Have you ever seen a Chevrolet Corvette? It is an American sports car.
Yes I have. Those are my dad's favorite car.
Cool, they were first introduced at GM Motorama in 1953 as a concept car.
What exactly is a concept car? Is it like a prototype?
Exactly, they were not available to be purchased yet. Myron Scott named the car after the small warship of the same name.
Huh that makes it sound even cooler. I would have never guessed that.
Originally they were built in Flint, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri. Now they are being built in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
that's cool. I've been to St. Louis before.
The first generation of 'Vettes were introduced in late 1953.
I think I remember reading that they were somewhat inefficient, but still very stylish when they first came out
