GM makes the Corvette. They keep the production numbers down and do not sell it at a very high premium. The peace loving Europeans do not like it. It kicks butt to the other Le Mans type cars. It is American and therefore bad to them.
The Corvette is the finest freeway flyer in production today. Of course, non-production cars can go quicker than mine, a legal car on the freeways of Southern California. It has taken General Motors six years to beat a twentieth century machine. I am still driving that old last millennium thingamabob, my Maranello 550.
It has eaten my Maranello, which I do not like. It also consumes the Saleen, Aston Martin, Viper, and anything else in the way.
The German Porsche cannot handle it. Years ago, having yelled foul regarding the American V-8s, it demanded and got its own class behind the big boys. Drive a Porsche and get taken by an American Detroit Iron V-8. Deutsche are good at engineering but have no class nor style.
If Corvette ever had a V-12, I would buy it. I would not get rid of the 550 but think about a V-12 Corvette. Could any production car even come close? No, it would not.
Formula One now has a V-8. I wonder what would happen if Chevrolet said, "We want to get back into Formula One Racing?"
Bonzi!!!
