1998 Indianapolis 500 Special Edition

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

What is your reaction to this ‘98 Indy 500 Special Edition? (Your reaction may be strongly positive or strongly negative.) This 42,757 mile Virginia C5 was listed for sale on eBay two years ago for $25,995.00. If you were in the market for a Corvette that stood out from others, you might have been interested in this styling.

There were certainly some good aspects: a convertible with a 345 horsepower engine and six-speed manual transmission, an extremely unique exterior and interior color scheme, and a one-owner car that had always been garaged

The interior foreshadowed the newer Corvettes that can now be ordered with multi-colored seats and interiors.

So back to the original question: Would this car have been a total turn-off to you, or would you have adored the uniqueness?
