About
This generation played a pivotal role in cementing the Corvette’s reputation as the king of American sports cars. Its futuristic yet refined design captivated audiences worldwide. Its performance was equally impressive, thanks to a 5.4-liter OHV V-8 engine producing more than 295.9 HP, combined with 4-wheel independent suspension and a short wheelbase.

No sports car says "America" quite like the Chevrolet Corvette! This second generation model, also known as the Sting Ray was especially popular. Later versions featuring the L88 racing engine are very collectable, and regularly sell for over $1 million. This 1963 coupé is perhaps best known for its split rear window. It's a design feature that was only used in the first year models because it limited rear visibility. The one-year "split window" Sting Rays are hugely popular, and are among the most collectable Corvettes.
