2009 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

(from Chevrolet Press Release) 2009 CORVETTE: ENHANCEMENTS BRING MORE CHOICES, REFINEMENT TO CHEVY’S LEGENDARY SPORTS CAR

After a milestone year in 2008 that saw the introduction of the LS3 6.2L V-8 as the new standard engine, a custom, leather-wrapped interior and more upgrades, the Corvette powers into 2009 with a raft of enhancements that further distinguish it and give customers more choices – including a lower-priced convertible model.

“The Corvette is an American icon with world-class credentials,” said Ed Peper, Chevrolet general manager. “It’s the car we all aspire to own and the 2009 edition, with more choices and features, only amplifies that craving.”

New for 2009 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe:

- Color-keyed door and instrument panels with red and titanium interiors

- Power-operated pull-down hatch now standard

- Gray stitching on Ebony base seats (previously red)

- New door sill plates with the Z06 logo

- Acoustic package standard on all Z06 models

- The Z06 also receives a larger-capacity dry-sump oiling system. It upgrades to the 10.5-quart (9.9 liters) system of the new ZR1. The previous oil system held eight quarts (7.5 liters).

- The popular museum delivery option (RPO R8C) remains available for all Corvette models.
