Great car, fun to drive, get lot of compliments.

The yellow 2005 is my 8th Vette I've owned, and other than a 1966 with 427 / 4 speed convertible (should have never sold) this is my favorite. I have 72k miles, and I enjoy cruising with the top down. The only reason I would consider selling it is to get another 66 or 67 big block. A very reliable, fast car.

The 2005 Chevy Corvette convertibles are great

I just bought a used 2005 Chevy Corvette convertible with 56,000 miles. The car is beautiful inside and out. I'm very happy with this car. I hope to enjoy it for a long time? So far No problems.đŸ¤

Checks all the boxes

Purchased my 2005 vette used with 23k miles in 2012 I have had it for 10 years, 1 tune up, very low maintenance. Checks all the boxes I have almost 99k miles. She is a head turner thumbs up. Almost every time I take her out she gets a compliment. When I park it and walking up to it I always think if it was not mine that I would love to have it. Driven it cross country twice she loves to run the faster you drive the faster it wants to go. It's my 2nd corvette I had a 88 centiniel edition 35th off the assembly line. As much as I liked that one my 2005 puts it to shame love this car!!

2005 Corvette Coupe Terrific!

I purchased a 2005 Corvette coupe from the original owner over two years ago, with approximately 53,000 miles. The only issue I had was an automatic transmission shift issue, which was disclosed at time of purchase. The repair cost about $850 in 2020. I now have 59,000 miles and have had no major mechanical problems. The only minor problems encountered are (1) dashboard lights delay at startup, but only occurring about 5% of the time, and (2) cd player has to be engaged twice to operate. I just replaced the driver side sun visor due to mirror/vanity lights coming apart. This Corvette is in beautiful condition, with tires replaced and always waxed and kept in garage out of the direct Phoenix sun. I recommend the 2005 Corvette to all sports car buyers.

If not the best almost the best vehicle I have had

I bought mine in used conditions even though I can assure you this is a great and reliable fast car the only aspect I don't click 5 starts is the interior cause it is not a luxury car it's a sport car and they have never had a beautiful interior design

Head turner

Love to cruise in it with top down. Easy like Sunday morning. Even on hot days turn the ac on and cruise with top down
