    I own a 2014 Stingray LT1 A6 bought it with 18k miles for $38k before the prices went crazy. Currently have 31k miles I drive my cars. My car is a full bolt on car with an A&A supercharger kit and water meth injection plus E50 plus LT4 pump and injectors n DSX low side pump as well. Makes 622whp n 570trq on 8lbs of boost. Even with the mods still well under the cost of a C7ZO6 or a C8 & this car would gap either of those. This is my 3rd Corvette and I have had zero issues with this car even with modifications car is fun and pretty fast. The LS3 is a hard motor to beat if I had it to do over again I would have kept my C6 Grand Sport and put a blower on it. Would have been way more affordable to boost and make fast. Just my 2 cents great cars either way

      I plan to put a a&a kit on my 14 sting or a Maggie, with 8psi just headers can u daily drive the car since the lt1 internals aren’t made for boost so was wondering how long have u been riding boosted for ?

    I personally own a 2014 C7 Z51 M7, and i could not be happier with it, and mark my words: this is the last true traditional Corvette, with front engine, manual transmission and rwd, this car in 10 years will be chased more than gold, just like what happened with the 458, the last N/A V8 Ferrari, doubled is value in just few years.

      Thank you so much for this comment! I’m currently looking at the exact same car currently deciding whether to buy it or not… the only hesitation is that I’ve heard a few people say it has rear electronic diff issues but that may only happen to a few of them. I definitely will buy this car now! Thank you so much!

      I was on the fence until I read the comments from you guys. I figured I can buy one with extremely low miles so I can drive it for a while and watch the value increase. Plus having a manual C7 looks like a fun drive.

    I got my 2014 corvette the first year it came out, and I have performance Pirelli tires, I've improved the cold air, and it has a performance tune. It will do under 4 seconds 0 to 60 times all day long and also do mid high 11-second quarter miles with ease.

    in 2019 I bought my 2014 A6 Z51 3LT with 5,000 miles in showroom condition and Mag Shocks. I gladly paid $45,000, and today have 10,000 miles and only needed a new battery for repairs. I have looked at the C8 but not ready yet, I like the E Ray Hybrid but would rather Have E Ray put on my 2014 for 100HP FWD drive and with AWD 0-60 in 2 seconds as a Hybrid. I have yet to find any In Hub Wheel motors with a turn key installation retrofit, but when I do I think my 2014 to take me to the grave easily. I love it. Dennis

    Thanks for the year info on transmissions. Researching before I buy, looking for Lime Green Flash, found two; a flood car in TX(from FL) or a 3LT one owner in OH (manual OK but, leather on dash can bubble. Looks like I'm keeping my Impala.

    I bought a 2014 C7 Z51 2LT in early January 2024 with 11k miles on it! I think the styling of this car is timeless and I also wanted a raw weekend sports car to play around with that was still "analog" yet provided some modern day luxuries like lumbar support, touch screen, great looking heads up display, upgraded speaker system with HD radio, built proof engine and is sexy as hell despite being nearly 10 years old. The C7 checked off all of those boxes and couldn't be happier to own this car. Great video!

    You can get it to do 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds and over 120 in the quarter mile,if you know what your doing, and know how to drive the car properly.
    I know, because I've got a 2017 Corvette Stingray Z51 with the 7 speed manual transmission.

    What do you think would be the better choice between a 2014 Stingray and a 2015 Lexus RC-F?

    • @ElvisCarReviews
      @ElvisCarReviews  Před rokem +5

      Good question, the stingray is faster, looks cooler, will hold its value better, is lighter, drives better on the track, will turn more heads
      The RC F is more reliable, will outlast the stingray.
      It all depend on what you want to buy it for.
      If you want something practical reliable and also give you that sporty look the RCF is a great option
      If you want something cooler, an actual sport’s car something to race on the weekend and actually win
      The stingray is your choice.
