Perhaps best known for his portrayal of Rocky, Sylvester Stallone has become one of the most popular actors of all time and is instantly recognizable wherever he goes. But he is so much more than just an actor—he is also a lover of cars. Over the years, he's owned quite a few fast and exotic machines. And now, it looks like he has decided to add another one to his collection. Chevrolet Buick GMC Cadillac of Murfreesboro posted on Facebook that Stallone has become the owner of a 2021 C8 Corvette that he bought from their dealership.
The Corvette Dealership Said They Were Star-Struck
The dealership said that they were pretty star-struck that Stallone had gone to them for the car, and the owners went to deliver the car to him personally and posed for photos with the famous actor. And, at 74 years old, it appears he has no intentions of slowing down. The Corvette that Stallone ordered was a convertible edition, finished in quite a distinctive Rapid Blue with gorgeous gray wheels, whilethe interior is black and blue and perfectly complements the exterior.
The Perfect Photo Opportunity With Stallone And His Corvette
Of course, upon realizing who their customer was, the owners of the dealer, Bo Trivett and his wife Jennifer, couldn’t resist the opportunity to have a few photographs with the famous actor. As expected, there was an obligatory boxing pose as well as a few shots of the three-lined up standing next to the car. The Corvette itself was able to take center stage, showing off its gorgeous Rapid Blue colors in the sunshine and looking as mean and aggressive as any other Corvette.
The 2021 Corvette Is Highly Popular And Quite Affordable
The 2021 Corvette C8 has been well-received among many reviewers, and despite being technically classed as a sports car, its 483-hp engine gives it a performance that is very, very close to that of supercar territory. Stallone has probably paid close to $70,000 for his Corvette, but compared to some sports cars prices, that is really not that bad. It is an incredibly attractive car and will make a fine addition to the collection that the actor has already amassed. And what a cool deal for Bo and Jennifer to be able to sell one to such a high profile star.
