Lot details

Registration No: FJ57 PJU
Chassis No: 1G1YY26U275119515
MOT: April 2025

  • 'Victory Edition' No.023/250 celebrating the Corvette as Le Mans GT1 Champion 2001-2006
  • Supplied with extensive service history including the original book pack
  • Showing only c.46,800 miles from new.

Utilising the 404bhp version of the LS2 V8, front engine and rear-wheel drive with a weight of just 1420kg, 6000cc, 395bhp, and 400ft-lbs of torque at 4000rpm. Produced in only two colours, Black or Velocity Yellow, it wore Competition Grey 18" aluminium front wheels and 19-inch rears. The interior featured two-tone leather seats embossed with the iconic flag emblems.

Supplied new by the official UK concessionaire Stratstone Corvette and Cadillac, Reading, this particular car, No.23 of 250, was specified in Black with the complementing Ebony and Red interior, with Grey door sill plates, carbon-look interior trim and a unique numbered 'Victory Edition’ badge on the console. With the factory build-sheet confirming the factory specified ‘Option Z51 - Sports Package’, it has evidently seen previous ownership with a member of the Corvette Club UK and has been well-maintained by the current owner. We are informed ‘the car drives great’, however, the vendor informs us of a temperamental fuel gauge. Whether it’s to experience an icon of the road for a great drive, a track day, or a trip to Europe, this is an opportunity to own a limited edition C6 with the naturally aspirated 400bhp LS2 V8, pulling 400lbs of all-American muscle at 4,400rpm. The Corvette is fitted with a Tracker that the new owner could re-activate with a subscription. There’s a comprehensively stamped service book, file of history and bills, book pack and keys, along with the current V5C Registration Document.
