1998 Corvette Indy Pace Car Replica
1998 not only marked the 45th birthday for the great American icon that is the Corvette, but it also meant another year that the Corvette would be chosen to pace the field at the Indianapolis 500. This would be the fourth time that the Corvette would earn such an honor and that meant once again the good folks at GM would be putting together a pace car replica as a limited edition and what they produced has become one of the most sought after Corvettes that there is.
The 1998 Corvette pace car replica was almost identical to the actual pace car that leads the field on race day at the 500. In fact the only differences with the replica and the real thing was the strobe lights, the roll bar, and the on board fire extinguishing system that the real pace car had and the replica didn't.
Besides those small differences the replica and the actual pace cars were identical. This was a claim that none of the other previous replicas could make. Add to that the fact that there were only 1,158 in total that were built (only the 1995 pace car replica was less with 527) and you begin to realize why this Corvette pace car replica is so special.
The limited edition Corvette was decked out to the nines with yellow wheels, a beautiful yellow and black interior, and it sported a wild flag logo design all over. These were the main features that were responsible for adding an extra $2,800 to the price tag of the 1998 ragtop Corvette that was already basing at $44,900. However with the limited number that would end up being produced it was well worth the extra few grand.
The paint was made up of a brilliant combination of blue and purple and was officially called "Radar Blue." As would be assumed it was the only color available for the replica (hence the word replica).
As you would expect, the replica pace cars would share the same features performance wise as the stock Corvette convertibles did. That meant an all aluminum LS1 V-8 engine to power the replica pace car with 345 horsepower and a six speed transmission that was made available for the year. Also featured for the year were anti-lock brakes and a handling stability system which would keep most Vette owners out of trouble in the turns.
The replica pace car featured plenty of get up and goes as well. The replica ragtop Corvette was capable of doing 0 miles per hour to 60 miles per hour in around five seconds making it one fast and good looking vehicle.
While the Corvette would go on to pace the field at the Indianapolis many times more and will likely do so moving forward, there is little doubt that the 1998 Corvette pace car replica will hold a special place in the hearts of all who belong to the Corvette Nation. Others may come and go, but this Vette will always remain special.

About how many miles will an 87 corvette last?
I've always really wanted a corvette, but I'm not made of money. I'm considering trading my car for this other guy's vette, but it has 180,000 miles on it. My car only has 115K and it's a Honda, so it wouldn't surprise me if my car makes it to 250K miles. The corvette is an 87 Automatic. Obviously no one can give me a definitive answer, but I'm just looking for approximately, how long do you think it will last?
the body will last forever on that car as it's fiberglass and with 180,000 miles on the engine I would be afraid of that engine and transmission, if you get the car for a good price you could have the engine rebuilt or put another engine in it, then again if the car was taken care of the engine could run for another few years but don't be surprised if it uses some oil.
