スーパーチャージャーを装着した450馬力のC5コルベットが160万円は安い！｜2000年型 シボレー コルベット クーペ カスタム

The 41st car in the "Buying a Used American Car on a 2 Million Yen Budget" project is a tuned C5 Corvette equipped with a Magnuson supercharger. Details of the vehicle are as follows: ↓ 2000 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Vehicle price: 1.6 million yen Mileage: 164,071 km (approximately 60,000 km after engine replacement) Inspection: August 2021 Engine: 5.7 liter V8 LS1 + Magnuson supercharger Transmission: 4AT (reinforced) Body color: White Interior: Custom Officially imported 2 passengers Customized parts: Magnuson supercharger kit, NOS, shotgun muffler, WORK LS aluminum wheels (F/19, R/20), 1-inch down kit, sports shocks, reinforced stabilizer, C6 Z06 brakes (front and rear), front bumper processing, rear spoiler, sports handle, aftermarket shift knob, additional meter, etc. This car is in stock at 6 Degrees in Osaka. Most of the used cars introduced on this channel are photographed while I'm doing something else, but this time, I went to Osaka to cover this car because I wanted to drive it. For me, who has long owned a genuine imported 2000 C5 Corvette, the same model as this car, this car, which was equipped with a supercharger kit and was put up for sale for 1.6 million yen, was something I couldn't ignore. If this had been a stock car from a store I didn't know at all, I would have passed it up, thinking, "It's probably going to be wobbly anyway." But if the dealer is 6 Degrees, a long-time contract shop of American Car World, and the car was built by a skilled mechanic I've been using for a long time, it's a different story. Anyway, I managed to adjust my schedule and went back and forth to Osaka, but to cut to the chase, I'm a little regretful. That's because I want to drive the C5 again (laughs). I gave up on two-seater sports cars when I had a child, but I still love sports cars. However, in today's living environment, it is impossible to buy the latest sports car just for fun. If I did that, I would lose custody and get divorced. But I had a bad idea, "If it's this price, I can make it if I try hard..." "I can't switch cars, but I can secretly buy another car and put it in the company's name so that it won't be found out in the automobile tax notice..." (lol). That's how interesting this car was. As I say at the end of the video, to be honest, I can't recommend this car to people who have never driven a foreign car before, have never driven an old car, or have only driven normal cars. Although it is well-made, it is still a modified car, so you need to manage the oil carefully and also need regular inspections and maintenance. You can't just have it inspected and maintained at a shop when it's time for inspection like you can with a normal car. Also, because it is significantly more powerful than normal, you need to catch the information the car is sending out while driving. Furthermore, the already low ride height has been lowered even further, so there are more situations where you need to be careful about road conditions such as bumps. You don't need to be too nervous about it, but you still need to be a little careful when driving. But if you understand both the fun and inconvenience of this type of car, I think this vehicle is extremely cost-effective. It's a tuned car with not only a supercharger, but also the suspension, brakes, and interior, but the body is loose for its age, and frankly, I don't think it can beat a normal C7 Corvette in terms of speed alone. Even in comparison with the C6, it seems like it could beat the LS2, but it's a good match with the LS3, and it's probably going to lose to the Z06. That's about it? But it's really fun to drive. And that's why this fun Corvette costs 1.6 million yen. It's cheaper than used light cars like the S660 and Copen, let alone the Hachiroku or Roadster (laughs). Even if I'm being biased, I think it's a bit rare to find a sports car with such a high cost performance! ◼️Interview cooperation: 6 DEGREES Address: 5-5-27 Nishiishikiricho, Higashiosaka City, Osaka Prefecture TEL: 072-984-6651 http://www.6degrees.co.jp ◾️American Car World ・Website: https://amesha-world.com ・Facebook:   / ameshaworld..  . ・Instagram:   / amesha_world   ・Twitter:   / amesha_world   ◾️Photography & editing: Tanaka Toru #ChevroletCorvette #C5Corvette #AmericanCar #TuningCar #6Degrees #Supercharger
