Sometimes it is an honor to just be picked, and this is always the case when a major publication decides a car is worthy of reviewing. This time it was Motor Trend in their yearly Best Driver’s Car competition.
You must feel sorry (not really) for the magazine, as picking and ranking cars is a no-win situation. People always say why didn’t they pick my car, how is that car better than this car, why is my car the only manual transmission car, or sure my car is not ranked higher than a car that costs 3 time as much, how is that fair!

However, there are exceptions to that rule! And the car presented here is a perfect example of that. We think this ’90 Red Corvette Coupe deserves recognition as possibly one of the highest mile Corvettes still on the road! Who says a Corvette isn’t a reliable daily driver?

The really surprising part of the rumors are the prices: C7 ZR1 may start from $105,000, while the C8 might offer a base price as low as $65,000 or as high as $95,000. Remember, these prices are only rumors, and the real prices will only be known when GM announces the new Vettes.
