Let's hope the owner actually drives it.

When the first2020 Corvette Stingrayrolled off the production line, Chevrolet could never have anticipated a global pandemic would turn it into a future collector's car. With General Motors forced to close down the Bowling Green plant, production of the 2020 Corvette Stingray wasseverely cutback.

In an unusual move, Chevroletextended 2020 model-year productionof the Corvette until the end of the year, enabling the automaker to meet its original production target of over 20,000 units. But now the order books are closed ready for the 2021 model to start production. Traditionally, first and last Corvettes from a model year are highly sought after by collectors, and the 2020 Corvette is no exception.

The first example finished in black was sold to Chevy dealer and NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick for astaggering $3 millionat a charity auction - and he doesn't even plan to drive it.

According to Corvette Blogger, the final 2020 Corvette Stingray rolling off the production line will be a convertible model finished in Sebring Orange with the VIN number #19456. Surprisingly, however, it won't be getting a special send-off. Rather than selling it at a charity auction or consigning it to theNational Corvette Museum, it was sold to a customer at a New York dealership.

Let's hope the owner of the last-ever 2020 Corvette actually drives it, unlike Hendrick who plans to keep VIN #1 in storage on display with the other 120 Corvettes in his collection.

According to an inside source, Chevrolet simply didn't have enough time to do something special to commemorate the final 2020 Corvette and wanted to prioritize customer deliveries. At least this will still be a rare example of the mid-engine sports car.Statistics shared by the National Corvette Museumrevealed that only 17.6 percent of buyers opted for the convertible version. Sebring Orange was also one of the least popular color options, selected by only 6.8-percent of customers.
