What are your thoughts on the C6 Grand Sport?
Dude that was an amazing and awesome review of the driving experience! Felt like i was in the drivers seat in the beginning with all of the extra feels and sounds... ill be ready in about 2 years to either get a 2002-03 C5 Z06 or a C6 GS (2012-13, they have better OEM seats) wider track like the Z06. Been watching reviews of both. Love the pop up headlights on the C5, but the wider body/track of the C6 GS is smoking hot. I know the interior of the C6 is better then C5. I’m probably answering my own question here, I’m leaning towards the C6 GS, but want your opinion. Of course the C5 Z06 is a better bang for the buck. I wont be tracking either car. Have you ever driven a C5 Z06 ? Thanks and have a great day
@@stephendibari5010 I unfortunately never had a chance to go in a C5 ZO6 so I can't give my opinion about that one. The flip up headlights are a forgotten feature and very cool. As far as looks? I dig the "notched" look of the C5 ZO6, but the C6 GS / ZO6 is just drop dead gorgeous on the outside.
@@TheDutchTexan I agree .. It may come down to $ which is typically the deciding factor. When the time is right I will see what is available. looking for a good clean well preserved version with less than 50 K miles
I loved the heck out of this review. What a great job with the sound no major distortion and you could really hear that baby rip. I found myself shifting with you and grunting after each shift hahaha. I miss the fk out of my vet winter winter go away lol.. Thank you sir for this it helps me through the winter time.
The creak that you are hearing comes from the targa top. Periodically, you have to remove the top and clean the weatherstripping and lubricate it as well as the latches. After that it's as quite as brand new.
I've had my 2011 GS since new in 2010. That's the only creak I've had.
How many muffler cut scenes , this dude : yes
definitely a good choice to learn driving a stick with. Plus look at the size of that trunk. You can fit so much weed and moonshine in there
Looool love it
Everyone knows weed stays up front
LMFAOOO
@@jakeryan5509 you don't want that there in case the HP set up a DUI checkpoint
@@pontiacGXPfan oh yeah don’t worry I said that a year ago and since I’ve had 2 court dates for having an ounce+ on me, both were dropped but yeah now it’s under the spare tire in the trunk😭
There’s a switch on the seats to close in the sides or make wider. You can get that bucket seat feel by closing them
Well done man! I absolutely loved it! That was such a fun day for sure. That car will live on through this review, I am very happy we got to do it. Thanks again
I feel very fortunate to have been able to drive it! Glad it lived up to your expectations. That's all I ever do it for really!
Car looks great 👍
Lookin for one for the wifey.
Her dream b4 50th bday.
It's happening...
White w/tiffany blue calipers badging etc...
Good vid. Cheers from an AZ neighbor.
I hope you find the right vette for her! Thank you for enjoying the video and leaving a comment!
love the car and those pipes, sounds great and you seem not to mind to put your foot in it thanks for sharing
Als always thank the owners! They allow me to shoot the car and they dictate what I can do. And low and behold, they all say SEND IT!
I love watching you have fun driving the living crap
Out of her. I’m on my 4th C6(3 convertibles-1 std, 2 GS & a hardtop Z06) & they are awesome vehicles. Super fun and they have all been reliable except for my ‘05… first yr curse. Otherwise, incredible. I did change the head unit to a Bluetooth/CarPlay capable unit and that is an incredible upgrade.
Love the sound
As do I, a vette always sounds good full tilt!
To eliminate the drone, install the mild to wild switch to close the valves on the NPP exhaust. When I'm cruising on the freeway I keep mine closed (unless I want them open) on long trips quite is better than the drone.
I’m gunna get my c6 corvette in March or April I’m so excited can’t wait it’s going to be my 40th birthday present to myself corvette warehouse in Dallas is the place to go
It’s going to be fun man!
Badass Vette!
Great video!!!
Thank you!
What is the meaning of life? hard to answer. however philosophical questions are left behind when you put a V8 in front of you and its entire symphony of cavalry bringing the state of bliss.
Is that a special version that has the red interior and suede steering wheel?
Awesome Ride bro !! Love da C6 👍🏿
It’s your video that inspired me to by the C6 GS. She’s a Convertible with only 6500 miles.
That is LOW LOW mileage! I bet it is absolutely cherry and bone stock?
@@TheDutchTexan it's bone stock ! Honestly I would like to do headers and an intake that's it.
Plenty of bolt ons out there for the platform, that’s for sure! It’s plenty quick out of the box already though!
@@jaybarr8098 Kooks headers & catted x-pipe.
💪
License plate holder?
I didn't know that about the 3:59 frames!
You’re clearly having too much fun. 🤣
I don't think there is such a thing! I was definitely feeling this car!
Is that stock exhaust ?
I’m a Dutch man too, subscribed 👍🏽
Welcome! Always cool to have more people from the old country here!
@@TheDutchTexan My Father is from Rotterdam. I’m born here but it’s like going home back home in the NL.
You can get the same thrill driving an old Yugo because you didn't know if you were gonna die in it....lol
Cool review! Sounds amazing! How much does one of these cars run now a days?
Depends heavily on mileage and owner history.
aobut 10k more then last year ....
I was looking at c6 grand sports for anywhere from 30k to 45k, 35k for one with 64k miles. 41k for one with 24k miles.
@@johnj05 I just bought a 2010 GS convertible. 6500 miles . Cost was 46k
very nice!!
I enjoyed this one!
@@TheDutchTexan ..I could tell by the look on your face.
Most of the cars I drive I like, but some just tickle my fancy. This one? Definitely on that list!
Excellent A1.TOPNOTCH
I have a aqua blue c4 but want a c6 to keep her company 😂
Not at all a bad idea…
so bad ass !
Agreed!
Base 2010 manual for me. Z06 didnt feel like it was worth 15k more at the time ...and it still isnt lol
My man....that laugh tho
Hooo Hooo Hooo Hahhhh Hahhh Hahhh
That's what a bit of HP will do!!!
Indeed
Own a 2008 z51 drop top 3lt. Yes yes yes.
I wonder how the drop top handles compared to the coupe.
121 & 75?
Yup, hes in the frisco area… Me and my friends see him at the south lake C&C all the time as well as a few others in the area
Superlube the top. Creak managed
I'm a bit late but can a 6'7 guy fit in one of those? Thanks in advance!
I honestly don’t know. Best thing to do is go to a local dealer that has one. Or better yet, go to a car show. Bound to be a few there and if you ask they’ll probably let you!
Check out C & S corvette channel. Lyle, the owner is 6' 6"
Dunno if ya bought one yet but I’m 6’7 too and drive my c6 GS everyday the sun is out, very comfortable car imo
My ND Miata got totaled. I’m either looking at the c6 GS or or a scat pack. Tough decisions
If you got a family? Scat. If it's just you? GS no doubt.
C6 all day. Scat pack sounds and pulls amazing but is soooo heavy and way less reliable.
I’m so torn between this and a C7 Z51 for my next daily. C6 GS is bulletproof and priced the same but C7 has a waaaay better interior. On the other hand, C7 auto had so many issues and not sure I want to commute around Boston with a manual again. I don’t care what anyone says, manuals are great but stop-and-go rush hour traffic with a manual blows 😩.
the c7 stingray and grand sport auto are fine, a z06 auto you’ll have overheating issues and the z06 is tuned for quarter mile times so 5th gear bogs down
I had both a Grand Sport C7 and a Z06 both automatics with no issues when I had them. C7 is a better car than the C6 but the C6 is a much better value cost wise imo. I almost always let the autos shift themselves because they did it so well. The shifts are so fast in auto when you nail it. A Z06 C7 is way too much power for a daily imo. The C7 can barely put down Z06 power.
@@cstraley agreed on all points. I ended up with a 13 C6 GS. The body style just spoke to me, color and spec was perfect and the interior felt a bit less cramped. But I will say the trans acts a lot like a cvt so I have it in sport or grabbing the paddles most of the time unless I’m on the highway on the way to work in the morning. I might consider having the trans tuned because in regular Drive the rev hang is obnoxious and it will not upshift lol. Obviously the interior is dated but for some reason she was the one. Corvettes rule 🤘🏻
@@cstraley I had a c7, and the front was very nice but the rear wasn't for me. I think the c6 is still better looking in every 360 turn.
@@cdsantx I agree.
Dutch? As in netherlands or?
Yessir! I am still a Dutch citizen!
@@TheDutchTexan kan het zien maar niet horen je bent zo tr horen aardig gewend daar. Goede review trouwens👍
Ik sprak van kinds af aan al Amerikaans Engels eigenlijk. Van GIJOE geleerd! En bedankt, ik vind het echt leuk om meer Nederlanders op het kanaal te zien af en toe!
Is it headers on there
Yes and x pipe.
Hey ... review my 2020 KARMA GT... WHEN EVER YOU CAN.. SHOOT ME A MSGE.. ALSO have a 2016 CHALLENGER,.... HELLCAT.... LET ME KNOW
Always interested, do you have an email or instagram?
Hey cheer up why dontcha!! Lol!!
What are you on about?
My Lexus LS460 has 386 hp and will get me from Chicago to Denver in exactly the same time minus the headache and PITA. Just curious... Why must a 430 hp car be stiff, loud, and bolstered to the point of extreme discomfort?
Different cars, no comparison. Someone buying a vette isn’t going to buy a grand tourer Lexus 4 door.
It"s a sports car not a luxury touring car
@10:58...damn bro, not fast? What is your definition of quick? A C6 corvette will still beat 99% of all cars on the road...
Hahaha, I've driven cars upwards to 1000whp so that skews your perspective a bit!
I say corvettes are slow. But I ride 1000cc crotch rockets, so I know what fast really is lol
@@jackkern5125 I had a GSXR 1000 back in 2011 or so…it was definitely a fun bike.
