    I love these Midyear Corvettes ❤ I own a 67 Coupe. And they’re a blast to drive.

    Best year of the Corvette in my opinion. If GM were smart, they would make a "retro" version of this car with all updated engine, electronics, and safety equipment. Kind of like what Ford did with the Mustang and Chrysler did with the Hellcat. It would be a great car. Corvettes are built in the town where I live.

    The c2 Corvette is by far the most beautiful design. I owned a 65 convertible 327/350hp. back when a good used one sold for $4500. Man I loved that car

    I love the looks .. Smokey Yunick drove one and told GM that it had the aero dynamics up an upside down bathtub.. Too much air going under the nose made the front end light ..

    I wonder if those steps are still there, where Dr. Z sat with those racers?

    Nash Ville I age with you! Midyears are some of the best cars in the world!

    The track looks just as good as the Nurburgring for testing. Someone will keep Corvette as a front engine replica even with the C8.

    63 - 67 are some of the most desired of the breed. They really entered the end of the 50's round fenders and bubble lights. They were called Midyears never C-2. They battled the A/C Cobras and Ford's best. They out lived their rivels. and every year was an improvement. C-3's were faster but at a lost of cargo space and later performance 78-82. Corvette went flat tails lost their round tail lights and hide-away lights and are that way today. They now have insane performance but at the cost of great looks....Sad!

    I was 6 months old when the 1963 Corvettes came out with the other cars of that vintage. It means that it was being designed before I was born. The new cars, while in super car class, seems more like a Ferrari than a Corvette. It doesn’t look like a Corvette. Even though Zora Arkus Duntov wanted a mid engined car.
