    Same location as found in May- only facing the other way. But now 2026 model year.
    Lucky day today-parked on a dead end road extension-
    9 brand new wrapped various 2026 Corvettes-ID'd by wheel branding and exhaust pipes-

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint.

    Got out for a rip today. Incidentally, the first day of snow here. The cold tire light was active today, @lousubcap

    And yes, for the record, I am wearing (knock-off) Crocs and old duds. Neighbour coaxed me out for a spin while I was mid-tire change (and racing against a deadline at that).

    Better to be lucky than good right there.  Were you able to get out into any fairly open road to air it out?
    The exhaust notes have got to be incredible.  
    How much trouble would he get into if he just tossed the front plate on the passenger floor?  B)

    We didn’t make it to the highway, but it didn’t stop us from getting in a few thrill-inducing starts off the line. Manufacturer claims 0-60 in 2.7 seconds, but I had read reviews saying that that is a conservative estimate. 

    Sound was great. That signature whine during crisp shifts at high revs was satisfying. Owner was telling me you can actually get the car from factory with optional straight pipes. 

    He never puts the front plates on. I should really offer to help him out and take a drill to his bumper.

    Wife was driving our car. Going about 80. We passed this thing. It quickly overtook us as the dude noticed me noticing.
    1320 did a social media post with a guy who had this with a K24 Honda in it paired with a BAT (big A$$ turbo).

    it was beating everything from a 60 roll.

    Between the wind and the scream of the engine, I'd say hard pass..

    I want a false sense of security if traveling well above 100 mph..

    What a run! There won't be another one like him in the sport of racing. A much deserved retirement!

    International would not have been my first choice.  Do like the Blue though!

    While it's not an enclosed trailer it's nice to see it at least has a salt shield up front.

    That is the true American classic. Beautiful, just beautiful. Only offered in 1963.  Being old I have an old (aren't they all) college friend who owned one.  He traded it in for a 911-has never stopped regretting that move.

    Same location as found November 7- Corvette 2026 model year. I need to find out the back story to this happening.

    The back story is that the Corvette plant is down the road from you in Bowling Green.

    Trust me I am fully aware of that.  I am around 130 miles north of that plant and 16 miles east of I-65, the feeder north and the I-65/64 junction to the east and west (I could toss in I-71 north but you get the picture...).   The back story I am curious about is why this landing zone.  Gotta be family connections.  
    Happy Saturday!
    Edit: I am also aware that the plant in Bowling Green is the only Corvette manufacturing facility.
    That's all I've got.

    Those are beautiful, especially the Maserati.  That is dream territory right there.  However, saw this in Sedona this weekend and would take this over all of those.

    It is a 2023 Mercedes Chassis - probably successor to Unimog.

    There is more info/links here.  I don’t have Instagram so I can’t see much, because most their content is there.
