“We gotta take pride in our sports cars” 🙏 Hats off to GM for producing a car this good at a value that’s just insane.

The cinematography in this video is amazing! You clearly spent a ton of time planning, and in post. Thank you for taking the time to deliver only the best you can. Fantastic work, sir!

double that. Glad you’re back. we gotta show more support so we can get you to warmer states so we can get year round videos!

I got my C8 early last month after a 14mo wait for MSRP. 1LT $70,265. It’s been a great car so far. Am amazing value if you hold off on luxury features.

That is a good looking car and trim. Fast and luxurious. Really next level

Not getting the Z51 package is a mistake. Base = Buick sedan. Z51 = sports car. Mag ride ups the performance in corners. Just my biased opinion. Thanks for the classy review.

excellent video! Overall cinematography, sound and graphics choices were outstanding.

Great review man! Love the quality of the video, the editing, the audio quality and graphics. My lil brother has a c8 convertible spec out and it’s a phenomenal car but i personally still prefer my Gen1 R8 Spyder with more of an analog feel. 😎🤙🏼

I’m in the market for a mid engine car around $70-80k and I found an ‘08 gen 1 R8 with a gated manual. But I also like the tech of the new C8! I’m so torn!

This is a review that I wish I made 2 years ago. But better late than never.

He did review it a couple of years ago. He drove a Red Mist coupe with a FabSpeed exhaust. And it seems like he’s come around on the C8 because he wasn’t too thrilled at first.

Best car I’ve ever owned. I was fortunate enough to get my 2021 Z51 coupe at MSRP. Checked every box (except upgraded wheels where I went aftermarket) and my 3LT came in at $88k. Not sure it’s even feasible to get a C8 below $75k these days. Unless it’s severely used or a bare bones spec.

I'll be ready to get a C8 in two or three years once the warranty on my GT350 is up hopefully prices will even out by then I really want a black on black convertible

Haven't been here since the Lexus LC500 review, but wow, the production is still top notch quality, it's made for cinema view still too. That exhaust note is just beautiful, the interior is almost perfect & I've noticed the music coupled with your voice could probably put me to sleep hahaha.

Just had this a month ago and I think it does live up to the hype. *IF* you can actually get one for MSRP. & I didn't you know you're in Jersey also, nice!

Well long time no see stranger. Glad to see you back in a vette. 😂

Good job that camera action is on point!

I love my C7. Bought it during peak covid for a steal.

I have watched a lot of reviews on this car and you sir, have provided one of the best. Keep up the good work.

Dan, it is G-Shock of Sports Cars

Glad your back with the content. Love your style.

This was the first time on your channel and I have to say it was done with a lot of class. There was a ton of information with a bunch of comparisons and all it did was make me feel that much better about my decision on my 2022 3LT HTC. Great Video!!!

Couldn't have said it better, brother. You absolutely NAILED the description on this car. Thank you for this!!

Nice to see you posting again!

Great production value, glamour shots, narrative pacing. Nicely done

We need the Z06, man! Super video!

Great video man! Very well done!👍🏼

So glad you’re back!! I have a 2018 C7 ZO6 A8. I was excited when they announced the C8 ZO6, but I guess I’ll have to wait. In the mean time, I’ll enjoy the “old school” C7 and the thrust of the supercharger.

Love the way you review cars bro. You can feel the passion!!!

Excellent video. As a long time Vette and C8 owner, I believe your comments are valid.

Yay c8 review finally !

Great content my man. New sub. Considering a C8 now myself now that they have come back to earth 👊

Great review.

The cinematography is insane here!! Beats straight pipe, throttle house(and those are the best ones!) Amazing work brother. Can you tell us how that Interior is designed? I put in 3LT but cannot get this combo of colors. This is just too sick

Ok, you love your Corvette. Looks good, goes fast. Comparison time ! McLaren vs Nissan GT-R vs Corvette. Thanks for such a well produced programme AND no bulls..T. Wishing your excellent programme a long & profitable lifetime from Queensland Australia.

I miss your Corvette content. Please buy one!!

I’ve owned 3 C8’s all at MSRP. 2 coupes with Z51 and mag ride. Now in a HTC without Z51 and mag ride. However do have performance exhaust. This is the car for me. $76,857 MSRP. Bargain car for what you get. Rear low profile spoiler and front splitter. Looks better then the Z51 rear goofy looking spoiler. Never going to track the car so this combination is the best IMO.

Just Subbed, Great produced review. Its funny you did the same thing I did. I also signed up for the C8 a while back and I got so mad of the waiting and the game that some dealerships did. Its was like they were bypassing me even though I had a low number on there list. At the Time I gave up and just got a C7 z51 and had a ball with it. Looking back though I should have waited a little more. When I gave up though I found one of the top 10 dealers taking deposits for future car @ msrp. So now Im early on the E-ray list. So hopefully I should have a c-8 Finally at the end of this year......maybe.

Gorgeous cars! Yes had a 98 c5 targa before, can't wait for my 2024 c8 3lt!!!

Beautiful car. Great video. I love retractable hardtop convertibles (sadly a dying breed, I'm looking at you Mercedes SL). Wish I could afford/justify one of these.

Great video. Speedlabs always bring it. U still have the taycan?

That is artwork

WOW WOW WOW, what an excellent video. I almost lost track of the car. LOL.

C8 is slower because aero is tuned for downforce and heavier than the C7, and the C7 was heavier than the C6. The DCT makes it fast and the mid engine makes it launch so well.

Ciocca is turning out new orders in 3-4 months. At MSRP. If your not on a list and with a decent number, Z is unattainable at MSRP. But base car now is.

Great video 🇺🇲

I’ll say Porsche 911 is the Rolex of sports cars.

For the money its a good car even with the dealer markups. However I would prefer the Z06 or a C7 ZR1 to this car.

They are back

Rocking the LEZ-BEE-UHND cut on this bihh

I’ve gotta say two things: 1. Just discovered the channel and love it! 2. At the risk of sounding like a hater, I just don’t get the appeal of this car to a car enthusiast. I find the design too heavy looking and schizophrenic. Also, the amount of them and drivers thinking they are driving a Ferrari is a huge turnoff to me. I miss the C6.

Thing is the C4 was technically a mid engine car with a digital dash(earlier years) I think the C5 even had a Heads Up Display. So they more or less back some features rather than adding new ones.

do rolexes also have a high rate of failure for whatever the watch-equivalent of a transmission is?

What did you get on the street 0-60?

I would have outrun it in my stock manual M4 comp from 40-100 & 60-130

As someone whose balling on a budget would you recommend even looking at the base c8? Comparing your model and the base is depressing I’m someone who does like all the bells and whistles but can’t afford a 3lt atm.

Could not agree with you more!

If GM could cut 450 pounds off the curb weight and fix the ridiculous water in the engine bay problem, they would have a legendary car here.

Let's hope the Gm strike is not long!!!

Z06...if you can get one

W sponsor

194 top speed in the non Z51. 495 hp with the performance exhaust. Read the manual before you do a review. More exhaust sound in the HTC then the coupe.

Did I miss the explainer of how the C8 is the Rolex of cars? I thought this would be more of a Tissot, Oris, or Hamilton.

Z51 coupe will do 0 to 60 in 2.8.....many people have done it....HTC is slower and yours was down on power at 490 and not 495 being a non Z51

ALL C8 Y chassis cars outclass the competitors having a neutral handling chassis to start with. The stingray can be tuned by owners to be on a 991.2 GT3 level track performance car FOR DIRT CHEAP. The top end is all about the way it breathes, and airbox and exhaust eliminate that problem.

We have got to stop saying “start at 65k what a great value” that’s such bs. Anything you see in real life is 20-30k more ! Base price bait on legacy car markets are such bs…

I’ve always loved your videos- truly! But, the C8 looks like 3-4 different designers had blinders on and a supervisor said, Ok let’s stick those designs together and see what we have: the front has too many odd shapes in its lines, the sides don’t transition all that well and the back looks like it’s missing something. I’ll keep my C7 thank you.

Thats not an Corvette its an Sportscar clone

Is that a hickey?

On autotrader there's 164 c8s 100 miles around my area compare to just 34 bmw m3s and 25 718 caymans. The C8s are sitting in lots and not selling, these stealerships will need to lower the price eventually. They are not really in "demand" as all these hype says. Unlike Rolex you cant even get a no date sub without a 2 year waitlist.
