Good review. The surprising part of these cars is how comfortable they are with the mag ride suspension. For a car that handles as good as it does I''m surprised at the cruising comfort.
I'm glad you enjoy it rematch works good with high rpm upshifts too but after owning one for years they have their share fare of electronic problems when I took mine out of hibernation this year the inside thermometer shows 3 dots the heads up display is only half working this car has been very well maintained I'm so over that car it's going back into hibernation unless my daughter wants it I'm done with it
I think they’ve started to go up a bit now. I have a few more months until I can get mine. Let’s hope the releases of other cars keep the manual corvette gem underwater for a bit. Do you know when they’re deciding whether or not there will be a manual C8?
From my sources, it looks like there will not be a manual C8. Honestly though, I am not that disappointed. After driving the C8, the dual clutch is phenomenal and I did not find myself wishing it was a manual. Honestly, a manual may ruin the experience of that car, which is really tough for me to say. Plus, with the layout of the car, they would have to develop their own manual, which would cost a ton of money, and with less and less people opting for manuals, it would make no sense to go through all that trouble
It's amazing how worried you are about losing your license speeding out in the middle of nowhere (no offense) while in cities people find it ok to speed like demons on residential streets with speed traps and cameras on every square mile.
A few reasons why, actually. The area I filmed this video in is known for police presence, and they are very strict about speed limits there. Also, it was a dealer's car, so I always like to treat them with respect and essentially how I would want the dealership to drive it if I was buying it. Lastly, everything is on camera, so if either the dealership or the police were to watch my video, I don't want to cause any issues. In my personal car off camera, I absolutely have some fun in the middle of nowhere, but I never condone stuff like I see people do in cities where they weave in between cars and put peoples lives in danger.
Got you, all said driving a car like this fast at times is kind of a necessity if you want to keep it in tip top shape. But driving calmly was the right thing to do when driving a car you don't own. It's kind of weird police is so strict in places like this and in urban areas one can see so many dangerous violations and the only thing they do to stop it is a repetitive fine without much consequence otherwise.
Good catch! That was the first one ever posted. however, the yellow corvette video was filmed before the Hellcat, because I was not sure i was going to make a channel, so when I posted the Hellcat I started to post older videos that i had saved.
@@raceboy9517 I try my best, but sometimes its tough to keep on top of them. Typically once a week I will sit at my computer and read all of them and respond/like them so people know I am here. If its just one I will type on my phone, like I am doing now lol
Question I have a 14 stingray and when I’m In First gear and going like 14 mph and push the clutch in to put in neutral something feels like it’s loose or wobbles. When I pick up the speed up on first to switch to second everything is normal. Am I tripping? Or wtf
I am working on trying to film one soon! As I am sure you know, they are backordered for over 2 years, so it is pretty rare to see a brand new one in inventory, but I know a few people who have one or are ordering one, so if we get one in used inventory or if my friends let me, I will film one for you.

That car really is sensational

@@Carguy1999Reviews So in a few years we’ll be watching the corvettes catch up to the vipers in price. Thanks

Hey, i want to buy one with manual. How it will fit with my 5.6 feet? Is it a problem?
You'll be just fine in it, as it's generally a smaller fit in the cabin and the seats move vertically.
This kid sounds like hes in the 4th grade. Lucky kid :)
To be honest, it wasn't that long ago🤣. I was born in 1999, so definitely one of the youngest reviewers out there!
Damn, I want that
How do you test drive these please explain 😰
I work for the dealership as part of their marketing team
Actually it was a challenger hellcat.

Same here. Normal for the manual I'd say.
how about the c8 corvette?

Man I don't like anything newer than the C6 as far as vettes go
Blew it out of the ballpark. Aka, hit it out of the water…
