"Corvette" is a Chevy product, which is a subsidiary of GM....so yes. Chevy is part of the "Good GM", so will survive the bankrupcy.

If you saw a 'Smart' Car on a US Highway, then it passed the EPA/DOT minimum crash-safety standards prior to US importation by MB. The 'Smart' is more-safe than any motorcycle, MG, Triumph, etc. Its not something you want to be driving if your goal is to walk-away from a head-on collision with a Suburban travelling at 80 mph, but then show me a Ferrari with the same crash-protection...

Hey Gang - \
Just curious, is Corvette included in the GM bankruptcy? Hoping it's not included in the govt mess but I guess Corvette needs the rest of the GM line to meet CAFE mandates.

BTW< saw a MB miniture car yesterday (can't recall the name - could it be called "Smart"??) - looks like a egg on wheels. Yard to imagine more than 2 people in that thing. Would really hate to see one in an accident!

Thx
LarryT (getting a new knee this month!! - any suggesions?)
