Remember back in 1975 when Chevy tried to tell us they wouldn't be producing Corvette convertibles anymore? Well, it came back in 1986.
All 1986 Chevrolet Corvette convertibles were Indianapolis Pace Car Replicas and came with a decal package which could be affixed by the dealer. Of 35,109 Corvettes sold in 1986, 7,315 were these pace car convertibles.
Anti-lock brakes, advanced lighting, and a key code anti-theft system were made standard in the 1986 model year. The engine remained the same as in 1985, a 5.7-liter L98 rated at 230 horsepower. The 4+3 manual transmission was still available.
What owners say
"The 1986 Chevrolet Corvette is generally loved by its owners for its impressive performance and striking looks. Many drivers appreciate its excellent handling and acceleration, which make it a fun ride. The unique design still turns heads, and overall, it maintains a strong presence on the road. However, some owners have noted issues with the interior quality, such as aging materials and noise levels, which can detract from the driving experience. Despite these downsides, most owners feel positively about their experience with this classic car."
Awesome car. Looks sleek and sounds great with any aftermarket exhaust system. Just as fast as most modern sports cars that cost about 5 times the price.
February 9, 2008My first Corvette, and still in the family. Since this photo was taken my sister's taken ownership of it as a college ride, and the entire exterior and my Z06 rims have all been painted black. It truly looks wicked.
January 2, 2008This Vette runs very strong and still looks great among many of today's newer sport cars. This one is for the most part, a stock vehicle; meaning no real engine modifications. Only an air-intake vortex power spacer for a few more ponies and efficiency, as well as tuned with performance products. The original front bumper was professionally OEM upgraded to accommodate newer matching Greenwood fascia kit, which turned out to be a huge improvement. Overall, these cars are known as a 'rolling power-house' for their power-to-weight ratio straight from the factory.

March 3, 2015Bought for autox & track events as well as cruising around town. After some modifications, the car met or exceeded my expectations. Pretty good technology & features for a 29 year old car. Good motor & everything held up well to all driving conditions.
May 5, 2015Look great for the year and handles great on the road. I have seen some that look good but not head turners like mine. I love to go on long rides with it on good days. It feels almost like riding on my motorcycle.
July 28, 2013This is one of a kind. It's looks like it's racing while sitting still. Eyes turn when this beauty passes by. The power is refreshing and impressive. Smooth on the Interstate and struts in the City. This red beauty need do nothing to "show off".
April 14, 2012like the handling,hard to believe 230hp pretty much no complaints one of my favorite cars to drive,like to take the top off and go driving ,highway still getting about 22+ miles to the gallon. thats about it,ok there 40 words .
