Chevrolet Corvette 2010

Here’s Why I Bought This Corvette for Lee Munro’s Garage—and Why You May Want It in Yours

Only 18,945 Kilometres | Grand Sport | 3LT Premium Equipment

This is not simply a low-kilometre Corvette. It has the exceptional specification, condition and history we look for at Lee Munro’s Garage.

Finished in Jetstream Blue Tintcoat over Ebony and Light Titanium leather, this 2010 Corvette Grand Sport combines genuine performance hardware, premium 3LT equipment, the factory NPP performance exhaust and a removable transparent roof panel—all with fewer than 19,000 kilometres.

Here’s why this Corvette made the grade.

Only 18,945 Kilometres

Mileage this low immediately separates this Grand Sport from the pack. More importantly, its condition reflects the remarkably limited use shown on its odometer.

It presents as a carefully preserved specialty car rather than an ordinary used Corvette—special enough to admire, yet modern and dependable enough to drive and enjoy.

Genuine Grand Sport Performance

Introduced for 2010, the Grand Sport replaced the previous Z51 package and moved the standard Corvette considerably closer to Z06 territory.

Chevrolet gave it wider bodywork, a more focused suspension, additional cooling, substantially larger brakes and much wider wheels and tires. This was not simply an appearance package. The Grand Sport delivered meaningful improvements in braking, grip and handling while retaining the comfort, removable roof and automatic-transmission availability that made the standard Corvette so usable.

Grand Sport equipment includes:

• Wider front and rear fenders
• Functional brake-cooling ducts
• Z06-style front splitter
• Taller rear spoiler
• Model-specific springs, shock absorbers and stabilizer bars
• 14-inch front brake rotors with six-piston calipers
• 13.4-inch rear brake rotors with four-piston calipers
• 275/35ZR18 front and 325/30ZR19 rear performance tires
• Staggered 18-by-9.5-inch front and 19-by-12-inch rear chrome wheels
• Performance-calibrated gearing
• Integrated Grand Sport fender badging

Chevrolet rated the Grand Sport at up to 1.0 g of cornering capability—a meaningful indication of just how much engineering lay beneath its wider bodywork.

The 436-Horsepower LS3 and NPP Exhaust

Power comes from Chevrolet’s naturally aspirated 6.2-litre LS3 V8, producing 436 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque with the optional factory NPP dual-mode performance exhaust.

The NPP system gives the LS3 a deeper, more purposeful voice when the throttle opens while remaining civilized during relaxed driving.

It is paired with Chevrolet’s six-speed automatic transmission with paddle-shift control. The combination makes this Grand Sport effortless on the highway, comfortable around town and properly fast when asked.

There are no turbochargers, artificial sound effects or complicated hybrid systems—just one of Chevrolet’s finest naturally aspirated V8s driving the rear wheels.

Premium 3LT Equipment

The 3LT Premium Equipment Package gives this Corvette the comfort, technology and finish expected in a genuine grand-touring sports car:

• Ebony and Light Titanium leather interior
• Heated power sport seats
• Driver’s memory package
• Power lumbar and side-bolster adjustment
• Head-Up Display
• Factory navigation with voice recognition
• Bose premium seven-speaker audio system
• Bluetooth connectivity
• Dual-zone automatic climate control
• Universal garage-door opener
• Auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors
• Power tilt-and-telescoping steering column
• Keyless access and push-button start

The removable transparent roof panel opens the cabin to the sky while retaining the security, refinement and clean appearance of a coupe.

An Exceptional Colour Combination

Jetstream Blue Tintcoat is one of the colours that defines the C6 generation. It changes noticeably with the light, appearing deep and richly metallic in the shade before becoming brighter and more vivid in direct sunlight.

Combined with the Light Titanium interior, chrome Grand Sport wheels and contrasting fender accents, it gives this Corvette a distinctive yet exceptionally tasteful presentation.

A Corvette We Know

We sold this Corvette to its previous owner last year. An experienced Corvette enthusiast who has owned several special examples, he was genuinely reluctant to part with it.

Its return gives us the opportunity to offer a car we already know—and one that has once again earned its place in our showroom.

The Grand Sport name also carries genuine Corvette history. It originated with five lightweight racing prototypes created under legendary Corvette engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov in 1963. Chevrolet revived the name for the limited-production 1996 Grand Sport before bringing it back for this substantially upgraded 2010 model.

That heritage gives the car significance beyond its wider body and performance equipment.

Before being offered for sale, this Grand Sport was thoroughly road-tested, independently inspected by licensed technicians, serviced as required, professionally detailed and prepared for delivery. It is offered Ontario Safety Certified.

A Straightforward Way to Buy an Exceptional Corvette
