You can easily trace the Chevrolet Corvette’s sports car credentials. They start with the class-dominating C6.R, which has remained the reference in GT racing, winning more Le Mans titles than any other sports car. Very fast and very reliable, the Chevrolet Corvette is where the competition set their benchmark. This racing DNA permeates through all five versions of the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette. So with nothing to prove on the track, you have everything to experience on the open road.

Nothing to prove. Everything to experience.

A performance legend more than 50 years in the making, the 2012 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is among the most thrilling sports cars in the world. It boasts incredible performance thanks to a 6.2-liter LS3 V8 that puts out the most power of any standard Chevrolet Corvette engine in history. This power is complemented beautifully by refined color and trim choices, and a custom leather-wrapped interior package.

With 430 horses and 575Nm of torque, Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is one of the most powerful open-air sports cars on the landscape. The standard power roof lowers in just 18 seconds. Indexed side-window glass, a five-bow fabric
