The Grand Sport nameplate holds a revered place in Corvette history, first appearing in 1963 on five purpose-built, lightweight racers designed by Zora Arkus-Duntov to challenge the Shelby Cobra. While the original program was short-lived, the spirit of enhanced performance for the street was revived in the C4 generation and again for the C6. The C6 Grand Sport, introduced in 2010, effectively bridged the gap between the standard Corvette and the mighty Z06, offering wider bodywork, a dry-sump lubrication system for manual transmission cars, revised suspension tuning, and upgraded brakes derived from the Z06, all while retaining the removable roof panel and the venerable LS3 engine. This 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport, with 70,465 miles on the odometer, takes that factory performance envelope and pushes it even further. Under the hood, its 6.2L Gas V8 has been enhanced with a supercharger, promising a significant boost in power output over the already potent 430 horsepower of the stock LS3. Mated to a proper manual transmission, this hatchback Grand Sport offers an engaging, visceral driving experience that connects the driver directly to its formidable power. For the enthusiast seeking a C6 Grand Sport with an extra dose of adrenaline, this supercharged example presents an compelling proposition.
