  • The C8 Corvette has been a performance hit and Chevrolet has brought even more. Poweing the Z06 is a 5.5L V8 pumping out 670HP! On the outside you will find a wider setup over tge Stingray. On the inside you will be surrounded with Leather & carbon fiber.

    I personally own a C8 Z06 and I’ve never owned a corvette before. They just never interested me because of the other cars I’m used to driving. This car tho had the interior quality, looks and most importantly performance of all of my other cars. The new Z06 is the best car you can buy right now for the performance in my opinion and is amazing to drive!

    Congrats on the north of 1 million subs Joe, lot of hard work on your part. Regarding the Corvette, I feel like they are falling into the trap that Audi did with the R8 in that they are pricing it out of the "affordable" market. These MSRP at what 150k with options? Add 100k of dealer markups and this sits in Lambo pricing. The C8 sold like hotcakes because it was sub 100k (well without dealer markups...). 100k seems to be the golden zone for semi affordable performance cars. Once they start selling for north of 150k they are realistically out of reach of a big chunk of the market. Acura did the same thing with the new gen NSX. If they could have squeezed this in at 100k (before options) this would be a barnburner.

      For a mid-engine supercar loaded with carbon fiber and a premium interior along with being a hard-top convertible at only 70 extra lbs I’d say that this is an absolute bargain. Way cheaper than ANYTHING else you could get that remotely compares. There are plenty of sub-$100k new corvette models available to buy. This is the top of the line model. It’s not supposed to be THAT affordable for what it is. Base corvettes go for half the price or less. If everyone in the market for a corvette could afford the top-of-the-line model then that’s what they’d get, as is with every other type of vehicle, generally speaking.

I have a Porsche 911 Turbo S in my garage which is faster than the Z06, except on the track. :) The best thing about this car is the sound!!!! I am concerned about longevity of flat plane crank engine. Oh well it has to be the best Corvette ever. I have a 2013 Z06 427. Thanks for the amazing video!!!

    I saw this same Z06 spec Sunday. It was coming around a tight corner a bit fast, but it took that curve so flat. Oh man, this thing is epic. It looks so much better than the regular Vette. That extra width and revised front fascia really transforms the Vette. It’s a buy!! I’m not crapping on a Porsche, but that GT3 optioned out will cost you $230K-$250K. A optioned out Z06 with dealer markup will be $165K-$170K out the door.

    People will say "what do you need that much power for when you're going to mostly drive it on the street?" I will compare owning a high horsepower car to self-defense. I can personally say that when you train in self-defense, no matter what discipline, it provides a natural sense of confidence that you can handle yourself in practically any situation. I think the same can be said with sports cars or sedans with high horsepower. It provides that sense of confidence when driving and that enhances the driving experience you may otherwise never experience. Love that Chevy created the most badass V8 vehicle ever.

    I believe the C2 and C6 will always be my favorite Corvettes, but the Z06 version of the C8 is quite a machine. It sounds like the Mach 5, and "Go, Speed Racer!" plays in my head every time that flat plane V8 is opened up. That theme song definitely belongs on the soundtrack, along with "Batdance" by Prince, and "I Can't Drive 55" by Sammy Hagar.

    The Michelin tires have a special foam core that helps to dissipate impacts on rough surfaces. This is the secret sauce and that's what helps make this car great. Thank you for another great review Joe! BTW Joe, many of the people that will buy either the Porsche or this Z06 will be interested in the trunk space; Come on you need to be able to get a golf bag in there, right?

    Sure enough, this 5.5 is DOHC/32 valves - first such motor since the ZR1/Lotus LT5 (1989-95), I believe.

The dealers have eliminated a large group of buyers from the 2020 c8 when they marked prices up as well. Hopefully GM will pay for allowing that to happen

    My biggest complaint about the Corvette has always the multiple trim levels. If I was a corvette guy I’d only be able to be happy with a ZR1, I mean if you don’t have the ZR1 you’re always last, just like Ricky Bobby. That would be like Honda having a Type R, Type RR, and a Type RRR. It’s really odd to have so many variants of a fast car and again if you’re not in a ZR1 to me your last. Sorry it’s how my mind thinks and I just couldn’t enjoy anything else Corvette as beautiful as the Z06 is it pains me.

      That’s not how it works dummy. Some trims are better for the street and average man. The C8 Z and ZR1 are meant to be driven hard on a track. They are race cars that are just barely street legal. There is no room to open up a 750 HP car on the streets. The difference between the Stingray and Z06 is very minimal in a street/stoplight to stoplight setting. Also if something goes wrong your car is likely in the shop for a month as you wait for a new motor. Very few GM certified techs out there that know how to work on a Z or ZR1.

      @@WindyCity1992 I agree, however they don’t make vehicles for the masses like GM does. Most typically when your cars have the same power plant they offer special edition cosmetics etc not a completely different power plant spec in those special trims of the same sports car. The problem I have with the lesser trims and the reason I wouldn’t buy one, is that it makes them less special as a corvette to me personally. Cars built for the masses like the Camaro, Corvette, Mustang, Challenger, Chargers you see them everywhere and unless you have the top trim you will look like regular traffic. No one’s looking twice at them and only enthusiasts notice if you are in a top trim of those “dime a dozen” American models. I like vehicles I can drive and not see other models of the same car on every street corner. If I’m throwing down $150-200k for a vehicle it’s not going to be on a Chevy Corvette.

    I think people forget the way to make a car fast is how well the suspension puts it down. That’s how the Supra defies the odds it’s super fast for a “382 / 368” car. Yeah it’s way underrated in specs but the Supras magic is just like the Z06 putting the 460 torque on the road is how you get the speed not numbers. Suspension and traction setup is so important!
