Saturday Morning Corvette Comic: Reconnaissance Run


Bob liked to take a little reconnaissance run before driving his Corvette down any unknown roads. As such, he also has one of the lowest mileage Corvettes in his club!

Earlier this year we passed along the exciting news that the winner of the 2020 Corvette Dream Giveaway had been selected. In mid-January, Henry Reus of Illinois received the call from Chris and Boomer at the Dream Garage that he had won a 2020 Corvette Z51 Coupe, a 1962 Corvette Restomod, plus a check for $45,000 to help pay the taxes.

Normally, the winner is flown down to Clearwater, Florida where the prizes are awarded in person, but unfortunately, that event was canceled due to the COVID pandemic.

Henry still gets to celebrate though even if it is at home, and yesterday our friends at the Dream Garage posted this photo of Henry with his two new cars and a nice winners basket filled with goodies!

We are sure that Henry will be able to enjoy his two new Corvettes on the road soon, and now the hard decision on which Corvette to drive will be his and his alone.

Here is the message that the Dream Garage posted to Facebook:

Now that things thawed out a bit up north, we received a photo from the 2020 Corvette Dream Giveaway winner Henry Reus. He received his two Vettes safe and sound!

We are sure he can’t wait get those on the road when the weather is great! One more big congrats to him.

I wouldn’t say that a price increase was unexpected, but the optics aren’t the greatest at this point in time as the assembly plant is continuing to face hurdles to produce the 2021 Corvette.

According to the Corvette Action Center, General Motors will be raising the prices across the board by $1,000 on the 2021 Corvette starting on Monday, March 1st.

You might not think a lumbering SUV would stand much of a chance against a svelte mid-engine Corvette.

But when the SUV in question is a Lamborghini Urus packing 641 horsepower with an upgraded downpipe exhaust that adds lots of amazing snap, crackle, and pop to the soundtrack, well, anything’s possible.

Here’s a split window Corvette you won’t see every day.

Some people may think this car is over the top, but to this enthusiast, we say the more the merrier. Every Corvette, to us, is supposed to shout out loud to the world that it’s a very special car, and this particular Corvette carries out that mission with one very big megaphone.

Today we have some information that is directly related to the C8 Corvette Launch for the United Kingdom. Chevrolet announced last year that a special “Launch Edition” model would be made available for the market and now we have the specifics on what the launch edition will include.
