Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- Ultrahigh performance, daily-driver livability, bargain sticker price.
Cons
- Some low-grade interior trim, can't get the Z06 as a coupe or convertible.
What’s new
Most notable for 2003 is the 50th Anniversary package available on coupe and convertible models. The commemorative package includes Anniversary red exterior paint, a unique shale interior color, champagne-colored wheels and "50th Anniversary" exterior badging with matching embroidery on the headrests and floor mats. Also included in the Anniversary package (or as a stand-alone option on coupes and convertibles) is an all-new Magnetic Ride Control system that provides instantaneous shock adjustment for optimum ride quality and handling. All models also get additional standard equipment that includes sport seats, a power passenger seat, foglamps, dual-zone auto climate control and a parcel net and luggage shade on coupe models.
Edmunds says
We expected a little more for a 50th anniversary model, but considering how good the Corvette is anyway, we can forgive the paint and badges job -- barely.

2003 Corvette Convertible
Gary M Ciborowski, 06/25/2008
2003 Chevrolet Corvette 2dr Convertible (5.7L 8cyl 4A)
Car is surprisingly comfortable to drive having come a long way from the Corvettes of the 70s and 80s. Fit and finish on my car, purchased used, is superb. Panel spacing is uniform from fender to hood to door. Doors close with solid definition. Manual top folds easily and is easy to operate without assistance. So far, rattle free. The leather seats fit me very well: the seat is just the … right length and width. The seatback supports the entire length of my back with no hard spots. Power adjustments include lumbar support and this 50th Anniversary Edition has the memory option, so once you set the seat, wheel and radio preferences, they all return once you start the car.

Exceeded all expectations

2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2dr Coupe (5.7L 8cyl 6M)
Having never owned a corvette before, I
expected all of the stereotypes to be
true, such as a cramped interior, lousy
build quality and so forth. None of
these having proven to be true. The
performance is truly exceptional, it is
easy to drive long distances, and
nothing has broken or begun to rattle,
even with trips to the drag strip and a
few road courses. In fact, … I
frequently choose this over my mercedes
sl to drive to work, which surprised
even me.

50th Anniversary Vet
CherryO, 09/30/2007
2003 Chevrolet Corvette 2dr Coupe (5.7L 8cyl 4A)
Fabulous sports car. Seldom a day goes by without someone stopping me to comment on it. However there are days I would like to just get in my car and run to the convenience store without make-up or my hair done. This car draws so much attention that you can't do that.. This is not my weekend car. I drive it to work daily. People I have never met before say "How's the vet"? It's so fast, … roomy and the heads up display is nice. The warning lights for tire pressure, fuel and low washer fluid are a definite plus. We test drove nearly every sports car on the market, including Mercedes. My husband is very "healthy". The 2003 Vet is the only car that my husband could sit in comfortably.

50th Anniversary Corvette
Bob Hatfield, 10/28/2005
2003 Chevrolet Corvette 2dr Coupe (5.7L 8cyl 4A)
Impeccable performance and sterling appearance. The anniversary red paint projects a dazzling sparkle when in the sunlight and nicely augmented by the champaigne coloured wheels.

Should I lease or buy a 2003 Chevrolet Corvette?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
