Bowtie anywhere?
Does the Chevy bowtie appear anywhere on/in a Vette? Does the word "Chevrolet" appear anywhere other than the startup message on the DIC?
Had my Vette for about 5 months now and I haven't seen these anywhere. The Corvette must be the only Chevy product without either the brand or symbol being prominently displayed.
I know at least two people who love my Vette but never knew Chevy made them.

It's printed inside all the oil galleys. 
I thought that too. If it wasn't for the flags, there wouldn't be a Chevy emblem anywhere. At those were only added after the american flag was poo poo'd in 1953.

Molded into the backplate (between the backup lights) is a Chevy bowtie. Visible only until a plate is installed.

Forgot that one. I've only had my plate off once.

Everyone knows what a Corvette is but a lot don't know what a Boxster or most other sports cars are.

Emblem and license plate back are the only exterior places I can think of.

A month or so ago, I went to visit my sister who was in the hospital, on the first floor. When I got inside, my other sister had apparently been watching for me out the window, and she said, "Wow ... that sure is a fancy car you got out of! What kind is it?" I told her ... it's a Chevrolet.
