Cheri's Stories, In A Red Corvette

My life is all about fashion but with every look, details is always key when putting everything together. Recently I had the opportunity to take the 2013 Corvette Grand Sport Convertible in torch red on a week long ride and it was the perfect accessory any fashionista can have.

Whether you are going to a fashion show, press preview or red carpet event, the way you look and how you arrive are key. This Corvette is definitely a statement maker and it caught the attention of many as I cruised around the Manhattan streets heading to press events and launch parties.

This car embodies the aggressive performance you are looking for and it's intricate design has the style a fashionista like me wants. Going from 0-60mph in under four seconds, this convertible is the only one in it's class with that capability.

The Convertible Grand Sport also gives you comfort and convenience along with cutting edge technology that will allow you to stay connected to the world. You have Bluetooth technology for hands free phone use, head up display which projects important readings on the windshield so you can keep your eyes on the road, SiriusXM satellite radio and a BOSE premium audio system that includes nine speakers for top quality bass performance.

When you are behind the wheel, this car can makes you feel important and as close to a track wherever you are driving. So no matter what you are doing or where you are going, this car will create a presence for you. So who needs a red carpet or runway driving around in this car, the streets was my runway.
