GM history quiz ?
This is the Corvettes 50th birthday, and General Motors has two nameplates older than the Corvette, what are they?

There is no Belair.
But we're halfway there, Suburban is one.

BTW, LaSabre was the name of a Buick in 1951, but it was a totally different car. The first use of LeSabre in a production Buick was in 1962 when the LeSabre and in 1963 the Electra model came out. This was the first year for the Riviera.

You gave up too easily. What was the rarest option in 1979?
