2018 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport - Redline: Review

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Like a fine wine, the latest C7 Corvette only seems to get better with age. With the latest addition, the 2018 Grand Sport promises to be the best handling model to date. Expect to see the halo ZR1 return to the lineup sometime next year and perhaps even see some exterior and interior tweaks before an all-new C8 is released.

    Alfredo Martinez Are you kidding? Have you seen a similar year 911 in person? Beautiful cars that exude class and style. I'll admit the c7 is the best looking vette yet, and the only one I would ever consider maybe buying pre-owned and thrashing it for a year or two. But it looks gimmicky next to a Porsche.

    Great and honest video. I would definitely get a bit nagged by that rattle. I tried to fix the weatherstrip on my Z06 and got so "into it", I ended up cracking a body panel. You really have to do as one salesman once told me, "crank up the radio, stomp the gas, and enjoy the car", or microscopic flaws about the Corvette will make you insane. If you have to have every body panel perfect, buy a Mercedes or Cadillac. They have that stuff nailed.

    Correction for you (4:02)...Grand Sport has magnetic ride control standard on ALL Grand Sport models. With the Z07 performance package upgrade, you get re-calibrated (stiffer) mag ride settings. But non-Z07 GS cars still get the mag ride, standard.

    A secondary cat delete, ported throttle body, and a tune already puts my GS at 500hp. The tune made a huge difference alone. These cars are really dialed down from the factory. Hell, Power Enrichment doesn't kick in til 5000rpm and 77% throttle from factory. Now imagine PE kicking in at 2000rpm, 0% throttle, increased pedal sensitivity, and torque limit settings removed after a tune is done. Pretty much have full power on tap. My car is no longer 'street friendly'. Probably why GM had a mild tune on the car. The only thing keeping me somewhat disciplined is the cost of rear tires and fuel. 😆

    I am so lucky to have a LS block, I'm only 16 have a $55k 2008 1500 ext cab Sierra Denali with the 5.3L engine, it will tow a 5th wheel and do 0-60 in 5.8, I have a performance tune and bolt on's, I probably make 330hp and 350 torque in a pretty light truck, it will EASILY spin it's tires and may be dangerous slightly w/o stability/traction, as while turning hard at 30mph, if you gun it the back WILL kick out badly, but it is surprisingly easy to control, and my custom performance exhaust makes it sound AMAZING! I have put it into a ditch while trying to do a corner drift while stopped, i hit it maybe 75% throttle, it lit the tires up and then it rotated into a ditch, slammed against the bumper, NO DAMAGE AT ALL, Chevy's are built tough alright, and it is SO EASY to drift!

    $94k without the ZO6's - 650HP motor - tough sell. I've seen ZO6's sticker lower than a Grand Sport. You can get a Vette discounted like few other nice sports cars toward the middle and end of the year. Perhaps a base Vette Z51 - 2LT - swap a cam with some head work and you're driving a very fast and manageable car with no hit to the Insurance like a ZO6 could. May be able to tighten up the shifts with a performance tune. Overall very good review!
