Reinforce your knowledge of your dream car with Hemmings Buyer’s Guides on the Hemmings YouTube channel.
In the first feature installment, we’ll share the details you need to know when shopping for a 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette. Dubbed the C5, three body styles made up the fifth generation Corvette. Introduced in 1997 with the coupe, followed in 1997 with the convertible, and then the Z06-reminiscent fixed-roof coupe, the C5 delivered an all-new third generation engine in the LS1 and a rear end mounted transaxle. Is the C5 the best deal in Chevrolet performance at this time, or have the haters buried the fifth-gen? Decide for yourself as Terry McGean shares the details with Hemmings own C5 Corvette coupe.
