2003 50th Anniversary Edition Convertible Auction

If you own a low-mileage 50th Anniversary Edition C5, you’ll probably be happy with recent auction sales of this model. Over 11,600 were produced, so they’re not really a rare, low-volume item considering that they comprise almost one-third of all 2003 Corvettes sold. But interest in these Anniversary Red / Shale leather interior cars seems to be on the upswing.

This pristine 11,000 mile C5 sold last month for an even $30,000. It seems like sale prices for C5s have risen across the board, but maybe the combination of the convertible top and the 6-speed manual transmission were also a factor in this sale.
