Why Corvette's Are Awesome

Overall corvettes have been an amazing sports car to buy. With the exception of the 1980's it has been a great consumer car. It all started with the first generation C1 in 1953. The first corvettes only came stock with a L6 and later in 1955 with v8 engines. When I think of classic cars the one car that always comes to mind is the 1958 Corvette. Its such a good looking car! Then came the sting ray in the 60's which had great looks as well as performance. Corvette was Americas "pride and joy" in the early 60's. The 60's was the peak of corvette in my eyes. Even throughout the years to come Corvette managed to still kept its looks and somewhat performance up until now. I am very disappointed to see what Corvette is releasing for 2013. But then, I go back and look at the beautiful cars they made back in the day when American cars had style.

  1. Good Post Trevor I defiantly agree that corvettes have been a great overall car through the entire time its been made and that the 60's had some of the best corvettes ever ,but I don't think that the new corvette is that bad I think they can make it into a good car.

  2. Trevor, you actually posted about a car worth talking about. The corvette is a great looking car, and is also the epitome of American Muscle cars. The Corvette displays dominance in straight-line speed and because of that, it is one of the most popular cars. That, I think, is the corvette's one drawback. You see them everywhere, and they are almost all the same. There is no uniqueness of this car, and that is what I think it is missing. But overall, a great car.
