The Chevrolet Corvette Roadster turns any commute into a headline, with sculpted, exotic-car looks and an electrically folding roof that invites you to drive with the sky on. Behind that stylish face is a jewel of a sports car that serves up sharp handling, a theatrical exhaust note, and more drama per mile than most rivals — great fun for buyers who want supercar sensation without supercar pretensions.
