I drive a Miata and multiple other daily’s that can be considered performance cars. But when I drove my buddies 200k mile LS2 C6 I felt my heartrate increase and my blood pressure increase, the spirit of America ran through my feet and right hand as I shifted through it.
When I drove this car, George Washington himself whispered in my ear "leaf springs"
Yo i have a max budget of about 20k and what something fun but also daily drivable im 6’2 what would you reccomend?
@@reynos8381 hmmm, I mean there's so many in that price range. If you only had to pick one car then I would recommend a hot hatch like a GTI or Focus ST. If you live down south and can get away with RWD year round then maybe a Corvette, BRZ, Miata, or 370z could be good options. I think it all depends what you're looking for!
@@reynos8381 If you want comfort with a little bit of oomf, a v6 6-speed accord is fun too
@@jv6miata rather drive a kia soul
Picked up my 2009 last September and fulfilled a childhood dream. Nothing beats the rumble and burbles! Hauls ass and gets tons of compliments. They’re great cars!
I've always had a crush on the C6. Maybe it's cuz I was growing up when they were the "new cool car"
They're so good haha, I'm definitely a fan after driving this one
Why is the Corvette wave "Boomer?" What happened to car culture? That's a sign of respect. God bless all the Corvette drivers I see every day. You guys rock! Oh, I'm Gen X.
2008 C6 Z06 is the best and first factory race car! Jetsteam Blue is the greatest color!!!!! Aluminum frame, no power passenger seat for reduced weight. Carbon fiber fenders and roof! Get one and you will love it!!!!❤
Great video guys please post up more C6 content. I love my 2011 C6 Grand Sport six speed manual.
Still loving my 2008 c6 in Jetstream Blue…nothing a big noisy v-8!
I drive a 2010 C6 with LS3 engine and Borla Axel back exaust. Love it.
Witch Borla? Any drone issues?
ATAK. No drone issues.@@ericruggles4631
@@ericruggles4631 ATAK. No issues.
Our car choices are so similar. Currently an EN owner, also a 370z fan boy.
My next car will be an old c6 corvette. Trying to get a high mileage one for cheap. Throw it on a good set of shocks/coilovers, rebuild the suspension and ride it until the engine and trans go. Then i can build the engine.
Wouldn't be a track build, just my garage kept manual v8 car to go on nice drives with my girlfriend. I'll definitely keep the EN as a dual duty daily/track car and the c6 would be my garaged car.
Dude EN and a C6 would be an elite combination haha, that would be amazing!
Might be an okay plan. Much less so if the Corvette has MRC. In these cases coil-overs provide dubious benefit. You should wait on your plans until you've driven the Corvette. You might find shooting the parts-canon at a Corvette
Thanks for the video.. just bought my first Vette.
I’m so sorry I sold my 2009 Z51 to Carvana in May of 2022.
I had the hope in 2022 that I would get a ZO6 allocation, but 2 years plus later….. None Yet.
Only had 7022 miles on it, but I did get $35,000 for it. It was in pristine condition. Someone got a great C6!. That LS3 was just so great! It seemed to pull and pull and pull! MSRP was around $58,000 in the showroom in April of 2009. I was surprised it remained in the dealership showroom from November 2008 until I bought it for around $52,000 on May 5, 2009. It was my retirement present to myself. That Crystal Red Tintcoat was a great color IMO too! Only problem I had with it was that the automatic transmission would get stuck in Park and there was a TH-cam Hack to free it (Although it didn’t work every time.).
Finally, the dealership where I got my 2022 C8 Z51 HTC just cut the “safety device” for the Transmission as a permanent fix. I was told that finding a replacement part was no hope of obtaining one. They just aren’t out there! T or F?
Love that V8 sound 🔥🔥
I swapped C7 seats a 2013 steering wheel & LG Motorsports coilovers into my C6…….feels like an entirely different car
Best performance car for the money. Can’t beat a LS3 and a TR6060! (Just saw this was a 07, so LS2 is also nice lol. If you’re looking at a C6 tho I’d highly recommend gunning for a 08-13 as the LS3 is superior)
The ls3 is better but the biggest improvements are the tr6060, and a nicely upgraded steering rack that feels a fair amount better.
The ls3 is not that superior.
@@mogulme6190 It’s not *that* superior…but it is superior lol
@@backyardboosters9128 can you talk more about the steering rack improvements? most people ive heard say its not a noticable difference
9:09 “yessss” 💅💅💅
I really don’t understand why people call C6 interiors outdated. The car was designed 20 plus years ago. A lot better than lambo’s and Ferrari’s of those years in comparison as well.
Because there isn't enough sparkly metal to satisfy the tastes of many modern consumers. Amongst this crowd, no consideration is made of a car's weight, and bigger is considered "better." Some people know cars, and some people don't.
soft close is for when the windows are up
Or not. More misinformation. Just say "no" to rumor, innuendo and deceit.
What kind of exhaust
Thats a cool looking car right there. Oh wait...
Does he put premium gas on it?
What type of exhaust on it? Doesn’t sound exactly stock…corsa, borla?
Corsa axle back exhaust 🤙
@@pattyboi More evidence that Corsa exhausts are $$$ down the drain. There is likely the perfect exhaust out there somewhere, I just don't know what it is, but if I were a betting man, I'd say no matter how bad or good that exhaust is, it is likely grossly overpriced.
No all are targas, there are convertibles too
Funny, I said the same thing in my comment. I'm not super sure these owners know as much about Corvettes as the video title would suggest.
Who did the Harmonic balancer?
Anyone can fix a glove box or parking break etc. deerrrr
You guys were roommates? This Corvette is "currently" a Base model. I hate to break it to you, Chief, but this car will remain a "Base model" "forever," or at least until it is recycled into a Kia. Not every Corvette is a "Targa." Some are convertibles. I think there might also be some C3 t-top models, but don't quote me on that. The biggest issue is "harmonic balancer?" NOT. It is also NOT the most expensive repair. Not even close. Thanks for the video, but it leaves me feeling like I've learned nothing, and actually lost a couple of IQ points. I'm not slamming your guys. You made a video, and I haven't, so you're better than me at having produced and uploaded "zero" (0) videos. Corvettes are easy? The gear box is easy? Any more disinformation you want to launch into cyber space? You know LLM AI are being "trained" by Internet data, right? Then there are human viewers too. "High 20's" or "30" MPG is "luck?" What "luck?" It's all about the driver, and also not having a bunch of uphills or headwinds. Gears aren't called being "long," they're termed "tall." Look of C7 is "good?" Ick. All those Transformer-style angles? Not my taste. And whoever called you "crazy" for driving the car in the winter sounds like a crazy person to me. I don't get this obsession with garaging the car int he winter time. The car has windshield wipers. It isn't made of sugar. Much of the body won't rust out due to road salt. You've got traction control and all those other computerized nannies. With the exception of how low the car is and possible puddles or road damage due to rain, I figure the Corvette is likely much safer than most cars on the road in wintertime. I'm going to stop commenting now, because I'm going to stop listening to your video. Thanks for the video. I'd grade it a "C." Too much fluff, misinformation, and not enough practical commentary wrapped into a tight video package. Again, you're way ahead of me,, but even you have a bit of room for improvement. You're already superior to 99.8% of the other drivers out there by your Corvette ownership. Why not keep that paradigm going and up your information game? Just a thought, from a guy that has put literally no videos on youtube. Keep the rubber side down. Oh, never mind. I made the mental error of thinking for a split second that aren't driving a Corvette. It's those other American car companies that have 4 & 5 letters in their name. With their sketchy suspensions, those owners have to be careful to keep the rubber side down. You'd have to be awfully ambitious, or incredibly unlucky, to flip a Corvette. In my experience, the C6 just HATES rolling over, and is more than happy to let you spectate at the other powerful cars that seem to love showing their bellies to the sky. Cheers.
The C7 Z06 first Gen that was targa and also convertible option in a Z06.
