What to look for
HCT12 is the brown 2022 release pictured on its original card. The side lettering and wheel combination make a better match than simply looking for a brown Corvette.

This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Check the engine and the thin parts around the front axle. On a loose example, ask for a level side view to see whether the stance is even.
Look closely at the printing across the doors and rear quarters. A small rub in pale lettering can disappear against the brown finish.
Collector questions
Is this a stock Corvette road car?
No. This is the Gasser casting, with a raised nose and exposed engine rather than the standard road-car profile.
