Chevrolet
Corvette 427 Convertible (2013)

Why it matters

The 2013 427 Convertible Collector Edition was the first Corvette convertible to carry the Z06's 505 hp LS7 engine, in the Grand Sport's wide body. It was offered in the Corvette's 60th year, the last C6 model year.

How rare is it?

Each kind of rarity is rated separately and never combined.

Production

Every figure says what it counts.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

Chevrolet built 2,552 of the 427 Convertibles at $76,900 for 2013, out of 13,466 Corvettes that year; the last C6 left Bowling Green on February 28, 2013. The 60th Anniversary Design Package could be added, and a CorvSport listing says roughly 1,088 427 Convertibles had it.
