Big news for Father’s Day! A A Or for any day. A A Shout! Factory shifts into high gear as they take viewers for a major ride down the most famed American highway as they get ready to release Route 66: The Complete Series .

A number of years ago, a forward thinking Chevrolet dealership in the greater Detroit, Michigan area hit upon the idea of providing a service to Corvette enthusiasts around the world: a blog that would keep Corvette enthusiasts up to date on their hobby.  Enter www.CorvetteBlog.com.

We have been here ever since.  Our philosophy is to serve and to win.

We serve day after day, week after week, as we attempt to bring to the attention of the Corvette enthusiast news of current and future Corvette product.  From time to time, we look to the past, to celebrate the glorious history and tradition of America’s Sports Car.  And, what a story that is!

We visit the favorite museum of the Corvette enthusiast regularly: the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky.  We attend the biggest Corvette celebrations east of the Mississippi River: Corvettes at Carlisle (Pennsylvania) and the Corvette Funfest (Effingham, Illinois).

We visit Corvette themed activities all around Motor City to report the news: the GM World Headquarters, the GM Heritage Center, the GM Performance Build Center, the Milford Proving Grounds, the Woodward Dream Cruise, the North American International Auto Show, and the Detroit Grand Prix.

And we participate in several of the most influential Corvette club activities in the area: America’s Corvette Club’s Alpine Corvette Show, Corvettes on Woodward, Corvettes at Canterbury, and others. And, we are also assisting in getting out the word about Corvette Caravan 2014.  All of this is to bring you our unique point of view on what’s going on..

We serve to win.  Our desire is to also provide you with the information you need to properly purchase a new or used Corvette.  Sometimes we have insights on unique Corvette options or accessories, factory and after-market.  No one person can cover it all, but we do what we can.  We look to win your interest, your friendship, and someday perhaps, win your business.

Thank you for helping us to achieve two and a half million hits on our website – as of today!

Another Corvette Grand Sport 3LT Convertible head-turner is our Stock Number EC1127.  This is a 2011 Callaway SC606, totally equipped to look hot, and perform even hotter!

The two-tone custom Callaway C16 Hood sets this car apart.  Other Callaway equipment provides 606 mind-blowing brake horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque at 4500 rpm!  That it still gets 26 mpg on the highway is simply hilarious!  Sure, buy it for the great fuel economy.

The Eaton TVS2300 Roots-Type Supercharger is dressed up with the ChromeCoat Housing Option.  The 6-Speed Manual Transmission is enhanced with Callaway’s Short-Throw Shifter.  The part of the car that most folks will see is dressed up with the Exhaust Slat Option for maximum good looks.

Special incentives from Chevrolet right now reduce the price from list at $97,910 to just $87,575.  In addition, GM has additional programs that might reduce the price even further.  Call 313-532-2571 or write for details.

If there’s one thing nerds love more than obscure factoids, it’s the thrill of a good argument.

The Corvette faithful are adamant that Chevrolet needs to stick with some kind of V8 engine that’s powered their favorite sports car since the 1955 model.

Today the character of the Corvette is well defined as a 2-seat, high performance sports car with enough bells and whistles to satisfy the most discriminating owner.

With an increased number of consignors, bidders and attendees this year, the Fort Lauderdale event produced an impressive 72 percent sell-through rate.
