The Ron Fellows Z06 Corvette
This is a collector edition car with a long name. Officially, it's called the Ron Fellows ALMS GT1 Championship Edition Z06 Corvette, or something like that. Rarely is the entire name used in daily conversation. No matter. The car is still as amazing as they come.
This special Corvette is a tribute to Ron Fellows, driver for Corvette Racing in the GT1 class in the American LeMans series. His association with Corvette Racing started in 1998 with the development of the C5-R race car. His successful driving career included special recognition by fans as the most popular driver in ALMS for 4 consecutive years from 2004 to 2007. Fellows has been connected to Corvette ever since, continuing as a technical expert following his peak years as a driver.
Offered for the 2007 model year, the car is a collector's dream. Only 399 of these cars were produced with only 300 sold in the US. Special features include a rear spoiler, a unique windshield banner, a fully-appointed red leather interior, and flashy chrome wheels. The exterior is a striking Arctic White color with Victory Red hash stripes on the front fender. The hash stripes include a maple leaf as a tribe to Ron's Canadian heritage. Best of all, the console of each car is hand numbered and signed by Ron Fellows himself.
Nice car!
