Original owner. Ordered new using GM dealer, option RPO B2K (which stands for twin turbo and is also seen in middle if VIN) on dealer order manifest. Car made per my specification at Bowling Green Corvette plant and drop shipped to Callaway Engineering in Old Lyme CT. Car #12 for 1989. Car #5 featured on cover of Car and Driver magazine. 66,300 miles. Never driven on track, no accidents. Car in excellent condition. Recently had oil change and inspectedat local GM dealer. New Kicker Amplifier and subwoofer, 4 Diamond Audio Speakers. New radiator. All new gaskets around top including bow gasket and doors. New headlight motors. New clutch. New single mass flywheel (converted from dual mass). Bosh injectors compatible with fuel containing ethanol. New Goodyear Z rated F1 tires. Convertible top excellent, had it replaced years ago. All new interior carpeting. New shifter knob and reverse lockout. Electronic climate control works perfectly. No leaks. New IAC valve so idle is perfect. Running condition excellent. No oil use. Under full acceleration the clutch grips and rips better than it ever did. This is a quiet car, not noisy. You can hear the turbots whistle especially with the top down. 382 HP, 562 lbs./ft. torque at 2400 rpm. Top speed 185 mph. Pulls over 1 G in lateral acceleration. Excellent brakes with ceramic pads. No fade. Everything works like new. Forget about mileage because it's how it was maintained. Cars that sit around do not get maintained. Old tires are a safety hazard.They can blow out at high speed if they are cracked. Mine are brand new. I had to wait because they were on backorder from Goodyear for almost a year. I have 5 wheels and tires. All mounted and balanced. Plus acompact spare under the rear. Never driven in winter, or rain. Car has not been used much in last10 years, but taken serious care of. Waxed it over 100 times by hand. Paint is perfect. Soft to the touch. Beautiful lustrous red.Perfect black leather interior. Driver seat has been set to the highest position but can be adjusted in all other ways electrically, and reclined. This is due to the problem Corvette seats have with chucking after a few years. So seat is tight and does not move up or down. Leather is perfect. Steering wheel is new and I have another new one as a spare in case it gets scratched or dirty. So you get an extra steering wheel untouched. Easy to have the dealer mount it. Go to Hemmings.com for more details and a video. They also offer financing to qualified buyers. Buyer must arrange shipping and pay all fees.Estimate $1000 to ship enclosed.
