The Corvette is the quickest car we've tested. Powered by a strong 350-hp, 5.7-liter V8 engine, it accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 5.6 seconds, almost a second and a half faster than the next quickest, the Porsche Boxster. The Corvette is also relatively roomy for a sports car, and is one of the few that can accommodate tall people. It can also accommodate a pair of golf bags in the trunk. Handling is nimble and secure, braking is excellent, and the ride is tolerable. On the down side, the interior fittings don't have a quality look or feel, and the top is a nuisance to operate.
