After taking delivery of her torch-red 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51 at an Ohio dealership this month, Elizabeth Farrar had plenty of time to bond with it on the drive home. That's because she lives in Meridian, Miss., more than 700 miles away. "This car's kind of special, and I wanted to be the first one in Meridian with one," says Farrar, a doctor and first-time Corvette owner.
