Exciting news from General Motors! They\u2019ve just revealed a captivating Corvette concept at their brand-new advanced design studio in Royal Leamington Spa, England. This concept, while not destined for production, offers a glimpse into the future of Corvette design, showcasing GM\u2019s \u201cblank-page\u201d approach.<\/p>\n
Key highlights include sleek, aerodynamic lines, a striking \u201cApex Vision\u201d spine (a modern take on the \u201963 Sting Ray\u2019s split window), and a lightweight, 3D-printed structure. This design exploration hints at potential EV integration and a strong race-inspired aesthetic. The UK studio, staffed with top design talent, will play a crucial role in shaping future Corvette and Cadillac EV models for the European market. GM has also announced that there will be more Corvette concepts coming in 2025. Stay tuned for further updates!<\/p>\n

Russell\u2019s 1960<\/p>\n Hi. I\u2019m Russ Beyer from Scottsdale Arizona and I own a 1960 Corvette. It was purchased partially restored from an elderly gentleman who was retiring to Florida. With the help of our local NCRS members, we were able to achieve a Duntov, Bloomington Gold, and Triple Diamond awards. The biggest thrill was to be able to drive the Corvette on the Indianapolis 500 track. It was the crowning glory for all the hard work my friends and I put into this special car. She is driven regularly getting thumbs up wherever we go.<\/p>\n Russel B.<\/p>\n New Inventory The awesome ZO6, introduced for the \u201923 model year, is a fighter jet on four wheels featuring the most powerful naturally aspirated engine ever built! In the form of a double overhead cam, 5.5L, flat plane crank V8 monster. Generating 670hp and backed up by an 8-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. Not a Corvette for the faint of heart. \u00a0But most would be willing to risk it!<\/p>\n So, not only does 2023 bring us the introduction of the ZO6, but it also just happens to be Corvette\u2019s 70th birthday!
