The Corvette is the great American sports car. It's thrilling to drive, ith breathtaking acceleration performance and excellent grip for hard braking and high-speed cornering. Corvette is one of the best bangs for the buck when it comes to high performance. For the price of a midsize luxury sedan, he Corvette delivers supercar performance. It's easy to drive on a daily basis, nd maintenance costs are not exotic.
2008 brought an all-new V8 engine for the Corvette Coupe and Convertible. The new LS3 V8 is larger, t 6.2 liters versus the previous 6.0-liter LS2 engine. Output is now 430 horsepower, n increase of 30. An optional dual-mode exhaust system raises horsepower to 436. Indeed, he 2008 Corvette can lap a racing circuit nearly as quickly as the previous-generation Z06, legendary car. The new LS3 engine rumbles wonderfully, nd the acceleration it produces is intoxicating. It quickly infuses a driver with confidence. Its brakes are fantastic. And, t's blazingly fast. The six-speed automatic transmission works great and lives up to the advanced technology in the rest of the car; it can be shifted manually with paddle levers on the steering column. The convertible is plain wonderful. Drop the top on a nice day, op in your favorite CD, nd you might have what psychologists call a peak experience, moment where you revel in being alive. It's a fantastic feeling, nd at those moments the Corvette more than justifies its price. The aural sounds of the burbling V8, he body-colored trim that surrounds the cabin, he feel of power beneath, t's automotive heaven. The Corvette can be a reasonably comfortable daily driver in most locales, or at least three of the four seasons. This generation Corvette is not a crude car, nd its performance does not exact a painful toll on driver or passenger. It gets an EPA-rated 26 mpg Highway, etter than most SUVs. For 2008, hevrolet Corvette had more standard features, ncluding OnStar tele-aid service, M Satellite Radio, n auxiliary audio input jack, nd auto-dimming mirrors. A more luxurious leather package was added as well.

The 2008 Chevrolet Corvettes look the same as the 2007s, n spite of their bigger engines.
The Corvette is low and sleek. From some angles it's almost pretty, nd it shows a bit of Italian flair. Throughout the car, unctional elements dictate design and the result is a forward motion that implies performance.
The lines of the bulging hood, he shape of the fenders, nd the cat's eye headlights all point forward to a subtle beaklike shape. A pair of fog lights flank a wide air intake below.
Vents behind the front tires let hot air out of the engine compartment. The sculpted fenders, harp creases that sweep dramatically up to the planed rear deck, all to mind race cars as well as jet fighters. At the back, our round taillights recall Corvette's past and make the car look like an F-18 taking off in full afterburner mode. On the functional side, he optics of the reverse lights magnifies the light they throw out to help when backing up in this beast. To move weight from the front of the Corvette, he transmission is mounted behind the seats and connected to the differential, ather than being attached directly behind the engine. There's no need to take the key out of your pocket to unlock the Corvette or start its engine. Simply walk up and pull the door handle. With the keyless start feature, ensors detect your key and unlock the door. Climb in, uckle up, nd press the starter button. We're not sold on the benefits of keyless starting, ut it can be convenient. The convertible's five-layer fabric top is available in four colors, nd it offers power operation. The power top operates with a single-button control and completes its cycle in 18 seconds. An easy-to-operate manual top is standard. The convertible looks good with the top up, nd it looks terrific with the top down, ith body-color trim that gives it the racy appearance of an open-cockpit Le Mans prototype.
The convertible gives up some cargo capacity. It offers 11 cubic feet of storage with the top up, hich isn't bad for a roadster, nd 7.5 cubic feet with the top down.
