Vehicle Detail
If you google 1993 Corvette Specifications, you will see that the torch red exterior with the torch red interior, was the poster child for 1993, however not very many were produced. Only 14% of the corvettes in 93 were manufactured with a torch red exterior and far, far less than that percentage, were made with a torch red interior, to go with it. This car also contains the the deluxe option package of torch red leather, adjustable power seats (almost $2k) and combining of all those factors, I have never seen another one like this. The car also has a one piece removeable roof which is also factory painted, torch red. The GM factory spec sheet says that they were only made in blue or bronze tint, so I'm not sure if this was a special order or not but at the least, is very rare and unusual. Unfortuneately GM does not keep those records. The car contains GM's premium, 'corvette preferred equiptment group one', their top of the line option package (see original window sticker) which added alomost $5k to to the base package and includes; a electronic climate control system, a Bose music system, including am/fm, cd and cassete, leather adjustable power sport bucket seats, selective ride control, larger tires and has beautiful gold kick plates on each door with the '40th anniversary' logo, as well as the 40th anniversary logo embroidered on each seat headrest.The car's sticker price was $39,974 and add to that dealer added options of clearcoat coating applied to the paint and dealer applied window tinting, with lifetime warranty and the car's total cost was $41,169. Add all these together and I don't think you can find another corvette like this one, a very classy combination. I've been told by at least three turnpike toll takers that its the nicest vette they've ever seen, regardess of model or year. Engine, transmission and drivetrain perform smoothly and flawlessly and the car has all the power and torque you could want. Not to be confused with the special 40th anniversary with ZR1 high performace package in burgandy. This model is a much better looking, classier and a more reliable car. My daughter stepped on the remote a few few years back, so although I have it, it doesn't work. I've seen them offered on ebay for $100-150 but I never bothered to pursue one. Tires are all very good, new parts include a new battery, new rear brakes, a new drivers seat pan with motors to make operation smoother. I've just had the AC upgraded to todays freon and AC system spec's, it's been certified it to blow cold to 43 degrees. Selling the car because I have sold the house and garage, that it's been stored in. The car comes complete with all the documentation that was provided by the dealer with the car, at the time of purchase, so the new owner will be assured it is 100% original and also provides historical traceability, very rare to have with any car. The documentation are all in very good condition and includes the following; the original window sticker, the original sales receipt, the original sales receipt for the dealer added options of Clear Coat and Window Tinting with the lifetime warranty card, the leather bound operators manual, the original coverage agreement papers for the GM protection plan, the dealers pre-delivery inspection procedure checklist, the original warranty paperwork, a corvette roadside assistance booklet, the chevrolet warranty and owner assistance booklet, a chevrolet owner satisfaction booklet, a corvette 40 year history booklet, the original corvette pen light, notepad and a 40th anniversary sweatshirt which has never beeen worn. See pictures for all of these items described.
