Very cool. I love it when "non-auto" ads/marketers make the decision to use/feature Corvettes in their ad. It confirms/reinforces the strength of the Corvette legacy.
Thanks for sharing.

This raises a question I have wondered about for a long time. Can they give you a ticket or say you can't drive a car for loud exhausts if they are factory original equipment?
I was a Harley mechanic for many years and that was probably the one thing we got stopped for the most...loud exhaust. (Definite safety factor for bikes to make sure they know you're there!!) Those were not factory parts, but I used to wonder about the factory side-pipes on early Corvettes, especially the big block cars. It would be kinda nice to be able to say, "Oh, you don't like it? Too bad sucker, they're factory original. Get friggin' used to it!!!" Of course. being who I am, I would then be sure to wind the first couple of gears way out (without breaking the speed limit) to emphasize the point.

When I bought my 69 Camaro new (375hp 396 with cambered exhaust) I got a ticket for excessive noise (was idling at a stop) went to court to fight it ,the cop changed it to excessive noise tires) didn't have enough money for court costs and spent the night in jail, didn't get pulled over much after that (read in between the lines) !!!!!
