Nice looking pin and good fun to play. As a theme though, I prefer HS2 and Indy 500.

I did have this game for a while and did want to like it, but failed! I should have probably played it more before moving it on, but where does the time come from!? I'm not a sports car person, so the theme doesn't help!

The best racing theme pinball ever. Killer flow, super fast gameplay, cool engine block shaking lock shot, and an interactive dragstrip toy. This game is a major sleeper! It's not just for the corvette enthusiast. If you like racing themes, this one is at the top of the heap in my opinion. Great early Gomez design.

I wasn't really pulled in by this game. Looks fantastic and plays real fast but I just didn't manage to get to grips with the gameplay - maybe I need to spend a little more time on one!

Quirky game. Not bad and it does have that delightfully tacky element to it that makes so many games fun but not the best flow, however still better than a lot of games out there.

Another great pin! Game flow is awesome. Interaction with the DMD is great. Pin has some easy, some medium and some difficult shots. If you are a gear head or a corvette lover you can't go wrong here. Has a cool drag race toy! Definitely a pin to have in any collection.

I may be prejudice because I own a Corvette car, but Corvette, the pinball machine is a great piece of work. The lighting and sounds are superb, but my most enjoyable feature is the gameplay and speed of the ball. If you hit the ball correctly, the flow of the game is very smooth. A good example is the "Catch Me If You Can" challenge; first you need to get the ball around the right loop, then into the skid pad; followed by the LT5 engine; and finally into the pitt. You can do all these in four consecutive flipper hits. The more cars you collect, the harder it becomes to collect the cars. The culmination of your efforts result in generating the car of the future. Multi-ball is fun and obtaining jackpots during multi-ball is not very difficult. If you want a game that will keep your adrenaline flowing and your excitement level at its peak, then Corvette is your game.

This game is a lot of fun especially for fans of fast cars and racing. It is a good looking game that appeals to guys of all ages. Girls seem to like it too. The music and humour are great and it is a great addition to my gameroom.

This game looks and sounds great. Love the artwork all over. Lots of good video too. The dragstrip toy is the coolest. The flow is awesome on this and that ball can get moving super fast. This machine is an outlane magnet which is mitigated somewhat by the left kickback. I rarely lose the ball down the middle. The playfield is pretty well balanced with a ramp, target and lane for each of the three flippers. The modes rely heavily on the left flippers and right ramp and it only has a few modes which repeat themselves if you are good enough. What I like the most are the Combos. It counts repeat loop shots. You also get "racetrack" bonuses for making different lane/ramp/target combos. There are 3 video modes, 2 are flipper mashers but in 1 you have to give gas and shift in a quick drag race. Don't blow the engine. Wizard mode is kinda lame though. The match sequence is cool in that the mechanic is checking the VINs and exclaims "The numbers match!" This is a fun machine but I wish it had more varied modes.

This was my first purchase in 2001 for my Corvette themed basement so I bought it never played it. It was much better than I expected. The drag race is my favorite feature. It has many gams you can play, collect the cars, catch the girl and lock balls for multiplay. The game does not get boring and is fun to play, even if I wasn't a car guy or a corvette guy.

A must-own for fans of the American sportscar. Initially to be designed by Pat Lawlor, you can thank your lucky stars the game went to George Gomez. He brings forth a very faithful Corvette product. The best of all the licensed-vehicle games (Viper, Harley). Score-bonus names on the PF are authentic. Gomez knows his car terminology. Modes in the game are reprensented by races. Winning a race grants you that car's pink slip. Very cool toys! The revving engine that shakes the entire machine and locks balls is cool; as is the toy cars that race each other (via making shots, or in the video mode requiring flipper button input to shift gears/gas pedal). An overall, attractive art package & nice dots. Lots of hot international babes, speaking in different languages, wanting to challenge you to races. Gameplay is fast! Not Johnny Mnemonic fast...but fast! DCS sounds are great. Shooter-lane idle music is incredibly catchy. A solid effort by Gomez. One of his better designs. Very collectable!

Kind of a ho-hum theme but I love the drag race gimick and the big engine block.

This machine failed to pull me in. It seemed a bit limited to me. Some really love it I just could not figure out why while playing it.
