Chevrolet Corvette (1998-2001) Review

Category: Convertibles 3.5 out of 5

Summary of the Chevrolet Corvette (1998-2001)

Price Range: No data available

Assets

Goes like a Porsche 911, costs half as much. Handles well on smooth roads.

Drawbacks

Left-hand drive only. Very wide for British roads.

Verdict

A little crude, a little eccentric in Europe, but certainly exciting.

Review

Comfort and Equipment3 out of 5

Fine electrically adjustable leather seats, good climate control, cruise control and a sensible driving position all add to comfort (an auto gearbox was optional). But tyres and wind kick up a lot of noise, the trim rattles and the suspension doesn't absorb bumps much at all. Sometimes it seems to create them. It's strictly a two-seater, but there are some cubby-holes, plus, in the coupe, decent boot space.
