Dallas Raines from channel 7 used to have a big block C4 many years ago. I think these days he has a supercharged C5Z

Mario Andretti owned several Vettes.

He recently sold his C6 ZR1 and now has a Crystal Red C7 Z06.

Dick Guldstrand "Mr. Corvette" had a bunch, so does Bob Bondurant. Although the Bondurant school is in the process of switching over to Vipers.
Jesse James had a blown C6.
Jimi Hendrix had a blue '68.
Erica Enders-Stevens (2015 NHRA Pro Stock Champ)

There are no celebrities. They're just people like the rest of us!
