This Day In History: The first Chevrolet Corvette rolls off the assembly line in Flint, Michigan on this day in 1953. The cost of that Vette was about $3500.00 in 1953, In 2006 that same 1953 model sold for $1,100,000.00 in 2006. The first production C8 Corvette went for an impressive $3 million at Barrett Jackson’s 2020 Scottsdale Auction, and the 2020 Chevy Corvette Coupe runs for $103,615. While the Corvette is a fan favorite, the heavy price tag keeps it from being one of the top 5 selling Chevy models of all time. Those honors go to the Silverado, Camaro, Cavalier, Impala and the Caprice.
