Corvette, Motorcycles, Center for Art Design, Flexjet (101)Take an in-depth look at the Corvette, one of America's most fascinating sports cars. Learn the history of this Chevrolet classic and take a look at some of the rarest and most recent models. Talk with "Corvette" Mike Vietro, who restores and repairs these prized collectibles. Then it's off to Long Beach, Calif., and the International Motorcycle show, where the hottest new motorcycles, toys and accessories are on display.
After that, head up the freeway to Pasadena to visit the Art Center College of Design. There, Ken Okuyma, the Transportation department head known worldwide for his designs, shares the cool new looks his students are cooking up for the cars of tomorrow.
Finally, meet a group of executives with an unusual time-share program—they each purchase a share of a private jet. Listen to their story as they relate how skipping the madness of commercial travel helps them not only in the business world, but improves their personal lives as well.
