2012 Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette Celebrates Racing Heritage.
Chevrolet, founded racing pioneer Louis Chevrolet 100 years ago, celebrates its performance heritage with the 2012 Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette, which features a sleek black color scheme, unique design elements and Corvette's trademark sports car technology.
The 2012 Centennial Edition package will be available on all Corvette models including Grand Sport, Z06 and ZR1 starting this summer.
The Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette expresses racing heritage, but does so with a sleek, modern, even sinister-looking appearance.
The Centennial Edition package comes exclusively in Carbon Flash Metallic, with satin-black graphics and unique Centennial Satin Black wheels and red brake calipers. The wheels are constructed of lightweight cast-spun aluminum and include a thin red outline around the perimeter of its surface on the Z06.
The wheels are specific to the respective Corvette models, including 18-inch/19-inch for Coupe, Convertible and Grand Sport; and 19-inch/20-inch for Z06 and ZR1.
Magnetic Selective Ride Control, the world's fastest-reacting suspension and a technology advance initiated by Corvette, is included on all Chevrolet Centennial Edition Corvette models.
The Centennial Edition also features special badges that signify Chevrolet's racing history. A graphic logo featuring an iconic image of Louis Chevrolet appears on the B-pillars, the center caps of the wheels, and the center of the steering wheel. The seat headrests also carry an embossed centennial logo.
Aficionados will note one other small detail: The historic crossed flags badge contains a small adaptation, with "100" in place of the traditional fleur-de-lis symbol, only for the Centennial Edition.
Nice original look with the dull/flat black exterior. It's only been done about 2000 times by everyone else.

Looks great, especially with the sweet wheels with a touch of red; it adds a burst of vibrant color. This Corvette looks like it will burn up the roads!

The Centennial Chevrolet Corvette doesn't just include that much needed performance and style. It also has it legacy to carry out with and the rich history it contains. It would be honorable to own one of these.
