A special 2024 Chevy Corvette Z06 Convertible celebrating the 30th anniversary of the National Corvette Museum has already found its second owner. This unique American sports car recently sold in a Bring a Trailer auction for $136,000, and its original sticker price was $147,525.
The Tech Bronze graphics package makes this well-optioned C8 Z06 the NCM 30th anniversary edition. It includes over-the-top stripes that read “30th Anniversary” on the driver’s side and “30th” on the rear quarter panels, with the National Corvette Museum logo as the zero.
On the inside, it has a personalized plate on the speaker between the seats bearing the National Corvette Museum logo and reading “NCM Raffle Winner.” The seller won this car in a raffle facilitated by the NCM, and judging by the Colorado license number “1TICKET,” the seller only bought one $350 raffle ticket and won the car.
Aside from those unique details, this Corvette Z06 Convertible is equipped with the luxurious 3LZ trim and many additional options, including Spider Tech bronze aluminum wheels (RPO 5DK), carbon fiber ground effects (CFV), front lift adjustable height memory (E60), the Stealth Interior Trim package (BAG), two-tone seats in Black/Natural (HTA), black exhaust tips (J6E), the Battery Protection package (ERI), and, of course, NCM delivery (R8C).
Being a Z06, power comes from the naturally aspirated DOHC 5.5L V8 LT6, which pumps out 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed to the rear wheels via the GM 8-speed DCT.
The Carfax vehicle history report confirms that this is a one-owner car that’s been registered in Colorado since it was purchased. It also shows one service record in Colorado from September of 2024 when it only had 90 miles on it. According to the listing, it had 183 miles on the clock when it was sold.
This auction saw quite a bit of bidding activity in its final hour, with a high bid of $125,000 jumping up to the $136,000 sale price. Considering the Chevy Corvette’s famously good resale value and the fact that this is truly a one-of-one Corvette Z06, the sale price seems about right in relation to its sticker price.
Comments
Good deal for two people.
The article wrote, “Considering the Chevy Corvette’s famously good resale value”. I have owned many new Corvettes in the last 30 years. I traded them back to dealers within one year of ownership mainly due to problems (dealers did not really care about these) with the vehicles themselves. These Corvettes had no famously good resale value – it was huge. My 2023 ZO6 after 7 months of the ownership did not have any problems and no depreciation at resale. However, if I still keep it until now the depreciation will be huge. I guessed the resale is “famously good” after 10 or more years of the ownership.
One of my earlier comments about this writing, “These Corvettes had no famously good resale value – it was huge.” needs adjustment. It should be , ” These Corvettes had no famously good resale value – they had huge bad resale value”. Sorry if it caused your confusion.
Lucky Undeserving Idiot Moron won the car with only one $350 raffle ticket and then sold it to the highest bidder!
No loyalty to a one of a kind Corvette. How long they drove it? Records show only 93 miles and must have had enough driving it.
The 2nd owner with deep pockets sure wanted the car at such a price.
If one of a kind unique model Corvette, this collectors item may fetch way more money than that in the future.
