The time has finally come! Our allocation for our 70th Anniversary C8 has arrived. Come with us to Bowling Green, Kentucky as we see our car for the first time and get treated with a little ZO6 surprise at the Corvette Museum I'm not sure you'll ever see this many C8 ZO6's in one place again! So enjoy this video!

I watched this video for the first time over a year ago and thought the color combo was amazing. Watched it for a second time today and my original comments have not changed. Your color scheme selection is and was outstanding.
I usually don't like stripes but your color combination is spectacular. Beautiful interior. Congratulations.

I went back-and-forth about putting the blue stripe on my car. Should be delivered in the next couple weeks. I chose not to put it on but now I’m regretting that after seeing yours! There were not very many good examples, online of what the color actually looked like. Car looks amazing! Good job!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you like the build. My brother and I designed pretty much everything together. And we almost immediately decided on the stripe. But it’s only a decal. You can always have a shop put one on your car. Plus consider that there are many more aftermarket options than what you get from Chevy! So in that respect, you have the advantage! Good luck. Let me know when you get yours!
Amazing!! Congratulations man

the American Dream right there! congrats Sir! phenomenally spec'd out and configured. my only minor gripe with the C8 are the stock wheels, they are decent looking, but not necessarily great (save for the Z06 !) but that can easily be adressed through the gigantic and magnificent American aftermarket. I'd go for Aerolarri personally, but just my 2 cents. again, congratulations !

Love the color combo. I am next in line to order one. Was going to do the Red Mist with Natural interior, but after seeing your video, I'm going with the Hypersonic Gray and the Blue Tension interior. Looks almost otherworldly! I bet you won't see too many of those on the road. The only things I'm changing is the calipers to Edge Red, the 5-trident-spoke machined-face Spectra Gray-painted wheels, and the smaller Z51 spoiler. Question: On my build spec, the head rests are in the bright blue color. On yours, I notice they did them in darker blue. Did you order that custom or is that just the way it came? I think I like yours better.
@enthusiastdriven
Жыл бұрын
I love the color combo as well. I think the hypersonic with the blue is the perfect contrast without having the typical bright colored sports car. In regards to the calipers, that was just something that wasn’t selected from the factory and the standard option was that yellow/green color I suppose. But it has grown on me to be honest. But the head rests came that way when you select that interior option. So it wasn’t something that was selected. This was a custom ordered vehicle so every option and color was selected for this build for the exception of the calipers.
Not sure about the blue personally but nice spec

Thanks man. To each their own. But the blue with the black and carbon accents really make it for me. What would your ideal spec be?

If only I had daily access, I'd make all the zo6 content I could physically handle. But i'll do my best to find one. They're so rare.
I have to admit I didn't like the look of the C8 when I first saw them the fact that it didn't have a stick shift and also they separated the rear exhaust tips but the Z06 has the exhaust tips together in the middle I can live without a stick shift but I would I want my tail pipes together on a Corvette all four of them

Well we knew that the era of the manual transmission has long passed. So although I’m not happy about it, I’ve made peace with it. In regards to the exhaust though, I personally am not a fan of the center exhaust. I prefer the quad tips on either side of the car. Just personally what I prefer. I see your point though.
QUESTION, How come your ZO6 doesn't have the center exhaust? The only one I have ever seen with exhaust towards the outside of the rear...
@enthusiastdriven

So our spec is not a zo6. We weren’t able to get one due to demand. But we did get a 3lt z51 c8 to our exact spec. The zo6’s we saw were at the beginning and at the end of the video. I’m not sure we’ll ever see that many together in the same place again!

Hey Brian. So start to finish was about a year and a half wait. I’m not sure if that is still the case. But I do know that the more options (particularly tech options), the longer the wait time is. I still think it’s worth custom ordering because you get everything you want, how you want it.

Are you worried about depreciation purchasing old technology? Lots of nice bling but performance for price just not there anymore compared to new tech electronic vehicles for lower prices. Similar to buying a flip phone when smart phones came out. Nostalgia maybe?
@enthusiastdriven
Жыл бұрын
I think nostalgia certainly plays a role here but I’m not buying a car for solely performance. Im buying it for its soul. A soul which comes from its naturally aspirated v8 that screams and puts a smile on your face when you floor it. Tech wise it’s very much on par with the very best on the market today. So I disagree. It’s not like buying a flip phone in a smartphone era.

The corvette has too much heritage and too big a following to lose its cool factor.
