What type of Corvette was this?

It was a C5, with a "raised" stock looking hood and a raised emblem of "LS1" as part of the rear bumper. It looked like it had 2000 rims, the skinny five stars. I noticed no Z06 emblems or the rear plastic looking valances behind the doors. It was dark Maron in color?

Sounds like it had a custom cowl hood on it. It was probably something someone did themselves.

You could be refering to a Lingenfelter...their Vette looks just like you described.

After researching the color, it looks to be the 50th Anni. model. That's the only type Corvette, for that color. It comes with the exact same hood.

ehh, kinda. More like a purplish red. Just like the 50th paint scheme. Only came in one color, that one.
