If any here can swing buying this, check out the Corvette for 2025

Notice the Corvette representative is not a young firebrand. He drives one of these. Warning, you can top 215 mph and do so mighty fast. Dig out your bank account you might empty it.

Who drives the Corvette? ?Any of them?

Useless to have a car that can go that fast with no Autobahn.

I once worked at Oakland, CA for a Chevrolet acceptance shipping company. We were hired to drive those cars. Seldom would a Corvette show up and I was always hot to drive those. We drove to parking places and also drove them to be shipped by Rail downtown Oakland, CA. We would convoy to ship by Rail, meaning the boss drove a panel to pick we drivers up after we parked the cars at the rail yards. When I drove the corvettes, I drove them pretty fast but not so I got tickets. No cop ever stopped me. God, I was young then and loved fast cars. I worked then for Pacific Motor Trucking. A lot of the cars were loaded onto trucks in our yard at the plant and only some drivers got to drive cars onto the trucks. I was not one of those.

Why drive it at super high speeds all the time? But yes that is a good point.

A guy that lives down the street from me has a 2024 red corvette... he is 5 homes away from me and there are green areas and forest between each home but when he starts his car dishes in my kitchen rattle... lol
he let me drive it and it actually made me a little afraid to drive too fast... but I did take it up to 90 and it still had a gear or two to go...

Why? If Trump taught us anything it's that rules don't apply to rich white men. So feel free to go as fast as you want on any road you want. Rules are made to be broken.

Or are we not really as free as we think in America?

^^ Oh Lord….they just had to turn this into a Trump thing somehow.


You people are nuts.

The ability to accelerate up to 80 very quickly is super useful on the freeway. Its also fun as fuck.

We all your USMB pay rate is peanuts compared to what the DNC pays you RW.

The ZR-1 5.5-liter LT7 twin-turbocharged DOHC V8...

I could afford it, but it goes against my DNA to spend $200K on a depreciating asset.

 

[Natural Citizen]

I'd rather have a C3 honestly.

I tend to drive the speed limit anyway.

And I prefer the C3's curves.

They can't allow any subject to get past them without making it a smear of President Trump.

It's only roughly $70k if you buy the stripped down model. I guess closer to $90k fully loaded. And I would think many people would could afford a Corvette would buy one that wasn't fully loaded. But if you buy the electric one expect to pay well over $100k

I still prefer the lines of the 1972.

It wont actually depreciate. If you dont put a million miles on it, it will be worth a lot of money someday. Most cars depreciate, but not high end sports cars. They are often one of the best investments you can make.
