Default Ever See or Hear of a 1989 Corvette Stingray RX?

Never heard of one. I was wondering if it was some dealer limited offering or aftermarket limited run.


http://orlando.craigslist.org/cto/2822283477.html

I do not answer texts____I do not answer texts____I do not answer texts____Folks you will probably not see another one like it as its 1 of 150 made. This is a limited production 1989 Corvette Stingray RX. Still has the original paint which is like it came off the showroom floor. Factory Tweed power Seats, Carbon Fiber interior, Racing Brakes, Edlebrook engine package and one kick butt sound system. REAL dual flowmaster side exhaust. Has less than 60,000 Original pampered ,non-smoker miles. $15,000 OBO. Folks she needs a new home as I need the space. I will entertain good offers to the right home. For more pics use your mouse and click on this link:

No such thing ever left Bowling Green.
That car has "aftermarket" wrote all over it.

Nice looking car though, but I just hate when people try to convince others that "their car" is that one of kind rare find.

Only concept cars have carried the stingray name after 1976. Someone customized a regular 89 and made up a name for it.

It is worth this much more than a regular 89:

Full of crap to the hilt, no such car made EVER.

That car in fact used to belong to a member here, pretty sure.

Send him this link.

He doesnt sound misinformed at all more like a cheap scam period.

Comes with the ultra rare C5 logo on the dash.
And notice the carbon fiber look alike dash, that didn't exist in '86.



Someone in another thread was asking about side pipes.
These look like the "Power Effects" brand?

The C5 Logo emblem was a prototype emblem. WAYYYYY ahead of its time!!!
