2014 Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition

IT’S HERE…

What could be a better holiday gift to Budds’ Chev than a Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition?

This limited edition has been running through our minds the past few months… at an impressive 455 HP might I add… and now that it’s here in our showroom I can’t stop staring at it.

So what makes this special edition so special?

The Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition’s Appearance

Starting with a Laguna Blue exterior and a Brownstone Suede interior, this Stingray is sharp and luxurious. Made for sport, all new chrome wheels, a carbon fibre dash, carbon fibre roof, and a ‘Carbon Flash’ hood stinger stripe. The special Stingray logo is prominent all over the vehicle, and the interior is adorned with a special silver plaque telling me that we have number 458 out of 500 produced. Each Premiere Edition is the same trim level, 3LT, and comes with a special set of custom Corvette luggage designed to fit in the trunk perfectly.

 

The Corvette Stingray’s Performance

Every Premiere Edition Stingray comes equipped with a 6.2L V8 engine, and all except one have a 7 speed manual transmission (only one automatic!). Each comes with the Z51 Performance package, including magnetic ride control, a performance exhaust, and more. Just be careful not to pop the clutch or you might drive through a window.

 

Corvette Stingray’s Legendary Distinctiveness

With only 500 Premiere Edition Stingrays made and spread throughout North America, you can be sure that this is a truly unique vehicle that you won’t see all over the roads. The regular Stingrays hardly have a chance to stay at the dealership for more than a day, for they are all pre-ordered and picked up by the customer almost as soon as they get here.

That’s why these were made and distributed to eligible dealers who had top Corvette sales last year so they can display them in the showroom. Then, it is up to the dealership whether or not we want to sell it. We love having one in the showroom, because it makes it a bit easier for those of you who want to order a Stingray, you can come and check it out in person!
