Vette! is a racing video game published by Spectrum Holobyte for MS-DOS compatible operating systems in 1989, followed by Macintosh and NEC PC-9801 ports. The objective is to race a Chevrolet C4 Corvette through the streets of San Francisco. The game uses a 3D, flat-shaded polygon rendering of the city, including landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge, the San Francisco Bay Bridge, and Lombard Street. It was released on three floppy disks in both a black and white and color version.

A Sega Genesis version was planned, but never released.

Controls

This is a PC game: it uses the keyboard the way it did under MS-DOS, and the mouse where the game supports it. Click the game screen first so it gets your key presses.

Many DOS games start with a menu or ask a question first — read the screen and answer with the keyboard. Arrow keys, Enter, Space, Ctrl and Alt are the usual game keys.
