There is a version of this car in every other colour. Nobody has ever wanted one.

The convertible C8 is the same mid-engined 6.2-litre V8 with a hardtop that disappears into the deck behind your head — 495 horsepower, sixty in under three seconds, and Torch Red, which is what people mean when they say Corvette.

6.2L V8 · RWD

Red Chevrolet Corvette Convertible from above and behind with the roof stowed — 01Roof in the deck, the buttresses gone, and a rear that is mostly vent. There is a V8 under the glass between them.

The hardtop is the clever part. It is not fabric, it does not spoil the roofline, and it stows itself in about sixteen seconds without eating the luggage space — because the luggage space is under the bonnet, where the engine used to be, and there is a second one behind the engine that survives the roof going down.

What you get for it is the reason people rent convertibles in Los Angeles and nowhere else. A naturally aspirated pushrod V8 a foot behind your shoulders, no roof between it and the canyon walls, and three hundred and fifty dollars a day.

Every other colour exists.
Nobody has ever wanted one.

Queries

Is the Corvette Convertible available to rent in Los Angeles?

Yes — this is the convertible, and it is a different car to book from the coupé: the hardtop folds into the deck at the touch of a button, and it will do it while you are moving at city speed.

How much does it cost to rent a Corvette Convertible in Los Angeles?

The red Corvette Convertible is $349 a day. Five days is priced as a block rather than as five separate days, and twenty-one as another; the quote takes whichever combination is cheaper for your dates, and neither has to be asked for. Delivery to our Beverly Hills partner hotels is complimentary.

How does the roof work?

It is a hardtop that folds itself into the deck in about sixteen seconds, and it will do it at city speed. The boot under the bonnet stays yours either way.

Can I see the dates before I call?

Yes — the diary on this page is the live fleet calendar. If a date is open there, it is open.
