The fifth generation Chevrolet Corvette (C5) was the most completely redesigned Corvette since Corvette’s inception in 1953. Its production actually began in 1996 but quality/manufacturing snafus saw its release to the public in mass delayed until 1997, and continuing through the 2004 model year. The C5 was a completely new design that featured many new concepts and manufacturing breakthroughs that would be carried forward to the C6 & C7. It had a top speed of 176 mph (283 km/h) and was judged by the automotive press as a breakthrough with vastly improved dynamics in nearly every area over the previous C4 design.
