Random Corvette Fact of the Month: C5 Trunk Space

Surprisingly, the C5 has more trunk space than one might think.  Two full sets of golf clubs in luxury golf bags fit easily inside.  There are also three "cubby holes" with covers that open up below the floor of the trunk.  These can hold smaller items like shoes, coats, etc. 

However, this doesn't mean that other model years of the Corvette do as well.  The C4 and the C6 both have less space, especially the coupes.

Random Photo of the Month: The Nos Car


Saw this badge on a yellow C5 Corvette at a show in 2005.  The car was actually equipped with Nitrous Oxide.  A yellow bottle was installed in the trunk which was open for viewing by the public (show off!).  I really don't understand the need for rocket propellant on a car that already comes standard from the factory with 350 horsepower.  Ok, I lied, maybe I do.  Wow.
