Chevrolet Corvette Stingray: Is It As Good As We First Thought?

By Travis Okulski; JALOPNIK REVIEWS; Today 2:14pm

Last year, with rose colored glasses and wide open hearts, we drove the 2014 Corvette Stingray for the first time. We loved it. But was it love because it was the promise of a shiny new Corvette, or because it truly is an excellent car?

When the Corvette Stingray was released, Chevy made the usual promises that it makes every single time a new Corvette is released. "This is a world class sports car," "there are no excuses anymore," "this is the best Corvette ever," or "it's finally a 911 competitor."

It's always tough to take Chevy seriously when they make these promises, since they've been saying this about the Corvette for decades. In reality, the Corvette has always been a hilariously fun, fast, great handling car that punches far above its weight, but it has been unfairly judged because of the idea that its tech is outdated and its owner group is one stereotypical fat man.

The newest Corvette is still a bargain (the orange one pictured here is $67,000), and it came with the promise — like every Corvette before — as being better than ever. Last year we said it was one of the best sports cars to ever come out of America.

Now that the rosy newness of the Stingray has worn out, is it still as good as we remember and we think it is?

The short is answer is hell yes.
