The 2005 Corvette 1SB Preferred Equipment Group was a mid-tier option package that added features like a power-telescopic steering column, memory package, heated seats, and a premium Bose audio system with a 6-disc CD changer to the base 1SA package. The 1SB package was available for both coupe and convertible models and was a prerequisite for optional features like the Heads-Up Display, Navigation system, and HomeLink garage door opener.
The F55 Magnetic Selective Ride Control was a desirable, premium option for the 2005 C6 Corvette, providing real-time adaptive damping for a superior ride and handling balance. You can identify if a 2005 C6 has Mag Ride by the presence of a small, round toggle switch on the panel in front of the center console door.
What it is & How to spot it
- Adaptive Suspension:
- Mag Ride uses shocks with a magnetic fluid whose viscosity can be changed thousands of times per second to adjust damping at each corner independently.
- The system is controlled by a small toggle switch located on the console panel, between the seats, in front of the center console door.
- If you see the option code "F55" on the vehicle's original options sticker (often found in the glove compartment), it confirms the Mag Ride option.
Key Features & Benefits
- Smoother, More Stable Ride:
- The real-time adjustments keep the tires in contact with the road, providing a smoother, more stable ride, especially on uneven surfaces.
- In addition to comfort, Mag Ride enhances performance by reducing body roll during turns and providing better stability during hard acceleration and braking.
- On cars equipped with a drive mode selector (Tour, Sport, Track), this feature allows for adjustment of the suspension's characteristics to suit different driving conditions.
Why it Matters for 2005 Models
- Mag Ride was the premium suspension package for the 2005 model, representing a significant upgrade over standard shocks.
- Resale Value:
- Corvettes equipped with Mag Ride tend to have better resale value, making them a desirable feature for potential buyers.
