Corvette for the Win

After all of these weeks thus far, I'm finally going to write about my favorite sports car as of late.  The Chevrolet Corvette is a lean, mean, beast mode machine ready to win street light races to Indy 500 races.  One of its biggest American sports car rivals is the Camaro, which we previously talked about.  But in my opinion, the Corvette is going to kick the Camaro’s butt over the next couple years.  But in order to prove my point, let's talk about the Corvette and its history.

In 1950, the owners of the Chevrolet Motor company figured they had a good line of cars but we're missing something.  A sports car is something they thought would help them make them even more money, along with making them more of a diverse car company.  So once they thought of that, Chevrolet created the Corvette in 1953, and they were well set as a successful car company.

On to the future models of the Chevrolet Corvette.  They came out with two models in the 2016 line.  The first model is the Corvette Stingray.  I love this model because an orange and black stingray drives around Midland all the time, and it is a sweet looking car.  The next model is the Corvette Z06, one of the most beautiful cars in the world now.  The cost is somewhere around $79,000.  The car kept the slick, skinny but muscular build, and got rid of the circle lights in the rear.  They replaced those lights with a sweet new design that you will see in the pictures below along with some specs that I got from Chevrolet’s website:






-Engine-6.2L Supercharged V8 DI
-0-60 mph-3 seconds
-Horsepower-650 hp
-Height-48.6 in.
-Length-177.90 in.
-Maximum RPM-6400 rpm

The Corvette that we looked at today.. Wow, I find myself speechless.  The car is an American made great car.  One of the most impressive features is the 650 horsepower, which beats the Camaro by 105 hp.  The car goes faster than the Camaro, going from 0-60 mph much faster.  In the long run, what else do you need to know other than that to convince you to buy a Corvette instead?  Exactly, which is why I would suggest this car right away over almost any other car I have done on this blog already.  Bold move, I know, but I definitely believe this car is worth your time and investment.
