Handily sized to fit in the pocket and take to car shows, the Black Book is updated every year, not only with detailed information on the Corvette for each new year, but with additional information, updates, and corrections for models past years. For each model year, you will find pictures, original pricing, specifications, engines, transmissions, colors, accessories and options available, the production numbers, and all kinds of detailed information about the Corvette from the beginning of its production throughout its evolution to the present day. In continuous publication for over twenty years, the Corvette Black Book is an invaluable source of both detailed and even obscure information, but also includes anecdotes, trivia, and entertaining and surprising inside stories of the production for each year, in an easy to read no-nonsense presentation. So whether you are in the market for a new Corvette or a used one, want to be sure that the car you may be looking at is original, want to relive Corvette flirtations of your youth, or just want to win car facts debates with your car buddies, this is the one stop source that will satisfy your informational needs and curiosity about the great American sports car.

This review is from: Corvette Black Book 1953-2009 (Paperback)
Good book if you are looking at buying a Vette and want to see the difference in year models.
A must have for the "want to be in the know" buyer. Reads easy and small enough to carry with you when looking at cars.

This is an absolute must have for anyone interested in Corvettes. The information it contains is the best available. This is only my second edition, but won't be my last.
