It was America's sports car from the first, and in the half-century since, it's only gotten better.

Here are the cars that seduced generation after generation, from the 1953 Corvette convertible and 1963 Corvette Grand Sport to the 1990 Corvette ZR-1 and 2006 Corvette Z06--a fitting celebration of the world's longest continuously produced sports car.Tom Benford has been a freelance journalist for more than 30 years and contributes regularly to several national magazines.
