MotorTrend recently asked their readers to vote on which vehicle they considered the Most Iconic Car of the Last 75 Years, and we are delighted, but not surprised, to report that the Chevrolet Corvette takes the title. Since its introduction in 1953, the Corvette has been turning heads, winning awards, and inspiring the imagination of American popular culture for decades. The Corvette has been name-dropped in hit songs from the Beach Boys to George Jones to Sir Mix-a-Lot, and of course Prince, with his 1983 hit, “Little Red Corvette.” Since Alan Shepherd was gifted a 1962 Corvette upon his return from space, the Corvette has been the unofficial car of America’s astronauts. It has appeared in countless movies and TV shows, with a recent prominent example being the 1956 Corvette driven by the title character in last summer’s Barbie movie. The Corvette holds the record for appearance as pace car at the Indy 500 at 21 times, and it has appeared on the cover of MotorTrend magazine 114 times. From appearing on aspirational posters on bedroom walls to dominating the race track, the Corvette has truly earned the title of “America’s sports car.” Phillips Chevrolet in Frankfort, Lansing, and Bradley has Illinois’ Largest Chevy Inventory including the iconic Corvette in stock and ready to drive home today!
