Default A Corvette on the Simpsons!

I noticed this during an all-afternoon simpson-a-thon. Confirmed it in viewing a friend's DVD. Season 14 episode 18 "i'm spelling as fast as i can"



The best I can conclude it's a 2003 since that's when it aired and the car was on a lease.

yes....i'm a nerd
but i'm a nerd driving a vette

Wrong. The best 'Simpsons' car is the Powell Motors 'the Homer'.

And let's not forget the infamous Canyonero!

Lyrics:

Can you name the truck with four wheel drive,
smells like a steak and seats thirty-five..

Canyonero! Canyonero!

Well, it goes real slow with the hammer down,
It's the country-fried truck endorsed by a clown!

Canyonero! (Yah!) Canyonero!
[Krusty:] Hey Hey

The Federal Highway comission has ruled the
Canyonero unsafe for highway or city driving.

Canyonero!

12 yards long, 2 lanes wide,
65 tons of American Pride!

Canyonero! Canyonero!

Top of the line in utility sports,
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!

Canyonero! Canyonero! (Yah!)

She blinds everybody with her super high beams,
She's a squirrel crushing, deer smacking, driving machine!

Canyonero!-oh woah, Canyonero! (Yah!)

Drive Canyonero!

Woah Canyonero!

Woah!
