Confessions of a Corvette guy

Modern models' purposeful elegance and rocket-like power make allure of the 'Vette hard to deny

There comes a point in any not-so-young man's life when he must ask: Am I a Corvette guy?

Over their lifetimes, many car lovers will dabble with rocket-like Japanese tuners, pricey European imports and old-school American muscle. But as horsepower and prestige increase, so do the prices of those sleek, sexy playthings.

At some point, speed demons will realize that the most sports car bang for buck is a Chevy Corvette.

I first realized I was a Corvette guy in 1991. Late coming to the party. But, I hear better late than never!

Anyone else?

I first realized I was a Corvette guy at around age 7-8, building model cars. I think it was a black 1967 with that red stinger hood. :confused

For me it was doing "new car prep" at a Chevy store in NJ in the very early '70s.
