Some history behind the different Corvette colors
Since 1952 when the Corvette was released GM always tried to amaze people with the styling, speed, and overall effect of the Corvette. A Corvette is not a car you need; it is a car that you desire to own. Most people have a favorite body style or group of years that they prefer to collect.
