To kick off the seventh season of “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” with Jerry Seinfeld, the President himself hops in the passenger seat of a 1963 Corvette Stingray split window coupe. The Silver Blue Corvette with a dark purple interior is powered by a 327-cubic-inch V-8 engine, and was popular amongst astronauts during the ’60s and ’70s. It was the only year with the split rear window, making a unique choice to pick up the President of the United States.
However, when it comes to a spirited ride with Obama, it’s not that easy getting off the grounds of the White House. So after a short jaunt in the Corvette, the duo get stopped by a guard trying to leave the grounds. The drive comes to an end and the President and Seinfeld hop in the back seat of one of Obama’s vehicles.
With the Corvette drive not happening, the two tour the White House, talking about Obama’s daily life being the Commander in Chief. From underwear drawers to getting a spot on Mount Rushmore, not much seems to be off limits.
The banter picks up toward the end of the video, and it closes out with the President getting behind the wheel of the Corvette, for a spin around the grounds. Even Obama tries to exit the White House, but the duo are stopped once again by the guard. “Just tell him you’re the President” doesn’t work after all.
Watch the video here to see just what the President and Seinfeld get up to.
