Overview

The 2018 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Coupe is a midsize coupe offered in 3 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $65,495. For that price, it mainly competes with the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 Coupe, the BMW M4 Coupe, and the Cadillac ATS-V Coupe. Between 3 trims, the Corvette Grand Sport offers a single powertrain. It is a 6.2L V8 making 460 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 7-speed manual and an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Corvette Grand Sport reaches 60 MPH from zero in 3.6 seconds and can manage a combined fuel economy of 16 MPG. While we're on the topic of choices, the 10 striking colors the Corvette Grand Sport comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

Not much difference between its trim levels but we'd recommend the $69,950 GrandSport with 2LT trim level as it adds some of the features available in Corvette Z06 such as an upgraded cooling system, wider fenders and tires, adaptive dampers, upgraded suspension components, and bigger brakes.
