2003 Chevrolet C5 | Liverpool, Merseyside

A 2003 Chevrolet Corvette C5, the fifth-generation Corvette and the last to have pop-up headlights. It is known for its long bonnet, low nose and a front-mounted V8 with the gearbox at the rear, which gives near-even weight distribution. This car is black with a black interior, a dark, clean combination that shows off the curves of the body. It has a 5.7-litre V8 and two seats. It is left-hand drive, which adds an American look: the driver sits on the kerb side, so the front passenger steps out on the road side. The low, wide stance suits car photography, music videos and advertising, where the shape fills the frame. The pop-up headlamps give it a turn-of-the-century American performance look for film and TV sets. Black paint and trim suit fashion and editorial work with a restrained palette. A wedding or special day gets a sporting arrival too. The car is based in Liverpool, Merseyside.
