Phillip Moore, the publishing director of Middle East Car magazine
explained: “The Corvette 2008 is saucy, powerful, and thrilling to
drive. Everything about it is a treat, including, and we’ll come back
to earth for a minute, the reasonable maintenance costs.”

The Chevrolet car finished ahead of the Dodge Charger and the Ford Mustang, picking up the award for the second consecutive year from the magazine.

The 2008 Chevrolet Corvette is available in three different models: the Coupe, the Convertible, and the big bad Z06, which features a terrifying 7.0-litre LS7 V8 engine rumbling away under the hood. For those brave enough to fill up one of these bad boys, the Corvette can be a pretty sweet treat. The rest of us will have to sit back and dream of the rumbling engine and the squealing tires.

In terms of the future, Chevrolet has big plans. A supercharged ZR1 models is prepping to join the ranks in 2009. The ZR1 will feature 638 horsepower and will rank as the most powerful Corvettes ever made. Chevy cars will have a lot of encouragement from the new Corvette, so start watching your dealership for changes in the coming weeks and months to reflect the new arrival.
