    the C8 is great. And I agree it is a lux sports car. I have the same interior, did not realize how great it looks on film

      I was on the fence getting this one due to the reflection issue but I love red with a tan interior. With polarized sun glasses the reflection is a non issue now

    Back 1984 a buddy and I were heading to PG…stopped in Cache Creek about 9:00 pm. We decided we had to be in PG before last call at the bars. We made it, just! Driving an 84 VW GTI…thunderstorm and heavy rain north of Clinton. Blew through Hixon at about 120 kmh back in the days of minimal police patrols! Great fun!

    I have a 2022 3LT HTC Z51 in red mist metallic with the same interior. You must get a lot of compliments? I had my windows tinted as well as the tail lights - looks great. Where did you leave from? Be interested in your Corsa install as I am thinking of doing the same. I have the competition seats which are not very comfortable on long trips.

    No rock chips in the windshield, a nice bullseye right in your field of view 😂

    The NPP makes a difference on the sound: sport and track modes.

    all that smoke reminds me of driving across to New South Wales in Nov. 2019 for a model boat club event and this was just as the huge bushfires that raged right thru till Jan 2020 started. As we got closer to Bathurst (home of the Great race the 1000km V8 Supercars race) the smoke just kept getting thicker the further east we got...very scary

      Ugh... I remember hearing about those fires. Terrible

    That ought to give the C8 quite a workout!!

    even though I live in Adelaide I still hate traffic lights...!! LOL I grew up on Kangaroo Island and there was absolutely no traffic lights in the late 80s/early 90s...even now the only lights are for a couple of school crossings.....

    👏🏾 I'm new to your channel. Do you have PPF on your C8?

    I had a c5 and the wind wasn’t bad.

    Is that an aftermarket spoiler? If so what brand?

    What was your best MPG on the highway? Let us know

  • @TheLeanWeen
    @TheLeanWeen Před rokem

    Is your front splitter and black side rocker piece from the factory? Or aftermarket part

  • @nizguy
    @nizguy Před rokem

    Yes, HTC is the only way to go

    Too much reflection from the dipped interior. That’s why lack is the better choice.

    • @mikesgarage6331
      @mikesgarage6331  Před rokem

      Yeah, that was a bit of an issue for me at first but polarized glasses make it disappear.

  • @Forever.Remain.Nameless

    Do you have the performance exhaust?

    • @mikesgarage6331
      @mikesgarage6331  Před rokem +1

      No I don't. But I ordered the corsa extream

    • @Forever.Remain.Nameless
      @Forever.Remain.Nameless Před rokem

      ​@@mikesgarage6331 tht was my plan as well but ended up getting the performance exhaust. You did right...
