It’s long been known as “America’s sports car.” But as Chevrolet gets ready to roll out the latest version of the Corvette, that’s clearly no longer good enough for the General Motors division.

Warning: The surgeon general has declared that it is NOT unhealthy to smoke your competition AND I just discovered that my corvette is a hybred.  It burns gas and rubber!

Sounds great, Larry.  We're all waiting for January to see what the C7 looks like.  Hope its not too much like the C6 as all previous generations had distinctive looks.  Thanks for posting, Larry.

The article is great. Has anyone seen how much this thing will cost. Not that I will ever be able to have one but I just wonder what the price tag will be. Mom already said I bought my last vette. Sucks to be me!
