- Zero to 60 in less than three seconds pairs well with looks that would fit a Ferrari.

The Chevy Corvette looks good at seventy years old. Now a mid-engine sports car, it keeps a big, American V8 engine behind the seats, rather than in front. Performance is better than ever, with a zero to 60 mph sprint coming on in less than three seconds. But how is the Corvette as a winter sports car? Chevrolet fitted this one with winter tires for New England, and Cliff Atiyeh sees just how much heat he can enjoy from that powerful V8.

The entire C8 series is turning into one of the most spectacular series of sports cars EVER. Its the limit handling and chassis, and many are saying the same thing.
Bought my 2023 C8 in black flash. It’s been the best experience ever
Carbon Flash 👍
My HTC Z51 2LT comes in 2 weeks. Been waiting 5 months to find the right one. Stoked!
One of the best reviews on the C8 I have seen. I have a 2023 Torch Red Coupe 2 LT with Z51 package, and I did wait 1 year for it but worth the wait. I am so glad it has the great 8 speed automatic
probably would not bought it otherwise. Love the car and get many complements on it.
C7 Vette had a sequential automatic, C8 has dual clutch, really different transmissions all together.
Exactly! Hard to take what he is saying seriously when he doesn’t even know what he is driving!
@@That_Corvette_Guy this is the kind of demographic Chevrolet's trying to target with the C8 in the first place: the ones who don't know anything about the kind of car they're so impressed with
@@pontiacGXPfanstill impresses actual car rams tho 😅
@@LeopardShark21 if they can afford it that's one thing. actually driving it without driving like a fucking moron is another
As an owner of a 23 Z51 coupe I can attest to your comments and opinions about the C8. 6 months and 5k miles into ownership and no major issues with build quality or drive train operation. If you want a hot rod to burn rubber and do donuts get a stick C7, they are a beast. If you want the ultimate all around American made driving experience try a C8
It's not American-made when copycatting lameass European cars
@@pontiacGXPfan mid-engine layouts are from the 60s, Ford GT40, Pantera and of course the Europeans. Wind tunnel analysis and physics are universal, you just can't keep a front engine design competitive. C7 took it as far as possible.
@@dcdanger6151 tell that to the engineers of the c5
@@pontiacGXPfan Engineers are the ones that are applying the technology and principles developed which resulted in the mid engine format
@@dcdanger6151 the monkey see, monkey do format
Thanks for the great review. Your enjoyment of this car really came through.
3600 lbs may be light today but my 2001 Corvette Convertible weighs 3100 lbs THAT's LIGHT and with the 400 lightly modded horsepower it has it feels even lighter but yes I do love the C8
I miss the cargurus comparisons please do more, those are the best videos.
3:19 that’s the flat-plane crank for ya. Immediate throttle response
Some of the clowns commenting just can't get it thru their heads that the substantial performance increase required a mid engine or a large heavy battery. I enjoy my C8 more than my Ferrari, Viper, or 911 Turbo 😊. If you don't like it, buy something else.
Great video ; I’m devoted to one of these cars as of now ; I need one
Even at 100 grand I would prefer this over a used European equivalent like a Ferrari 360. You can drive the hell out of it and at the end of the day it's a Chevy. It's classy enough without being pretentious. Personally I love it in orange without any rear spoiler. Chevy engineers knocked it out of the park on this one!
Tell that to the zo6 owners who’s engine has blown on them. But hey it’s a Chevy
@@bigneutron77 that's just a bunch of knuckleheads not following Chevrolet on breaking the car in, people like stradman.
Hands down this car has more bang for your buck than any other. Period.
The mission statement at the reveal for the C8 Chevorlet Corvette was the $60,000 base supercar; so to a certain extent, it’s very disappointing to see the msrp of this non-ZO6 with an appearance package costing $100,000.
Base price is still under $65k.....if you spec it out to over 100 thts on you😂
where can i order one?
A dealership
You’re right about one thing….it’s a great car but about almost everything else, you obviously don’t know what you’re talking about.
Not available in a manual transmission is a deal breaker for me. It’s lazy driving & sad. I get that it’s more marketable as an automatic, but one should at least have the option especially at the $80k+ price mark. I also would have loved to see an anniversary model that really pay homage to the classics & it’s history. I do like the styling but a refined & updated version of the classic body style would’ve been cool. Being a mid engine now, the signature side vents are now behind the door & look more like sound holes from sub boxes, lol! 70 freaking years, give me a STINGRAY CORVETTE with nostalgia & modern accents. Maybe if I got to drive one I’d change my mind. I’m currently an Audi driver because American cars have become so lackluster & not made for someone who really can DRIVE!
Audi: the Ultimate Driving Machine.
I sold my C7 manual and will have a C8 Z06 next year. I do hope the raw power of the Z will help me somewhat overcome the thrill of rowing. Based on the C8 Z reviews, I think I’ll be fine. We shall see……
@@tgchris2222 I’d definitely be interested in your updated opinion when you get your new Vette! I know automatics have come a long way but theres just no comparison when you want grab some gears😉 I’m not one to drive sports car just so I can cruise & sip my coffee, lol!
You need to drive one
@@graysenfox3600 100%😉
Selling this exact car brand new. Anyone interested?
Doesn’t even crack 500…GM “😅”
I just hate the way the dash is pointed to the driver. Basically Chevy said fck the passenger lol
It’s a fiberglass disaster
What the hell happened to the corvette, think people need to remember where we live and stop trying to turn everything Foreign, queers! AMERICAN MUSCLE!
And it's not a stingray it's a spider!
What this guy doesnt know about cars could fill a library. The car has a DCT, and he compares that to a C7 automatic. Unreal. And since when is 3600 pounds light? Seriously?? Total fluff review.
Interior is terrible.
GM stopped producing an icon, a classic that has been manufactured since 1953, that is, a car with its own identity to manufacture what now? A bizarre copy of LaFerrari. This is unfortunate. The Chevrolet Corvette died. Since GM likes to copy Ferrari, GM could copy the Ferrari Omologata or Ferrari Roma and thus re-manufacture the Classic Corvette with an engine in the front as it always has been. Mid-engine Corvette is the same as a front-engined Porsche 911, in other words, ridiculous.
so what do you drive?
Nope, Chevy has had its own racing program for decades now. GM BENCHMARKED a 458, and GMs product is far better and cheaper. The idea that benchmarking is something new is ridiculous. The car has literally eliminated a complete USED SPORT CAR market for consideration. The question is WHO would buy a USED 458 OVER A C8? You simply must like lesser cars or want to wear a 458 like some man purse.
@@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 I wouldn't have anything against the Corvette C8 if GM had deigned to respect the car's traditional consumers and kept the traditional front-engined Corvette also in production, a sort of Corvette Classic. The two models could coexist naturally, each in its own space. And my favorite isn't even the C7 Stingray. My favorite is a previous generation C6, I think that car is beautiful.
As a former C1 and C3 owner I totally understand your point of view. As good as the earlier cars were, Corvette was getting a reputation as a pipe and slippers dad car. Porsche went mid-engine with the Boxster and Cayman, knowing full well that was a superior drivetrain arrangement. But they kept the 911 around because of the cult following it still enjoys today. So they ended up detuning the Boxster and Cayman so as not to outshine the Granddaddy 911. Corvette had to evolve and as noted above Chevy did in fact benchmark the Ferrari 458. I've driven both cars and I would pick the C8 all day long. We can expect a hybrid in full Electric versions using this platform. This was an ace move considering how twitchy environmental regulators are these days. Chevy's playing a long game. I'm just happy GM didn't kill off the Corvette altogether. The bean counters lost and the engineers won. Well done! Try the C8 and I can assure you it will be a come to Jesus moment. And it's true: who in their right mind would buy a used Ferrari 458 with its astronomical keeping costs and honestly inferior engineering over a brand new C8? Don't know if you've been to a Ferrari dealer but it is not a pleasant experience. Ford spanked Ferrari once with the gt40. Now it's Chevy's turn!
@@sprezzatura8755 I trust you when you say the C8 is a good car. But like the Porsche 911, GM could have kept the Corvette Classic with a front engine. As for the hybrid or electric or electrified Corvette, I have to disagree. Let's continue talking about Porsche when it has just opened its first e-fuel factory in Chile, a synthetic fuel based on Hydrogen. I have to tell you that Porsche will be happier as long as GM continues to imitate TESLA by producing only 100% electric cars. GM is going to go down the same hole as TESLA soon, which lost 70% of the company's value in the last year by betting on 100% electric cars and the mess of Elon Musk buying Twitter. Toyota already tests a Yaris, a Corolla and a Corolla Cross that burn hydrogen instead of gasoline. Cummins already sells trucks that burn hydrogen instead of diesel. The future is in hydrogen-based synthetic fuels. This path that GM is following in imitation of TESLA and its 100% electric cars will lead GM to a single clear and certain destination: bankruptcy.
Boring review! 😴
A car review isn’t meant as entertainment or a sales pitch
Is it just me or does this guy seem like he’s going Hollywood , I don’t think he’s genuinely happy with this vehicle , great acting skills
