  • Dear Santa...

  • i love all the people that get BENT outa shape that it had 150 hp,,..... it was the FIRST corvette,,, in a time where 100hp was normal for v8s,,, so give it a little fuckin credit for gettin 150 out of a 6.... i bet your first bicycle didnt have 150hp,, so give this lil guy a break,,, plus it was light,,,,, whats your civic weigh ?/ SON!?

  • You didn't need V8 power for this little car, this is a nice little cruiser, and sure has the look, beautiful car!

  • i want

  • @superzerohead It was doing 11 seconds 0-60 over a decade before we had men on the moon. This was the first version of the Vette also. Speed started going up as they got a handle on it.

  • 0-60 in 11 secnds, its like a pick up truck

  • @5tonyvvvv In 1954 Mercedes-Benz had the 300SL Gullwing, 3 liter straight six. Same year, the corvette has 3.9 straight six. Fair enough. The Gully has 212, the vette only had 150. Why? Technology.

    So, the Gully has more power, even when it is smaller. So, over to the V8 era of the C1 vette. One hole year after, and with a 4.3 v8 they still cant beat the German producer, how many horses? 195....... I must say this entitles the 300SL Gullwing as a supercar, from the start of it's production.

  • Who cares if it doesn't go that fast. It looks like it could. And besides, you'll need to go slow to pick up all the babes.

  • @neurocytohemotoxic

    More than enough in 1953, especially in a light car.

  • @neurocytohemotoxic what do u want 500HP..lol..it was the first vette..it was a nice little cruiser relax man
