The 2013 Corvette 427 Convertible served double-duty as a commemorative edition model. While it marked the departure of the sixth-generation Corvette, it also commemorated the sixtieth-anniversary of the Corvette brand, first introduced in 1953 with Harley Earl’s Stovebolt-Six, two-seat cabriolet.
Powered by the Z06’s 427 CI LS7 V-8 engine, it delivered 505 HP and 470 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. At its debut, this was the most powerful engine ever offered in a Corvette convertible, achieving a top speed of over 190 MPH. Riding on ZR1-style chrome wheels with Michelin PS2 tires, it boasted Magnetic Selective Ride Control for impressive handling and comfort. Carbon fiber accents, a dual-mode exhaust, and advanced braking completed the package.
This low-mileage Night Race Blue Metallic 2013 Corvette 427 Convertible is a rare special-edition vehicle. Ordered new by its sole owner from Les Stanford Chevrolet in Dearborn, Michigan, it has only 3,400 miles on the odometer and is now available for sale on Bring A Trailer.
The power-operated blue convertible top reveals an Ebony leather interior fitted with the 1SC Preferred Equipment Group featuring blue custom leather stitching, a Bose sound system, navigation, a head-up display, heated power-adjustable seats, and Keyless Access. The car was also optioned with the CFZ Carbon Package, which added a raised carbon-fiber hood and sill extensions.
