    2024 CORVETTE DAY

    2024 CORVETTE DAY

    An institution since the creation of the Corvette Club France Est, Corvette Day has always been a special opportunity to showcase our club and our Corvettes to the general public. For many years, the event included Corvette rides offered to visitors, with all proceeds going to the Téléthon — a cherished tradition for both car lovers and curious onlookers. Sadly, these rides had to be suspended during the COVID pandemic. And since then, a shift in local government policy has deemed the presence of V8s in town less “appropriate,” depriving both the young and the young-at-heart of a dream moment. As a result, relocating the event is now seriously being considered, in order to preserve the spirit of Corvette Day and continue sharing our passion with the public.

    2024 CORVETTE CLUB HESSEN

    After being welcomed by our German friends in 2023, the CCFE returned the favor in 2024 by inviting members of the Corvette Club Hessen for a drive through Alsace. On the agenda: a visit to Eguisheim — one of France’s most beautiful villages — a cruise along the Route des Crêtes, a tour of the Mulhouse Automobile Museum, and even a stop at the Fun Car Show! Did they pick up a few words of French? Who knows — but what’s certain is that they thoroughly enjoyed their stay with us and are already looking forward to future exchanges.

    BAS-RHIN 2023

    As every year — or rather, since Blandine and Jean-Denis took charge of organizing the now-iconic “Bas-Rhin outing” — this event has ranked among our members’ favorites. The route is always perfectly tailored to suit both spirited drivers and those who prefer a more leisurely cruise. From C1 to C8, everyone finds what they’re looking for: the sheer joy of driving their Vette in good company. And of course, the lunch never disappoints, nor does the pleasure of gathering over a cold beer — a simple yet meaningful moment that brings the CCFE community closer together.

For a few laps, many lived the dream — channeling the spirit of Antonio Garcia, Jordan Taylor, or Tommy Milner. Many CCFE members made the trip to be part of this exceptional gathering, united by their passion for the Corvette.

    CHEVROLET WATCHES 2020

    CHEVROLET WATCHES 2020

    Louis Chevrolet never made watches… In fact, it was his father, Joseph Félicien Chevrolet, and his older brother, Alfred Édouard, who were watchmakers. Louis and his brothers Arthur and Gaston were all race car drivers. Technically, we should probably be talking about “Chevrolet Watches” in reference to the father or brother — but marketing had the final say, and it’s Louis’ name, the most famous of the family, that made the cut. That said, these genuine Swiss timepieces are not only stunning but also well known for their quality. So why not treat yourself (budget permitting) and wear a Louis Chevrolet watch while driving your Chevrolet Corvette? A refined nod to a shared passion for precision mechanics and high performance.

    CARE RIDE IN THE VOSGES 2020

    CARE RIDE IN THE VOSGES 2020

Today, it stands as a true gem for lovers of landscape and driving. Stretching from Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines to Cernay, it showcases the most iconic features of the Vosges range: mountain passes, rounded peaks, serene lakes, grassy highlands — and unforgettable panoramic views. For Corvette cruising enthusiasts, this 80+ km route is a dream, winding through the Col du Bonhomme, Col de la Schlucht, the Hohneck massif, Markstein, the Grand Ballon (the highest point at 1,343 meters), and finally, the historic Vieil Armand. A drive made for beauty and passion.

    THOUSAND PONDS

    THOUSAND PONDS

    When our friends Denis and Jean-Baptiste, proud locals from the Territoire de Belfort, planned this outing, they never imagined that, in early May, they’d be rolling out the Vettes under a dusting of morning snow! Thankfully, the roads were clear — otherwise, the day might have taken quite a different turn. The Plateau of the Thousand Ponds, shaped over 12,000 years ago by retreating glaciers, provided a perfect setting for a relaxed cruising experience, with local visits and tastings of regional delicacies. The day ended with the group gathered before the famous Lion of Belfort, sculpted by Auguste Bartholdi in 1879 — a memorable moment combining history, automotive passion, and warm camaraderie.

    SORTIE VICE-PRÉSIDENT 2018

    In 2017, Jean-Claude, our President, organized a fantastic outing. Naturally, he jokingly challenged his right-hand man to return the favor in 2018 with a Vice President’s event. David stepped up and delivered a day that delighted everyone. From early morning, the weather was glorious — perfect for a Corvette day out. The first leg of the cruise led our members along scenic Alsatian roads to a hearty breakfast at the Auberge du Ballon d’Alsace. Just looking at the photos makes us want to do it all over again! The second cruise brought the group to Sochaux for a visit to the Peugeot Museum. Before exploring the exhibits, lunch was served among classic cars — the perfect setting for lovers of fine automobiles.

    CHAMPAGNE 2017

    This was the must-attend outing of 2017! Champagne flowed freely, the visits were refined, and the gourmet meals delighted everyone. Our V8s had room to breathe on the scenic roads leading to the legendary Circuit de Gueux. It's hard not to think of Juan Manuel Fangio, who ran his very first Formula 1 race there… and years later, his very last Grand Prix. A place full of emotion and history.
