I like my ICE Corvette. My next Corvette will also be ICE. Not interested in hybrid nor all electric. But the car does look amazing.
Don’t you get a lot of snow there? Or do you run proper snow tires? Same, even though I’m tempted, but I’ve rented so many electric cars to have my fill lol. But who knows. If I get that GR I’ll be good until I get a new project lol which I have a bid on atm lol I really shouldn’t, someone stop me
I store my Corvette November through April. I have 2 Jeeps for the winter. But one Jeep is getting traded in next week for my new BMW, which is xDrive.
