The Politics Of Corvettes: Are We United Or Divided?

CorvSport takes a lighthearted look at the things we enthusiasts argue about. Did we miss any?

As we come off one of the more polarizing election seasons in American history, CorvSport wanted to take a more lighthearted approach to politics and examine some of the more popular Corvette subjects that have divided enthusiasts across the globe. Join in on the fun, and let us know if we missed anything. [Author’s Note: This article is FREE and not behind a paywall.

But, before we begin, it’s always good to remind ourselves how united we enthusiasts are. For instance, just months ago, nearly 100 Corvette owners from all nationalities and affiliations convened at the infamous Tail of the Dragon, and any differences faded away as they ripped through the 318 curves of the wicked Tail. And let’s not forget about the MotorTrend readers from all corners of our world who recently voted our beloved Corvette “The Most Iconic Car of the Past 75 Years.” And Americans, the world for that matter, fell in love with the eight-generation Corvette as total production has now surpassed 170,000 units. Lastly, we can’t forget how our National Corvette Museum is helping create bonds between family and Corvette with their new Family Delivery Program. Of course, this list of how the legendary Corvette unites us just scratches the top of the surface, but you get the idea!

Now, let’s have some fun, and remember to join us on Facebook to add to the list! I’m sure we missed some of the disagreements, especially with the older generations.
