1980 Corvette Coupe L82 - Documented 28k Miles Sold New @ Penske Chevrolet Inc.
During the mid-1970s through about the mid-1980s, automobile manufacturers began offering cars of a higher style as stricter emissions and safety regulations conspired with heightening insurance concerns over performance cars. For the latter part of the 1970s, the Chevrolet Corvette offered customers a fabulous assortment of standard features and optional extras, creating a spectacularly comfortable sports car with leather interiors, AM/FM stereo systems with 8-track or cassette players, power windows, air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, rally wheels, twin remote-controlled sideview mirrors and much more.
While these early 1980s Corvettes didn't have the road boiling reputation of their predecessors, they were a remarkable choice for people using their cars daily, taking lengthy road trips and generally wanting to be more comfortable than not. On top of that, these cars often handled exceptionally well. The formula worked beautifully. While performance-minded customers often complained about any contemporary performance car of that era, buyers looking for stylish good looks, comfort and acres of accessories often found the Corvette to be a remarkable idea. This 1980 Corvette L82 is one of only 3,451 cars finished in Dark Claret. There were only 5,069 total L82 Corvettes built which were only available with the automatic transmission.

No, this car won't make you rich overnight. But if history is any indicator, from now on, it will always be on the way up. The low-mile, documented, original cars are always the most valuable, and this one is rarer than most C3 Corvettes. There are hundreds of low mile '78 Pace Cars and Anniversary models, but a top-of-the-line car with all options in 1980 is going to be hard to find. With low mileage and originality being so highly prized, particularly among Corvette fans, this car will always be something special. Call us today and take a trip back through time.
