Corvettes

Here is a post about how to identify different kinds of Corvettes. The current models of Corvettes are these: The standard "Corvette", the "middleman" Corvette Grand Sport, the more powerful Z06, and the "King of the Hill" ZR1. These all have the general corvette shape, but some have their differences. The place to tell the most difference is right behind the front wheels. Where as the base corvette has nothing tell-tale, the Grand Sport on up have some sort of extra fin and symbol.

The standard Corvette (notice nothing super standoutish right behind the front wheels)

The Corvette Grand Sport benefits from some added things including Corvette Z06 body-work (flared-fenders, lower body, better suspension) But still the same engine as the base Corvette. Don't be fooled by the two slash marks on the front fender, those are just a retro option. Also, notice the "Gills" that are unique to the GS.

The Corvette Z06 Has more power than the Corvette Grand Sport and base Corvette (500 or so), but its suspension can't keep up as well with all the power. Don't think that it isn't any good, it just isn't as good as the ZR1. Notice the the vent in front of the rear wheels (for cooling) (GS and ZR1 Have this)

Last, but my no means least is the Mighty Corvette ZR1. The biggest exterior difference is the Carbon Fiber roof. The ZR1 shares mostly the same body work as the Z06. Under the hood is where the big supercharged 6.2 Liter V8 lies (638 HP!). That, combined with a killer suspension makes this car formidable. I could go on, but I have a review about it anyway, so I don't need to. You'll be converted soon enough.
