National Corvette Museum

There's nothing like the low rumble of a Chevy Corvette - it's the trademark sound of the classic sports car. Classic car aficionados will positively drool over the 80-plus mint condition Corvettes representing all eras of the car's existence. The museum has not only rare classics but prototypes as well. Across the street, factory tours are offered for 10 bucks per person which is well below the cost of buying the high-performance coupe. (Photo by Christine Chase-Trippi)
