Cruiser’s Enjoying the Mediterranean
[/b][/b]
[/b]Our NCM Cruisers sailing aboard Celebrity’s Millennium cruise ship are having a wonderful time enjoying the sites of Italy, Greece, Rome and other exciting European ports of call.
The Museum’s annual Corvette Cruise is an adventure that unites Corvette enthusiasts for trips to places most only dream of and at very reasonable rates. NCM Members receive even better savings and you can be a part of the 7th Annual Corvette Cruise when we set sail for a seven-day Alaskan Cruise, May 30, 2008. Ports of call include: Vancouver, the Inside Passage, Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and more. See walls of ice that stretch up 5,000 feet to shake hands with the sky, hear the murmur of prospectors haunting old-world shops and saloons, see totem poles scowling over temperate rain forests while salmon jump through crisp mountain streams. This experience is one you don’t want to miss! Find out how you can join other Corvette enthusiasts on an adventure to Alaska by visiting our website at: http://www.ncmcruz.com or contact NCM SeaMaster Cruise Director, Sheri Clarke at: 866-427-8938.

Corvette - Featured as 1 of 10 All American Sports Cars by Forbes.com
By Jim Henry – Forbes.com
[/b][/b][/b]
Sports cars are different things to different people. For Don Chaikin, the recently retired automotive editor of Popular Mechanics, if you look up "All-American sports car" in the dictionary, there's a picture of only one set of wheels.

"To me, it's the Corvette," he says. "The classic definition is, it's got to be front-engine, rear-wheel drive. It has to have a V8, and it has to have a true dual exhaust. It has to have two doors and two seats, and it can't be a sports coupe."
Another widely held and passionately defended definition of "sports car" is the tiny, affordable two-seat roadster. Like America the melting pot, this concept is a blend of different nationalities. Read more at: http://www.forbes.com/forbeslife/2007/06/27/autos-wheels-sports-forbeslife-cx_jh_0627cars_slide_3.html
The 10 featured All American Sports Cars are:

- Cadillac XLR-V
- Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
- Chevrolet Camaro (on sale in 2009)
- Dodge Challenger
- Dodge Viper SRT-10
- Ford Shelby GT Convertible
- Panoz Esperante Convertible
- Pontiac Solstice GXP
- Saleen S7
- Saturn Sky Red Line
