I love the look of the new corvette!!

To me, an American sports car needs to be a statement driving down the road. It needs to look over the top and completely tasteless. My brother has a lime green BOSS and i like to say hes driving a big green dick down the road. In a way, thats whats fun about it. Its all hey look at me!

At the same time,, its not even on my radar. I wouldn't ever consider one for a multitude of reasons. I purchased the M because it was understated and refined while being somewhat of an anachronism in the way that it drives in such a connected manner that you just dont get anymore.

American cars should be loud and boisterous, a car that lives for the raw numbers. I think this car achieves that.

The biggest problem for me is this: In Texas, you cant go more than a mile without seeing a corvette. Eventually that will be the outcome for this model, and when that happens it will shift from loud and boisterous to commonplace and tacky. That is the problem with all American cars, for me at least.
