Model overview

Model description

2008 marked the fourth year of the C6 Chevrolet Corvette. With it came an all-new engine for the Coupe and Convertible, various performance updates, and a selection of new content.

The big news for ‘08 was the replacement of the LS2 with the all-new LS3 as the cornerstone Corvette V8. In base form, it made 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque. Buyers could also select the dual-mode exhaust system, which increased output to 436 hp and 434 lb-ft.

Buyers could also select a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters. For 2008, the manual gained improved shift feel, and it took less effort to change gears, which improved manual shift times. The paddle shift also gained quicker shift times and the steering system was tuned for an improved feel. The available Z51 package included an updated 2.73 axle ratio with the six-speed paddle shift automatic.

A host of new features were made standard for 2008, including auto-dimming mirrors, SiriusXM satellite radio, OnStar, and an iPod/MP3 jack. The latter means you won’t need any retrofitted gear to play the music from your modern mobile device.

Other updates included new wheel designs, and two new available colors; Jetstream Blue Metallic and Crystal Red Metallic. Models were also available with a new Keyless Access remote entry with key fob, a new leather wrapped interior package, and new interior trim accents for all models. The Corvette also gained new sill plates.

In addition to the base Coupe and Convertible, buyers could select from the Z06, Z06 427 Limited Edition, and both coupe and convertible variants of the Indy 500 Pace Car replica.

Many factors can increase a car's value including excellent condition, exceptional originality, a recent restoration, low mileage, unique provenance, desirable options, popular or unique color choices, and excellent maintenance records. Upgrades and modifications that enhance performance or aesthetics can also add value.

Factors that can decrease a car's value include unusually high mileage, poor maintenance history, visible wear and tear, accidents or damage, title issues, and gaps in ownership history. Additionally, less popular color choices and extensive modifications that don't appeal to a broad audience can reduce value.

Mileage plays a significant role in a classic car’s value. Lower mileage usually increases value because it indicates a higher degree of originality, is rarer, and suggests less wear and tear. However, cars with exceptionally low mileage may also have maintenance needs due to lack of use. Whether someone should pay more for a vehicle with lower miles will depend on how they plan on using it, and the vehicle's specific condition.

The value of modified cars differs widely based on the type and quality of modifications. While some modifications can significantly increase value, especially performance enhancements and high-quality custom work, others may not add much or could even detract from the car’s value if they appeal to only a limited audience.
