This Year's Model Updates:

Minor refinements improve the Corvette for 2000. The Z51 performance-handling package has larger front and rear stabilizer bars for improved handling, while new thin-spoke alloy wheels with optional high-polish finish subtly change the outward appearance. Two new colors are available on coupe and convertible: extra-cost Millennium Yellow and no-cost Dark Bowling Green Metallic. A Torch Red interior can be ordered, the stupendous LS1 5.7-liter V8 engine meets LEV regulations in California, the remote keyless-entry system has been upgraded, and the passenger door-lock cylinder has been deleted.

Pros:
  • Ultra high performance, daily-driver livability, bargain sticker price.
Cons:
  • Some cheesy interior bits, slow kick-down with automatic transmission.

  • Not so good.... - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    Have had trouble and the local dealers here in Lake County Florida are real jerks. Have tried both... both rip you silly... Sorry, but I guess I had expectations... for 45k that were too high... I am replacing the car with a BMW 500 series

  • great car with some flaws - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    I have to say this car is a very good deal for the money. The car is fun to drive and it is easy on gas when at highway speeds. The handling is world class. First and second gear acceleration is very good. This car will break the rubber loose when floored while rolling at speed. I have had problems with the gas guage that has yet to be fixed. The power window motor on the pass side has gone out 2x. Also, the remote has gone out 2x. The steering lock has malfunctioned after it was replaced on a recall. The transmission pops out of reverse often. I still love the car.

    Excellent sports car for the money. It has been the most fun sports car I have ever driven. I would recommend for all sports car enthusiasts. Although, not a family car, all will enjoy riding.

  • Its everything you want....but - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    A true American sports car. Former Porsche owner - won over. Bowling Green w/Tan top, love color combo, obviously for others as they have discontinued the color. Modest interior design but coming from a Porsche,a step up. Problems w/fuel gauge (6x) replaced tanks, senders, etc.. A/C condensation leaking onto passenger floor - my own interior swimming pool.. electrical issue with radio, etc., staying on after engine shut down and door opening. Told this is not a big deal but for a 55K car it should not there in the first place.

    The Corvette has been a great car. Acceleration is phenomenal! I have owned a 1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS5, and the Corvette is quicker. Minor problems I have experienced include replacement of the steering wheel lock motor and replacement of the passenger side power window motor. There are many available aftermarket performance parts that are easy to install.

  • 2000 Corvette-3 yrs. later - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    Ive owned the car for 3 yrs. Bought it new. Great way to travel. Fun to drive. Not without problems however. For example, electonic steering column lock failure stranded me in Palm Springs. Not a bad place to break down. Oil pump failure in the 2nd year required 5 trips to 2 different dealers before factory technician diagnosed. No engine damage due to momentary initial start-up failure only. Pain in the butt however.

  • My Treasure,2000 CorvetteConvertable! - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette

    0ne year later the dream became a nightmare to this date. First it started with 5/6 trips for the fuel gauge sensor, locked sterring, 2 alternators, 4 batteries,3xs headlight motor, cd player, 4xs body control module,3xs foglights, 2xs trunk would not open,dealorship lost my keys, Leaving a few others out Im sure. And the hits keep coming!I guess I have been blessed until now. Im not alone, which does not provide me any comfort. GM offered me a 10 yr. warranty to rebuild my confidence. I want a car I can drive! Not continue to be at service.PLEASE. What an ordeal. Guess Ive had enough.

  • Been a great chevy so far - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    Bought to be a traveling vehicle for us. Avg 30+ mpg on road run 70 to 75 mph. Rides better than previous models. Above avg seats. 12 CD Changer feels cheap. Interior feels cheap. Loud interior noise for the money. Fantastic drive, though and proving to be one of the most reliable chevys weve owned.

  • 2000 Torch Red Hardtop Corvette - 2000 Chevrolet Corvette
    By -

    I bought it used with 34k miles. Since then, Ive put another 2k miles on the car. It looks and runs like new. Ive owned several sports cars and this is the best in performance. It is a world class sports car. It doesnt rattle, and everything works as it should. I had to replace the engine drive belt which squeaked. The seat rocks a bit, and the leather is worn at the bolsters. You can visit websites to see that these are common complaints. There is tire and exhaust roar (aftermarket exhaust), but I like the sound. The performance limits of the car is far beyond what most people can use.

    Great car, better than previous corvette. Design is complimented many times by non-corvette owners. Only wish could reprogram oil change to reflect fact that synthetic oils do better than 3500 miles.
