1982 Chevrolet Corvette 350 V8 Collector Edition

350 V8 Collector Edition


What is your favourite sports car of all time?


1982 Chevrolet Corvette 350 V8 Collector Edition


The 1982 Collector Edition was the last of the fifth-generation Corvettes and was very much a Grand Tourer rather than an out-and-out sports car. The 350cid (5.7 litre) engine delivered only 200bhp and the car weighed in at over 3400lbs, giving a power-to-weight ratio of only 128bhp/tonne; still very respectable but a long way from the road rocket of the past. 1982 was the first year Cross-Fire injection was used and all cars that year were fitted with automatic transmission. Luxurious, but access to the luggage area was still only via the passenger compartment.
