1960'S - 12. 1969 CHEVROLET CORVETTE 427 — 5.3 SECONDS (TIE)

September 1969What We Said: “One of the most extraordinary things about the Corvette is its overall smoothness. Most cars having an excess of 400 hp are jerky, neck-snapping, uncivilized, and bull-like, but the Corvette’s controls are so well designed that utter novices can jump aboard and drive like veterans—up to a point. . . . Power comes so effortlessly that neither car nor driver is ever called upon to strain in the slightest.”
