That page was more ads than article. Not really any surprise the content isn't top notch.

I think the Corvette has had the longest run of any car model without interruption. With the Mustang 10 years behind it at number 2. A few other names are still around but with several year interruptions in them. And I am quite sure both will be around for the foreseeable future. It is what happens when you give those in a certain market what they want.

11% off MSRP in no way means the sky is falling. One of the most ridiculous articles I have read in quite a while.

Default The New Generation

Talking about Corvette sales, The young people today do not care about cars. They can't wait for the self driving cars to be available.They don't know a steering wheel from a tire. Totally into their cell phones. To the 20s and 30s crowd the I phone is god. So you can pretty much forget about the future of all sports cars with the newer generation crowd. Uber is their ride until they can get one of those self driving vehicles that should be available in the not so distant future. That is the SAD fact.
