We welcome the transformed new Corvette with a look back at the ways it was in years past

21. 2005 Corvette

The C6 generation of the Corvette was sold to consumers through to the spring of 2013. Despite GM’s difficulties during these years, the Corvette managed to buck the trend.

Speaking of performance, what else can be said about the ZR-1 version that hasn’t already been gushed by its legions of fans. If the sight of this car doesn’t win you over, likely the 6.2L V8 developing 620 hp and 595 lb-ft of torque under the hood will do the trick.
