While the world waits with bated breath for the midengine Corvette, Chevrolet still has some special editions up its sleeve for the current Corvette C7 model.

Chevrolet on Friday unveiled the Corvette Drivers Series special edition. Available in four distinct styles, these appearance packages build upon the already-excellent Corvette Grand Sport trim, which blends the handling prowess of the Z06 with the 460-horsepower base V8 for something a bit more approachable.

Each model carries the name of a specific Corvette Racing driver and a unique style. Below is a quick breakdown of the styles:

No matter the edition, all cars get a plaque inside specific to whichever driver's car is chosen. There's also some unique interior trim, including -- on 3LT models only -- carbon fiber bits. 1LT and 2LT buyers will have to do without that little extra bit of flash.

The Corvette Drivers Series cars go on sale in the spring. 1LT and 2LT versions will add $4,995 to the car's bottom line, while 3LT models will command an extra $5,995. For context, a base Grand Sport 1LT starts at $65,900, while the 3LT commands $76,740.

Corvette Grand Sport: It's the just-right porridge of Corvettes.
