Corvettes from the C5 generation have been making a resurgence as enthusiasts recognize the great performance values that these cars offer. Not only that, but it was also the generation that offered several different niche colors including one of our favorites, Medium Purple Metallic.
Maybe it represents the most logical progression of the “just for fun” vehicle, maybe we’re witnessing traditional Go-Fast companies act on their desire for a slice of the Raptor/TRX market’s sizable profit margins, or perhaps we’re just seeing a natural response to the aging state of the developed world’s infrastructure and the popularity of crossovers, SUVs, and an international zombie apocalypse fetish, but the age of the factory-lifted offroad-focused sports car is officially upon us.

That’s where this auto reviewer caught up with the Cacti Green 2024 E-Ray Convertible.
Since the start of the pandemic in early 2020, there have been a number of ongoing supply chain constraints and other bottlenecks that have hampered the ability for production facilities like the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green to return back to levels of production prior to COVID.
