Taking ownership of a Chevrolet Corvette, much less ones first Vette, is an unforgettable experience. If you’re like myself, it may have been a lifelong dream always on the back-burner, pushed out of the way by any number of life’s realities, until one day you just say, “What the heck!”.

Some time ago, Essentially Tech Media, of which The SSD Review is a part, purchased a new ‘business’ vehicle that seems to have gained much more attention than ever expected.
