When speaking classics it is tough to beat good ol' US muscle for both power and aggressive looks. While the Corvette of this era was not the supercar it has evolved into today it is still the quintessential American classic. Bright color, timeless shape, droptop, just enough chrome...what more do you need? Take the Yellow Jacket for a spin and enjoy the ride; it can handle the twists and turns as well as it handles the concourse.
