Your Corvette Experience

Thank you for choosing Drive Elevated. Whether you are celebrating a special occasion, exploring Northern California, or simply treating yourself to an unforgettable weekend, I am honored you chose to experience it in this Corvette.

I have driven many incredible vehicles over the years, and this Corvette continues to be one of the most responsive, intuitive, and rewarding cars I have ever owned. What surprises most guests is not just the performance — it is how naturally the car comes to you.

My hope is simple: I want this Corvette to become more than transportation. I want the drive itself to become one of the most memorable parts of your trip.

Enjoy the experience. — JR

Every time you start the Corvette, it automatically begins in Tour Mode. That is intentional. Tour provides the best overall balance of comfort, performance, steering response, and fuel economy, making it the perfect setting for everyday driving.

When you are ready for a more spirited experience, press the Z button on the steering wheel. I have programmed it to maximize the performance feel of the Corvette with quicker response, sharper handling, and a more aggressive sound.

My recommendation is simple: start in Tour Mode while you get comfortable. When you find the right road and want to experience more of what the Corvette offers, press Z and enjoy the difference.

One of the best parts of this Corvette is enjoying it with the top down. My recommendation is simple: use it often.

The convertible controls are located on the driver's door panel. One switch operates the rear window, and the other operates the convertible top.

• • Push the convertible switch down to lower the top.
• • Pull the convertible switch up to raise the top.
• • Hold the switch for the entire cycle until the dash confirms the operation is complete.

During the cycle, the windows will lower automatically, the top will complete its movement, and the dash will let you know when the cycle is finished. Do not release the switch early.

I recommend operating the top while stopped whenever possible so you can give it your full attention and confirm there is adequate clearance above and behind the vehicle. It can operate at very low speeds, but get comfortable with the car first.

If you are headed to Napa, Tahoe, San Francisco, or anywhere else in Northern California, take a moment before leaving to ask one question:

Do I want the fastest route, or the most memorable drive?

If you are on a schedule, take the direct route and enjoy every mile. But if you have extra time, consider choosing a route that becomes part of the trip itself. Sometimes the extra thirty minutes become the memory you talk about later.
