2002 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Road Test
It's a perfect day in Southern California. An azure blue sky stretches from the whitecap frosted ocean to the rolling green ranch country up above the Santa Barbara strip as far as the eye can see north and south. California girls are on all the beaches in their summer casual attire and I'm stuck in the driver's seat of a black hardtop on a four-lane patch of scorching hot pavement making my way to the distant mountains - and loving every second of the anticipation.
