Happy birthday Chevy. I'm more or less driving my 4th Chevy right now (if you count my Geo Storm). It's my favorite car brand.

I currently drive a 96' Chevy S10. Just keeps going.

Chevy makes good stuff so it's no surprise they've hit the century mark.

I'm a big Chevy fan myself, and it's pretty cool to see they've hit this milestone. I'm just learning to drive now and ideally I'd like to buy a Chevrolet as my first car. My dad's first car was a 1968 Camaro with a 327. It was a great car, and I miss riding in it. I disagree with people who say all Chevys are crap.
And, of course, Chevy is the most successful brand in NASCAR history. They even got to celebrate their 100 years with Clint Bowyer's win at Talladega, who was running a special Chevy 100 years retro paint scheme. Chevy is also re-entering Indy Car for the first time in a number of years. Keep those wins coming!

GM Corvette Racing also won the prestigious GT class at the 2011 Le Mans in France. 24 straight hours of world class racing, and Chevy beat the big all the big name European cars.

A great year indeed!

Wow, they're doing well in Europe too. It's cool to see them facing the big names in Europe.

In addition, even though Chevrolet is no longer GM's brand in Australia, (GM) Holden is the most successful brand the history of the Australian Touring Car/V8 Supercar series, with Holden and Chevrolet having a combined total of 211 wins.
