Can't argue with the PCH but I'm partial to 101, Brookings to Astoria in Oregon. Oh, and Laguna Seca would be a blast too (though technically not a highway).

Vette(s): 1972 T-Top
       Biff mentioned Mulholland drive in L.A. I used to drive that everyday when I lived in the Hollywood Hills. The stretch from Laurel Canyon to Coldwater Canyon is the absolute best. It used to be very popular for canyon racers for years until a crackdown by the LAPD. There is a turn with many old wrecks at the bottom....at least there used to be. Haven't lived up there in 20 years

Vette(s): 2004 Commemorative Edition Coupe, Auto w/HUD. 13K miles in 2015. Sold 1982 Red Coupe
Although I have never been there, and that is a good reason for picking it, I would love to drive my Vette through the countryside of New Zealand.
 
On a more realistic note, I have driven PCH, in a van with the family. It would be a blast in my Vette. I just might have to extend my trip to Carson City.Wink

Vette(s): My 1974 Vette sold last August 2014. I am still willing to show up to events and local gatherings if anything happening No new vette yet.
I would love to take the Vette and bring it to Colorado. i have been there before and i have got friends there as well.  i go hiking and camping alot and i like doing it up there. tons of winding roads and beautiful scenery and the roads gone on forever and around the mountains. great sites and views. definitely a fun time doing that.

Well, it's 1 degree here with about a foot of snow on the ground. Not vette weather yet!

I'd like to make the drive from LA to Seattle, along the coast as much as possible. Been to Portland and Seattle, but have never been north of LA in Çalifornia. I think that would be a cool drive.

If Europe is the spot, it would have to be the BMW test track Nordschleife.   (The shorter version of the track is called Nurburging.) You can bring your own car to drive. That would be fun!
