Check out this cool ride:

I've only seen one of these on the road and one at the Corvette Museum in Kentucky. Those were the coolest vettes ever!

Has anyone seen the new ones? They look so stealthy and futuristic.
Also, has anyone been to the assembely plant in Bowling Green?

Meh. Corvettes are great when bikini-clad women are next to them. Alone however, they suck. Buy a Ford Mustang instead.

Yes, Mustangs are just as good, in my own opinion...

I drove one during Driver's Ed. You can definately feel its power. The closest thing I've come to a Mustang since then would be an '04 Impala (the new ones look sweet :) )

The new Mustangs are ok. The new Impala SS looks so futuristic!

I go to the Auto Show In Motion everytime they have it near here. They let you drive various cars including the Corvette and Hummer on closed courses.

It's a cool experience since they let you floor the Corvette...very powerful car, and really great handling.

For those of you who want more information on the Auto Show In Motion go to: http://autoshowinmotion.com

They have it Arlington Race Track (in the parking lot)...usually once a year. This year they had it in April and the first weekend of October though.

You need to be registered in order to attend, they usually send invites in the mail when they have one around here.
