Today’s Corvettes at your Corvette dealer near Marlton are, arguably, the hottest and best performing Corvettes ever made. The Corvette has a long and rich history that has brought it to this point. The C6 is today’s Corvette, and it is the sixth generation of this amazing American sports car.
The C6 Corvette builds on the success of the previous generation. The C5 Corvette, in particular, demonstrated revolutionary changes. For example, for the first time the transmission was no longer bolted behind the engine. Instead, it was split and placed at the back of the car. This helped to offset the weight of the engine in the front of the car. In addition, wheels and tires now were 18 inches for the back tires and 17 inches for the front tires.
The frame was new for the C5, too. It featured plenty of strength, and used engineered wood products on the floor. The overhangs were reduced, and the clamshell hood was done away with.
The engine of the C5 was new, too. The “Gen III LS-1” featured all-aluminum design, and could put out 345 horsepower. The power of the engine, the amazing chassis and other enhancements helped propel the Corvette back to the top spot in American sports cars.
Think the C5 Corvette was great? You haven’t seen anything yet. The C6 takes the Corvette to an all-new level. Test drive one today.
