2007 Corvette Convertible Indy Pace Car - LS2 V8 11K Actual Miles Documented!
When Andretti Green Racing's Dario Franchitti took the checkered flag at the Indianapolis 500 on May 27, 2007, part of his prize for winning what has been deemed the “Greatest Spectacle in Auto Racing” was a 2007 Corvette Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Edition. For the ninth time in 29 years, Corvette took lap at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway as the official pace car of the Indy 500. And to celebrate the occasion, Chevrolet built replicas to sell to collectors, Indy fans, and whomever else gets in line for one of the 500 special ragtops that Chevrolet rolled out of its Bowling Green, Kentucky, assembly plant.
Powering the 2007 Indianapolis 500 Corvette Pace Car Edition is a 6.0L Chevrolet LS2 small-block engine power rated at 400 HP. Backed by a Borg-Warner T56 Super Magnum 6-speed automatic transmission, the 2007 was capable of 0-60 MPH in 4.1-seconds with a top speed of 186 MPH, certainly fast enough to pace the race. True to form, the 2007 Corvette was also a handler with its Magnetic Ride Control suspension, cross-drilled vented rotor 4-wheel disc brakes—13.4-inch diameter front and 13-inch diameter rear—and Z-rated Goodyear tires. Capable of producing 0.286 g on a skidpad, these cars were visually decked out to the nines with a Z06 spoiler and Atomic Orange paint adorned with Indy 500 gold-ribbon graphics.
The 2007 Corvette Indy Pace Car's dual cockpit interior was trimmed in Ebony leather with Indy 500 embroidered head rests and Atomic Orange-painted accents. Also onboard is a 180 MPH speedometer, BOSE AM/FM 6-CD changer audio system and On Star navigational system. This 11k mile, Limited Edition 2007 Corvette convertible Indianapolis 500 Pace Car is one of 500 Z4Z Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Editions produced in 2007. This particular example is equipped with the optional MXO 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, dual-zone climate control, a plethora of power options and showcases the pace car edition-specific 2008-style wheels in sterling silver.

Since the first Corvette paced Indy in 1978, it has become sort of the "unofficial official pace car" of the big race, with subsequent appearances in 1986, 1995, 1998, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006 and of course, 2007. However, this is the first time since 1998 that Chevy has offered a pace car replica to Corvette's adoring fans.
