Default Jenner 57 Corvette

Not a fan of anyone in this clan but did find this interesting. Bet she won't keep it very long. What caught my attention was that they called it a StingRay.

Here are my two favorite quotes from the comment section of this story:

"These girls have perfected the art of making old white guys furious."

And, you knew it had to happen ....

"My choice would of been a '67 Corvette Stingray 427 split window."

Ahh, the fine folks at TMZ ....

The other thing that caught my eye was the NCRS placard on the front. They also stated they would not be surprised if it set her back 40 grand. Quite a bit more I would guess. Looks nice.

Well, if Caitlyn can call itself a woman, I guess they can call this a Stingray...................

Our Tony Markovich says there's now a member of the Jenner family that we can all agree we care about: a 1957 Chevrolet Corvette.

Default I don't want to see that other thing anywhere!

But two young gals (real girls) and a Corvette is totally cool!!!! They probably went to one of the sell you something special big dollar guys who talked it up and they bought into the sales pitch. No big deal, they have money and it is a cool ride. They don't care what it cost, and neither should I. I have seen way worse deals than what is being thrown around in this thread.

Two gals cruising in a Classic Corvette-- two thumbs up!

Cool ride! But not really suited for a millenial to be driving around in. You have to remember... these girls are used to tilt wheels, electrically adjusted seats... cruise control...etc.
She'll be out of that thing in six months if it doesn't get wrapped around a tree first.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. My '62 isn't an easy car to drive, especially if you're not used to vintage machinery without power anything. I expect she bought it more as a fashion accessory than a car, so it may survive OK. It's just to look at.

Default A young gal driving a stick shift

She probably drives one better than most of the forum members here, in consideration of arthritis, and the other ailments of aging!
