Too much fun & expensive hobby!

The 97 corvette is a lot of fun, you never satisfied you always wanna put more power or better ride or your own little things to make your own style like better seats, better stereo or lambo doors. It's definitely a weekend or vacation car with gas prices as it is.
So just know that you're going to be putting in a lot of money into it and not driving as much. Because driving in the city you're only going to get about 15 to 16 miles to the gallon and on the highway around 30 to 32 miles a gallon @ 60 to 70 dollars to fill up.
Congrats if you driven one and shame on you if haven't.

This car is a ton of fun!

Reliablility and interior material good. Performance, handling, comfort and sound system all Excellent. Gas milage and around the town driving are both amazing for a car with this much power. 1997 was the first year of the C5 and there were not many built that year. Great car that will soon be a classic!

Look no further, the C5 is an amazing car that delivers in every aspect. Chevy out did themselves with the C5. The managed to build a great sports car that also has the comforts of a luxury car. There is nothing better for the money.

The car looks fantastic with a sleek body and it handles like a car should. Plenty of power and the controls are great. I would highly reccomend the 1997 Corvette to anyone who likes to have fun driving.

Get the manual trans, the automatic is a pooch

The car handles amazing, steering is tight, the suspension is firm but not too firm, is blast to drive with the top off, looks beautiful, yet the automatic is pretty slow off the line

No problem at all. Had mirror fixed, keep going out of adjustment. 41,000 k excellent mint condition. To fast for me at 70 yrs old but a lot of fun. Run great, handles great. Carmine red color, looks beautiful in this color.
