what kind of car is lightning mcqueen from the disney movie cars
Lightning McQueen During the initial research for the first film, John Lasseter met with General Motors designers to discuss the new Corvette design[2] but subsequent changes to the storyline left both Lightning McQueen and rivals Chick Hicks (Cars) and Bobby Swift, Brick Yardley, Cal Weathers and Jackson Storm (Cars 3) as generic.
Chevrolet Corvette The Chevrolet Corvette, known colloquially as the Vette[1] or Chevy Corvette, is a sports car manufactured by Chevrolet. The car has been produced through seven generations.[2][3] The first model, a convertible, was introduced at the GM Motorama in 1953 as a concept show car. Myron Scott is credited for naming the car after the type of small, maneuverable warship called a corvette.[4] Originally built in Flint, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri, the Corvette is currently manufactured in Bowling Green, Kentucky and is the official sports car of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
