Corvettes have a long history, but at the end of the day, it's still a Chevrolet. Which is like being a Kia. Saying you drive a Chevy isn't exactly a mark of honor. The performance is there, especially as of late, but when you sit in one, you can, well, feel the family ties with the rest of the Chevrolet lineup.

But 600+ horsepower is nothing to laugh at, that's for sure. There's a mid-engined Korean car in final development, prototypes running around. Their top model pushes 600bhp with twin turbos. It's no doubt quick. Haven't seen the interior though - I wonder if they borrowed Hyundai bits for that as they borrowed the Hyundai V6 drivetrain?
