I'm told that for quite some time, Corvettes suffered an average of 12 defects straight from the factor for each car. For a $40,000+ car, that is a lot of defects. Plus, let's face it, the safety record for the fiberglass models hasn't been very good......

The few times I've ridden in one, they rode exactly like a truck with straight axles. My kidneys felt each and every bump and defect in the road.....I've ridden in speed boats in rough water that felt better.
