I stopped reading when they couldn't even get the horsepower of the Z06 right (they claimed 630hp)

MSN is the first place I’d go for knowledgeable automotive analysis. NOT!

Don't get your Corvette info from the propaganda outlets who lie to you on all other daily news. I'm surprised this wasn't a CNN hit piece.

Hmm, no mention that the plant was down for several months for upgrade! Wonder if the writer had a clue or it was the typical article written for something negative to say to get a good headline!

Joe Namath was right when asked if he majored in basket weaving. "Naw man, journalism, it was easier"

Criticize all you want... but the purpose of the piece was to illustrate deep discounts on a car that isn't selling well.... yes, mistakes were make in the article, but don't throw out the baby with the bathwater....
I've been driving Corvettes for almost 28 years as daily drivers, have more than 700,000 miles in Corvettes.... I have zero illusions about our cars.

I'm glad I chose journalism as a profession. Worked and played and lived on five continents - 58 countries - and have been in all 50 states thanks to my "easy" choice of careers.
Graduated from easy universities too: Northwestern, Syracuse, and Texas A&M.

The records sales of all cars in 2016 has caused all new car sales to fall off not just the Corvette.
