New Corvette



"this 650-horsepower Vette is packed with power and perks, and has the chops to keep up with and even beat McLarens, Lamborghinis and Ferraris, it ranks among the best values in production cars on the market today."

Calling Beamon... No word on the sound system options, as yet.

The 1959-1962's are my favorites.

I don't care for any of them after the Stingray came out in 63.

Anybody remember "Route 66"?

It has a sort of Veloster look to it.

I see a lot of those on the road.
