    Default How about a Corvette?

    We'll probably have to add quite a bit to this section of the website.

    How many corvette lovers out there?

    The new vette looks AWESOME!

    Some people call me the space cowboy ... some people don't.

    Talking What a turn on, but......

    God, I love the 07 Corvette. It has to be the best yet. But, before I spent $60 - $70k+ on an 07 Corvette, I'd rather go for something like this 62 Corvette Convertible. While it won't compete at the same level, I think the number of smiles per mile are about the same and the value wouldn't sink with every mile on the odometer.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m just old school.

    Had a 76 Stingray, the last of the Stingrays. Was nothing but a ticket machine. I could be doing 3 MPH over the speed limit and got a ticket for it.

    They always were and always be the best of the best as far as I am concerned. The cutting edge of the muscle cars, no matter what year.

    1967 L71 Convertible in Silver, for me this is the ultimate Corvette, that would be the 427 with 435hp.
    I have driven a 1994 ZR1, that was fun!!!!!

    I would have to agree to buy one of the older one's instead, they don't make them like they used too. I don't consider myself a Corvette fan, but I do like the 57'-62 convertibles! Barrett Jackson is full of all of GM's museum and experimental cars for sale, what a shame that they are selling off pieces of their history!

    Default Vettes In Europe

    I had a 2002 C5 Corvette Coupe in Germany and Italy. Not many Americans really understands how great a car the Corvette is until you put them up against the so-called best cars in the world from Germany and Italy. I admit I had quite a few bolt ons and was probably making about 450Hp at the end of my time in Europe, but I beat some fairly awesome cars including many Porsches, Euro spec Vipers, Mercedes AMGs, plenty of BMWs including M3s, several Ferraris, Jags etc. etc. on road courses and the autobahn. I am very proud of the American Icon Corvette. Wish I had a ZR1 to take over!!! I had my Vette at Nurburgring for 4 laps...what a trip that was!!!
