wikipedia uses supercar and exotic interchangeably but defines supercar as "a loosely defined description of street-legal, high-performance sports cars." so a corvette DEFINITELY fits into that box.
but it does NOT fit the exotic connotation or definition because it IS made in the USA AND people can buy one, so they can indeed have one if they really want one.
with that out of the way, let's move on.

Lol exactly.
First that clown says same price corvette or Ferrari what would I pick?
Corvettes never cost what Ferraris cost but offer equal or better performance for 1/3 or half the price.
There’s people on the corvette forum with Ferraris, mclarens, Porsche turbo s and yet they’re still buying corvettes.
Is it an exotic in the sense of cost and limited quantity? No.
But it is a supercar.
And more will agree than not so yeah let’s move on.
Hopefully those on the lists will finally own gm’s first supercar soon!!!
