It's no exaggeration to say that the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) exhibit has become one of the most popular CIAS 2023 venues. There was no shortage of interesting conversations and visual impressions at the presented exhibit. There was not a moment when adults and children did not crowd around the policemen and their cars, who were interested in absolutely everything, from the internal structure of police cars to how to find a job in the police.

This year OPP exhibit showcase a fleet of vehicles including a new Corvette Z06. According to OPP Highway Safety Division Instagram post, 2023 Z06 was hidden under a tarp at their general headquarters in Orillia for some days before Autoshow started. This new vehicle was donated by Chevy exclusively for the Autoshow in Toronto.

The 2023 Corvette Z06 is not exactly the usual car that Canadians can find on the mass market. It's really deserves to pay attention to it. And this is a good starting point for an interesting conversation with the policemen. They won't tell you anymore, not only about this car, but also about what it's like to be a policeman and how to join the police.
