GM has announced plans to auction first retail production model of the 2014 Corvette Stingray – with the Vehicle Identification Number ending in 0001 – at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale collector car auction this weekend. The proceeds from the auction will benefit the College for Creative Studies in Detroit.
“The new Stingray features a modern, dramatic design that will inspire a new generation of Corvette enthusiasts,” said Ed Welburn, GM vice president of global design. “With the proceeds of the new Stingray going to the CCS, the new Corvette will also help cultivate the next generation of designers who may work on modern, dramatic Chevrolets in the future. In fact more than 170 CCS alumni already work in the GM Design studios.”
Along with the 2014 Corvette Stingray, four other unique Chevys will cross the block at Barrett-Jackson’s sale, including: General Motors’ CEO Dan Akerson’s 1958 Corvette, 2012 COPO Camaro convertible, Guy Fieri’s personalized 2013 Corvette 427 Convertible Collector Edition and a 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible.
