I wonder where you could drive a Corvette in Singapore?

Probably can only cruise slowly up and down that street with the fancy jewelry stores (like Rodeo Drive of Los Angeles) but forget the name.

Singapore has about six million people, and it’s an island. Did they mention you need a license to own a vehicle? Sales projection for the next year? My guess is one if not less...

Malaysia would be the only spot to open it up. Prob 100k license just to have the vette in Singapore.

The new “Corvettes” aren’t really corvettes anymore. They look like a Maserati, Bugatti, Ferrari, etc. Just another mid engine anonymous look alike car.

Singapore has a 100 miles of expressways.

“Prob 100k license just to have the vette in Singapore.”

For any car. And you have to wait for another car to be demolished to open up another slot.

No…. Not a bit. Never had any interest in the Euro race car look.
