car. This car really looks the part, and packs a punch thanks to the L82 high-performance 350CI (5.7-litre) V8. Moreover, this one's that bit more special thanks to a four-speed manual gearbox.

Offered in smart condition and with all duties and VAT paid, this Corvette is ready for a new owner to register in their country of choice. The car comes with a USA title and EU import documentation, making it easier for European buyers to register.
