PDF 120 of 251, Travel and Automotive Features

Quite honestly, this is what I want to be doing more of, authomotive-focused road trips with a theme and purpose, that are a bit out of the box. Like many auto US enthusiasts I've long wondered what it would be like to let e new Corvette loose on the autobah so while attending the 2004 Geneva Motor Show for Motor Trend Online, I arranged a vehilcle loan with with GM's Corvette and cadillac importer, Kroymann's, in The Netherlands and drove it from Amsterdam to Geneva and back, picking up one speeding ticket along the way. On the Autobahn between Baden-Baden and Karlsruhe I was able to get this particular Corvette up yo an indicated 182 MPH (at night) legally on an unsrestricted section of the A6 Autobahn, later documenting it in daytime, at 180 MPH although Corvette Enthusiast magazine decided against using that particular photograph, using a shot of the speedometer indicating "ONLY" 170 MPH.
