2005 Corvette Overview
The 2005 Corvette marks the 6th generation of its legacy, delivering more power than ever before. The C6 performance car was clearly a step above any other. It brought Corvette to a new level with the ability to hit speeds of 186MPH while hitting 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and finishing quarter miles in well under 13 seconds.
Along with the C6's power came efficiency. Its low vehicle mass, world-class chassis dynamics and 6.0L LS2 V-8 engine allows the Corvette to be an efficient vehicle on multiple levels. The 2005 Corvette has the best combination of horsepower and fuel economy among the entire world's top performing vehicles including Porsches, Ferraris and the Dodge Viper.
Not only did the power of the Corvette significantly increase, but the body designed changed drastically. It was a completely "fresh" design, yet unmistakably "Corvette". They reduced the overall length of the car while still leaving plenty of room for the passengers. They also redesigned the front grill, the hood, and the fenders to give the car a very distinguishable front.
