Corvette: Not Just America’s Sports Car
Louisville Courier Journal – October 9
 “Chevrolet has long called the Corvette “America’s Sports Car,” but that doesn’t satisfy State Representative C. B. Embry of Kentucky. He wants the Corvette named the state’s “official sports car.” After all, they build them in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Rep. Embry has introduced legislation before the General Assembly in Kentucky to make that proposal a reality. Of course, it’s a touchy topic. Not only does GM make the Corvette in Kentucky, but Ford also makes Explorers and Super Duty pick up trucks in the state. And Toyota builds Camrys there, too. Embry responds that he’s not trying to make Corvette the state car, merely the state sports car. Embry is enjoying himself with his proposal, and he has a point that other legislator should perhaps follow: “Everything we do is not a big earthshaking thing like healthcare or pensions. It is nice to slide in a fun thing from time to time.”
