It should come as no surprise to most readers of this website that Corvette owners love their cars so much that they often keep them for years.
Now a study just released by iSeeCars.com confirms that belief.
In fact, the Chevrolet Corvette ranks second on the list of new passenger vehicles whose drivers keep them the longest, with the average years of ownership for the Corvette being 9.0 years.

Take the Corvette and what you want to buy will be 50% more.
