2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible Launches with Premiere Edition

2014 Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition convertible

What’s green, wedge-shaped, and sure to please this holiday season? If you guessed the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible Premiere Edition—and not, say, an Xmas tree—then you win a virtual cookie


.

The new droptop model follows in the footsteps of the limited Premiere Edition that kicked off C7 coupe production. The convertible is based on the top-spec 3LT trim level, and gets the same unique Stingray wheel center caps and door-sill plates as the Premiere coupe. It also is optioned up with the Z51 Performance package, variable exhaust, and Magnetic Ride Control adaptive dampers, just like its hardtop analog. But whereas the coupe hit the scene in bright blue, the convertible wears gorgeous Lime Rock Green paint and a Brownstone-colored cabin and top. We believe there should be more green cars on the road, and this Stingray convertible is excellent proof that we’re right.



As for production numbers, Chevy will build 50 more Premiere Edition convertibles than coupes, for a total of 550. Outfitted with suede interior trim and a five-piece fitted luggage set from Thule, the Premiere droptop will cost $77,450. That’s roughly $5000 more than a regular Z51 convertible in 3LT trim (in Lime Rock Green!) with everything on the Premiere’s list of extras except the wheels and special luggage. So what? Chevy can charge for the exclusivity and likely will sell every one of these future collectibles before th

e




full run is even built. We know we put one on our holiday wish list.
