46th President Joe Biden Speed Shifts His 1967 Corvette with Jay Leno | Jay Leno's Garage

Jay Leno hosts a truly historic edition of the show featuring the original owner of a pristine 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray convertible. This beautiful American classic has been kept in incredible condition by its sole driver, the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden. In this exclusive episode, Jay and President Biden take the 1967 classic out for a spin to stretch its legs. The President shares the deeply personal story of how his father, who managed a local car dealership, surprised him with the Corvette as a wedding gift back in 1967. Originally priced at 5,700 dollars, this iconic sports car features a factory four speed manual gearbox that the President still loves to shift himself. The episode features incredible moments on the track, including memories of a legendary runway encounter with Colin Powell in a newer Corvette, and stories of burning rubber right in front of an anxious Secret Service detail. Jay and the President take a nostalgic trip down memory lane while discussing the unique feel of a classic mid-century American V8 engine. Beyond the mechanical highlights of the Corvette, the conversation spans a lifetime of public service, local train travel, environmental conservation, and the absolute vital importance of global alliances. To top off a perfect day of driving, Jay and the President make a classic pit stop at a local ice cream shop for a double scoop of chocolate chip on a sugar cone.
