Thanks for posting. It is nice that the business press can take the time to review an American icon instead of the usual foreign fare and actually say something very positive.

A very nice write-up and generally very accurate. Of course, there always has to be at least one mistake:

"The heads-up display on the 2005 Corvette even includes a reading of the G-forces you're generating when you stomp on the gas."

Oh well.
