So many things make this 1 of 65 LT1-equipped Stingray Convertible special, and she’s making her market debut to the Corvette community on CorvSport. This rare Stingray checks off all the boxes, but I don’t want to steal Bob Puls’ thunder, because he did an excellent job describing the stunning...

Douglas caught the Corvette affliction in 1999 at 31 when he bought his first brand new Fixed Roof Coupe. Since then, he has owned 20 Corvettes, the most recent being his third FRC, a 2000 model in the same color as the first two. Douglas recently traded his 2000 FRC to feed his new car smell addiction, and he hopes when you read his pieces, you will sense his genuine passion for all things Corvette.
Any wise enthusiast who at least casually follows the Corvette markets can spot one of these listings a mile away. I was wise as well and grabbed some screenshots when this listing hit Facebook on Saturday evening, figuring something would happen to this goldmine for sale post. Well, the listing...
We have an action-packed news recap today, so I’m going to get right to the concise summaries. In less than five minutes you will know all the exciting news from our community. 1) The Accolades For The C8 Keep Racking Up In an era where negative voices tend to take...
With so many radical renderings popping up on social media lately, it’s become challenging to discern what is real and what is the result of a creative imagination. With the advent of AI, it can be nearly impossible to know if you’re being tricked. And you thought the days of...
Just days ago, one of the many online publications for the masses had a piece explaining why the fifth-generation Z06 is expected to go up in value in 2024. Usually, these articles tend to lean on the click-bait side, but since CorvSport has been following the C5 Z06 market closely...
Welcome to yet another new year, where we typically reflect on the prior year and what we could do better. Most often, these resolutions to make a positive change focus on us personally. We all know the common resolutions, with enthusiastic declarations on January 1st to lose weight, get in...
As we prepare to ring in 2024, CorvSport reflects on 2023, and just how busy of a year it was. An enthusiast couldn’t go one week without some type of breaking news event, proving just how enticing (and polarizing) our beloved Corvette can be. The polarization among enthusiasts escalated early...
CorvSport has had a busy year, with the addition of new writers to keep up with all the Corvette content, in what has proven to be an exciting time for Corvette enthusiasts. This year we published 851 fresh and relevant Corvette stories for our faithful CorvSport community. And faithful you...
This three-part series was initially inspired by my daily activity on numerous Corvette-specific social media pages, mostly Facebook (which tends to be the most vocal). While scrolling through my Facebook feed, on a weekly basis I noticed numerous complaints from C8 owners, and the idea to curate them in a...
These two renderings just started circulating on social media and some of the reactions have been hilarious. As many of you enthusiasts know, there has been a lot of news floating around our community about how the Corvette brand is rumored to expand, namely with a sedan and SUV. The...
Meet Caleb Hodshire, the ingenious young man from Fithian, Illinois, who felt compelled to make his 2013 Corvette the Trailboss edition that GM never thought to produce. What makes this story even more remarkable is that this isn’t the first off-road Corvette conversion Caleb has performed, but more on that...
The irony about this special Corvette is that it was revised after just one year, due to the very window it’s now described and recognized by, and it is now one of the most coveted Corvettes for collectors and enthusiasts alike. With just 10,594 Split Window Coupes built 60 years...
I’m on all the notable Corvette forums and social media pages all day every day, and I’ve done the legwork for you. Here are some compelling stories from the Corvette community, with concise straight-to-the-point summaries for your busy lifestyle. 1) 2024 C8 Production Update Numbers for 12/21/2023: Stingray: 176 Z06:...
It was a cold (for FL!) late December day as my girlfriend Kristen and I were leaving our scheduled pit stop along I-75 in Alachua, FL. Kristen knows the game. We look for any generation Corvette while on the road and yell when we see one. It was a dull...
Many enthusiasts consider the third-generation iteration of the iconic Corvette the best looking, and with its bold sharply-styled fenders and classic Stingray lines, it’s hard to argue. Many purists say leave it alone, but with the restomod and custom segments soaring in popularity, many builders are attempting anything to grab...
It was a pleasure to find this iconic 1978 Indy Pace Car on the Low Miles No Miles Facebook page, as it led me to discover one of the coolest auto museums in the country, with an enthusiast-owner who displays a genuine passion for these old classics. In today’s edition...
Nearly all of us spirited Corvette drivers hate to see a cop car behind us, much like having your wife along for a guy’s night out. When this 2022 Corvette cop car popped up on Facebook just days ago, I figured there has got to be more to the story,...
We all remember our first, don’t we? Given the demographics of the typical Corvette owner, I felt pretty accomplished buying my first brand-new FRC at 31. And I’m sure glad social media and Facebook weren’t a thing back in 1999, because I would not have kept my cool if some...
Recently CorvSport did a feature on the $135,000 body kit that was sending ripples through the community, with most saying it looked too bland, with the cost being a very close second. So, when I saw this trio of custom Corvettes, my first thought was, these should be wild enough!...
You know we’re in a crazy Corvette market when it’s news for a dealer to proudly announce that all their used C8s are under the brand-new price, but that’s where we are. As I scroll through multiple Corvette social media pages daily, the sentiment that the C8 market is finally...
You may recognize the name, as Caravaggio has been in the coachbuilding business since 1986 and enhancing Corvettes for generations. At first glance, the price seems a bit extreme, but some digging reveals just how exclusive and special this series will be. Not only is the Unica Series 1 limited...
I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t watch the infamous movie Corvette Summer until earlier this year when the girlfriend saw it on one of the retro channels and was stunned I hadn’t seen it. In my defense, I was only 10 when it was released in 1978, and still into...
Call me biased, but I don’t think any garment with a Corvette on it could be considered ugly, but in the tradition of outlandish Christmas sweaters, here is our exclusive 2023 “Ugly” C1 Edition. CorvSport’s General Manager Cameron Martel just asked this burning question in our weekly newsletter: “Did We...
CorvSport initially reported in October about a handful of brand-new C8s being shipped to a gated and guarded storage lot in Pontiac, Michigan, with only vague explanations being provided by GM. This was particularly disturbing for many soon-to-be owners, as some had already paid for their Corvettes (a stipulation with...
While scouring the internet to find compelling content to bring our faithful CorvSport readers, I witness lots of “say what?” moments, but none have triggered my spidey senses as much as this recent post on a popular C8 Facebook page. I almost immediately thought, hey, this would make for a...
The C4 Corvette has often been a polarizing generation in our storied 70-year history, but in reality, the C4 was a clean-slate revolutionary step forward for the Corvette brand, and it was so good it soon got banned from SCCA racing after beating up the Porsches (full feature here). When...
Welcome to a new series where I showcase cool Corvette Restomod builds from around the net. In the relatively short time I’ve been privileged to write for CorvSport, I’ve watched your reactions on our social media pages and you LOVE Restomods. In today’s episode, I’ll begin with a photo gallery...
Pratt Miller Motorsports are icons in Corvette Racing, with a racing record and provenance that rivals what their competition offers. With the recent shift in GM’s direct factory-backed involvement in the Corvette Racing program, the Pratt & Miller name has garnered even more respect and notoriety in our community. After...
Also known in some circles as the Turkey Rod Run, this iconic event was birthed by Stu Sarjeant in 1974, after his 1923 Ford T-Bucket was denied entry into the Jaycee-sponsored 1973 Ormond Beach Gaslight Parade. The parade was something Stu and his five-year-old son Jim had looked forward to,...
