Vehicle description
1996 CHEVROLET CORVETTE GRAND SPORT #305 GM Certified 1 of only 4 equipped with exactly the same combination of Regular Production Options (RPO"S) 1 of only 1000 Grand Sports Ever Produced - Low Miles : 34k Miles 1 Owner History - Clean Title - LOADED with Documentation CarFax Certified - Highest AutoCheck Score - RARE Find
Originally priced at just over $50,000, the Grand Sport has recently been touted by CNN Money as one of the Top Ten Most Valuable Corvettes. Only 1,000 Grand Sports were built. Each car carries its own unique VIN sequence, distinct from all other 1996 production Corvettes. The amazing example you see here is VIN 1G1YY2257T5600305, making it 305/1000. This vehicle is impressively also 1 of 4 ever made RPO GM Certified Grand Sports. Significantly, all original factory paperwork including window sticker, manuals, keys, invoicing, maintenance records, original delivery photos, and GM Certification of 1 of 4 build, are all included and depicted. The Grand Sport needs literally NOTHING. It has over $5000+ in brand new tires and brakes and mechanically it"s up to date on all maintenance/service. Cosmetically it"s in showroom condition. It"s been very well pampered and documented by it"s sole owner, adding so much value to the collectibility. What is a Grand Sport? For the 1996 model year, Chevrolet decided that a very special Corvette was necessary to commemorate the highly successful C4 generation. Chevy decided to build a very limited run of visually stunning special editions named Grand Sport, all paired with brute power and performance. This special car was named after the famous lightweight factory Corvette racers of the early 60"s, only five of which were built before Chevrolet famously exited from factory participation in racing. These Corvette"s are one of the most collectible and desirable amongst all collectors. Echoing the original, the new Grand Sport featured a special Admiral Blue exterior with an Arctic White stripe up over the hood and rear deck, two Red hash mark stripes over the left front fender, Black spoke ZR1 style wheels, chrome badging and GS embroidery on the headrests. But what really made the car so special was the one year only "Grand Sport" LT4 engine with its distinctive red intake manifold, conservatively rated at 330 HP and available only with the 6-speed manual transmission. Equipped with F45 Selective Real Time Damping suspension, dual power Sport seats, electronic air conditioning, Delco-Bose stereo with CD/cassette and a 6-speed manual transmission, it is a true time capsule of one of the most iconic and visually recognizable Corvettes ever produced. It"s truly one of the most aggressive and memorable models ever produced. In 1996 it was hard to stack any American Muscle car against the Dodge Viper GTS, however, the Grand Sport gave the Serpent a run for the money in terms of desirability, rareness, and nostalgia. It"s truly a collector car.
