2004 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe — LS1 5.7L V8, Maroon over Tan, Clean Undercarriage Why This Car Is Special The 2004 Chevrolet Corvette holds a specific place in C5 history. It was the final model year of the fifth-generation Corvette, a platform that ran from 1997 through 2004 and is widely regarded as one of the most well-engineered American sports cars ever built. The C5 arrived with a completely redesigned chassis, an all-new LS1 V8, and a level of structural rigidity and chassis balance that the Corvette had never achieved before. By 2004, GM had eight years of refinement behind the platform, meaning this car represents the most sorted version of the C5 before the C6 took over for 2005. The 2004 model year also marked Corvette's 50th anniversary program year — Chevrolet celebrated the milestone in 2003 with a special edition, and the enthusiasm carried into the final year of production. For buyers who want a C5 that is fully loaded, mechanically proven, and at the peak of its development, the 2004 is the logical choice within the generation. This specific car is finished in maroon over a tan leather interior and is equipped with the LS1 5.7-liter V8 backed by the 4-speed automatic transmission. The VIN decodes this as a standard coupe body style built at the Bowling Green, Kentucky assembly plant — the only facility that has ever produced a Corvette. The undercarriage photos confirm a clean, dry floor pan and suspension cradle with no signs of rust, rot, or prior collision repair, which is exactly what you want to see on a car of this age.

Introduced in the C5 Corvette in 1997, it was an all-aluminum, small-block V8 producing 350 horsepower and 375 lb-ft of torque in base Corvette form. The architecture was a clean-sheet design — not a carry-over of the old LT1 — and it became the foundation for nearly every high-performance GM engine that followed, including the LS6, LS2, and the entire Gen IV family. The LS1's combination of light weight, compact dimensions, and impressive output made it genuinely competitive with European sports cars that cost two or three times as much. Paired here with the 4L60-E 4-speed automatic transmission, this setup delivers the full 350 horsepower to the rear wheels with smooth, predictable power delivery. The automatic was a popular choice for buyers who wanted performance without the daily driving demands of a six-speed manual, and it has proven to be a durable unit in the C5 application. The C5's chassis is another engineering highlight. It uses a hydroformed perimeter frame — a first for a production Corvette — that provides torsional rigidity significantly greater than the C4 it replaced. Front and rear independent suspension, with a transversely mounted fiberglass leaf spring at each end, gives the C5 a ride and handling balance that was considered exceptional for a production car in this price range. Active Handling, which is essentially a stability control system that can modulate individual brakes and throttle to correct oversteer or understeer, is present on this car and represents a meaningful safety and performance benefit.
