Chevrolet is celebrating its 100th anniversary by launching the 2012 Centennial Edition Corvette. Essentially an appearance package, it will be available on all current Corvette variants, including the ZR1.
Distinguishing the Centennial Edition is Carbon Flash Metallic paintwork, satin black aluminium wheels (19” front / 20” rear for the Z06 and ZR1-based versions, 18” front / 19” rear for everything else), red brake callipers, satin black graphics and a unique Corvette badge. Magnetic Selective Ride Control is also included in the specification.
The black colour theme continues on the inside, where the instrument panel and doors are covered in Ebony leather, and the seats are upholstered in the same leather with suede micro-fibre inserts. Completing the look is plenty of red stitching and embossed centennial logos on the headrests.
Pricing has yet to be confirmed, but the 2012 Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette will be available in dealers this summer.
Before that though, a Z06 Centennial Edition - the 100th 2012 Corvette produced - is going to be put up for auction at the Barrett-Jackson event in West Palm Beach, Florida, on the 9th of April. All proceeds from the sale will go to the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer.
