Corvette: Seven generations of American high perfomance

Since the beginning of the American sports car experience, the Corvette has stood alone. Many competitors have come and gone, but the Corvette is both the make and measure of all other American sports cars.

With the seventh generation of America's premier sports car, a hallowed name returned – Stingray. The new Corvette Stingray launched another chapter for a familiar story. Not only does form meet function, but function surpasses all expectations. Corvette: Seven Generations of American High Perfomance celebrates each generation of Chevrolet's industry-changing sports car, showcasing hundreds of rare and unpublished photos from General Motors' media and design archives, accompanied by in-depth text from renowned Corvette historian Randy Leffingwell.

Leffingwell covers the ongoing legacy of America's most celebrated nameplate, reaching back to Harley Earl's earliest concept and bringing the reader right up to today's top-performing Stingray. This book explores all aspects of the legendary sports car: history, racing, marketing, key designers and engineers such as Bill Mitchell and Zora Arkus-Duntov, celebrity 'Vette owners, and more. For the sports car enthusiast, it's enjoyable. For Corvette owners and fans, unforgettable.
