Most are bought by old farts and drive them 10 under the speed limit.
But realistically, mostly balding older men drive Corvettes since they are the ones that can afford a toy in the garage for the weekends.
The C7 seems to have somewhat reversed this trend. There are a surprising number of younger people like myself that are suddenly giving the Corvettes a closer look -- perhaps due to the more exotic styling and greatly-improved interior.
+1 The old ones were terrible, I had a 68 427 L88 with 69 side pipes added, the interior was sparse and cheap and the ride so bad if you had a hat on it would be down over your ears, an honest to God horrible handling over powered back breaker.
Still, IMO it was one of the best looking vettes ever but the looks alone could not make up for all its shortcomings it just made it a good looking bad car.
The new ones are a 100 times better and look good again a great car.
