Corvette vs Best of British (Aston Martin and Jaguar)
Check out the new Stingray on a twisty stretch of tarmac taking on the new Aston Martin V12 Vantage and Jaguar F-Type V8 S.
Racing driver Anthony Reid at the wheel, in the wet, with all electronic aids switched off...
There's only one winner!

Not for nothing but the Corvette is a bit more optimized for performance than the Aston. The Aston has other things going for it.
Ideally, I would want both a Stingray Z51 Coupe in the garage and an Aston DBS Convertible in the garage (and a McLaren 12C, while I'm wishing). Unfortunately I can only manage one at a time.

Wow!! It would be difficult to let it all hang out on that track with BIG trees to wrap around and a heard of sheep to plow into. Only in England. But OH how that Corvette did kick a$$ !!

I am surprised how far off the pace the Jaguar F-Type was.

He was not comparing prestige to blue collar. He drove three great cars and had some fun on a great road. The 'vette had the quickest time, the Aston was a tad slower, and the Jag was a little slower. Nothing more; nothing less.

No offense bro but I just dropped nearly 70K on a car...that's hardly blue collar. Not only did the corvette kick those cars asses, it looks just as nice as the other cars. Now Im proud to own an American car
