Unconfirmed buy really interesting new from Washington: We've stumbled upon a photo which is claimed to be a brand new Chevy Corvette Stingray now belonging to none other than Joe Biden and being delivered today, just hours ago.
Now, normally, we wouldn't buy into a random post, but there are a lot of things that add up about the story. First of all, Biden is a fan of American sportscars. The Vette's license plate is from Washington DC and says "THE VP" in clear. Nobody would ever suspect that a guy with VP on his plate would actually be the VP, right?

Back in January, Biden visited the Detroit Auto Show and checked out the new Corvette Z06, together with GM's controversial new CEO Mary Barra. At the time, the US vice
president made a very public statement, saying the bailout of the auto industry paid off. Could the new Stingray be his way of showing support?

Since the government put $50 billion into the bailout of "Government Motors", maybe they even gave him a car for free.

All this would be pure speculation if Joe Biden wasn't famous for loving his Pontiac Trans Am. Back in 2009, the Onion published fake photos of  vice president Biden washing "his" white car with no shirt on. Besides being funny, it also cause quite the outrage at the time.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
