2005 Coupe

The C6 debuted in the 2004 Detroit Auto Show.  Later, the convertible was announced in Geneva.  The C6 is not a radical departure from the C5.  The frame, chassis and many other components were upgrades based on the C5 platform.  Externally, one of the biggest changes is the exposed headlights, ending a tradition that started back in 1963.  The C5 was most likely the last production car in the world to use hidden headlights.  The engine is the new LS-2, a 6.0 liter small block from the Gen-III family of engines.  It produces 400 HP and 400 lbs/ft of torque.

       Robert built this C6 in the classic color combo of the original Corvette: white with red interiors.
