For 50 years, the Chevrolet Corvette has been carefully crafted from a precise blend of power, performance, style and
comfort. As it celebrates five colorful decades in the automotive business in 2003, Chevrolet's flagship continues its reign
as one of GM's technology and style leaders.
The 50th Anniversary Special Edition, available only during the 2003 model
year on coupe and convertible models, is a tribute to a half-century of automotive leadership. It includes special Anniversary
Red exterior paint, specific badging, Shale interior and champagne-painted anniversary wheels with special emblems. It also
features embroidered badges on the seats and floormats, padded door armrests and grips and the convertible features a Shale
top. The package includes Magnetic Selective Ride Control.
New on the Corvette for 2003, Magnetic Selective Ride Control
uses a revolutionary damper design that controls wheel and body motion with Magneto-Rheological fluid in the shocks . By controlling
the current to an electromagnetic coil inside the piston of the damper, the MR fluis consistency can be changed, resulting
in continuously variable real time damping. As a result, drivers feel a greater sense of security, a quieter, flatter ride
and more precise, responsive handling, particularly during sudden, high-speed maneuvers.
