Default C7 Road Trip Proves Heart of Corvette Truly Resides in Kentucky



Of all the road trips I’ve done as an automotive journalist, this one to Bowling Green, Kentucky certainly ranks right up there with the best of 'em.

The OP must have been there the same day we were there, cold and rainy. Yes, it is a destination place. My wife and I were extremely impressed at the factory. They treated us well and the tour was outstanding. I am pretty sure the tour was what convinced my wife to say "yes" to the new C7.

You need to go to the Bash and take part in a couple of the cruses, those, along with seeing the plant make the trip there very memorable.
Nice article.

Great read!

I just picked up my first C6 vette less than a year ago and made this trip back in April. BG was one of the most friendly places I've ever visited. It was an amazing experience to visit. I hope to pick up my next vette down there.

Going to the NCM factory, to watch my vette being made is an adventure I will never forget. And then, last year, we took the caravan from Montana to the NCM, making us want to come every year, Too bad its so far for us.
