Chevrolet celebrated the 70th anniversary of Corvette in 2023. However, the celebration began today after Chevy announced the 70th anniversary of Corvette’s edition for the C8 Stingray and Corvette Z06. Warning packages are available in two unique colors (metallic carbon flash with black lines and tri-coat white pearls with gray striping) and include unique celebration trim associations.
“The passion for Corvette walked far in Chevrolet, and this warning was very special because of the joy and success of sales that we achieved with the eighth generation American iconic sports car,” said Steve Majoros, Chevrolet’s marketing vice president.
Corvette Gen C1 first debuted in 1953 with inline gas engine inline cubic 235 produces 150 horsepower. Only in 1963 that the name “Stingray” came to play for COUPE CORVETTE GEN C2 second with an elegant rear end and tapered and the design of the split-back window, the last only exclusive for the 1963 model.
Of course, we all know C8 today is the first rear engine variant in Corvette history, but Chevy has experimented with medium and rear engine layout since 1959. Regardless of the limitations of the performance of the front engine platform which continues to the C7 model. (Produced from 2014 to 2019), Corvette remains a tough supercar, especially especially C7 ZR1 with a motorbike LT5 V8 755-horeepower.
All the 70th Corvette warning edition variants accept the wheel design that was bespoke with a closure of the warning center. Stingray and Z06 get their unique rim, while both share the same dark results as red striping. Meanwhile, red brake calipers, rear bumper protectors and stem cover, 70th birthday exterior badging, and special luggage sets with red stitches are also standard.
Of course, the interior gets a fair part of a 70-year-old party. Two-tone sports chairs or sports chair competition with red stitches and 70th warning logos are part of the package, while the red seatbelt and premium microfiber trim are on the insertion of tillers and chairs. In addition, 2023 Corvettes without the 70th birthday package will get interior plaque on the middle speaker grille and nifty graph in the lower rear window.
