Review
I bought my 2013 red coupe used, with only 8,000 miles on it, and it now has 29,000 miles, as I drive it daily. It's always with expectation and excitement that I get into the car and turn on the engine, with that roar making me smile ear to ear. I get compliments, thumbs up and waves wherever I go, from old and young alike. There are other sports cars with more refinement, more technology, and a very, very few, with better performance, and costing twice as much, but none that makes you feel as good driving it as does the Vette. I always take the long way back home, because driving this car is an endless joy, and it gets 29 MPG on the highway. Proud to drive a truly American Icon, a car that looks, sounds and drives awesome, and everyone on the road knows it and respects it. Yes my BMW M5, Porsche Boxer and Audi S4, were all truly great cars, but none put a permanent smile on my face or made me feel as proud to drive it as the Vette does. This is like sex on wheels. Really!!
