Thank-you for joining us!
The joy on your face mate, when you opened that box with the hats - that's the same joy we get from your daily vlogs. Thank you Rick.
Best corvette salesman on youtube .
very kind, thanks so much!
Simon the vette salesman in the movie true lies gave him a run for his money.
Yes, by far!
A perfect example of how one’s passion can translate into a career. Rick’s’ enthusiasm for Corvette is so apparent. I went for a new Porsche instead of the new C8 but I am still drawn to watch his videos. Great work Rick!
Love the hats; Ivan great idea, Rick needed a push to do merch. I need a coffee mug too!!!
Ivan, you and your club are one in a million - so cool!
simply amazing ... had the pleasure of meeting them here before too....down to earth cool people!
Glad you like the mug....enjoy and keep those Vlogs coming. We appreciate all your hard work and information!!
Great vlog Rick, love the info and commentary on the C8 seat! Corvette Strong 💪
Thanks for the video Rick Take care
LOL... gettin' into the groovin' there, Rick, with that cool mug from the Eastside Corvette Club of Detroit!
That's fine. Look forward to Tuesday's Vlog
Another great informative Vlog Rick. Hoping for another status update on my C8 soon. Wow, would I love one of those hats!!!
As much as I enjoy your blog I don't know if I could keep watching it because every time I do I regret the fact that I didn't purchase my C8 from you. Chances are I would have already had my car but even if I didn't your informational vlogs are quite entertaining and interesting. Keep up the good work I know that next time you're my guy. Who knows, I am very interested in the ZO6!?
Rick I had competition seats in my 2015 ZO6-ZO7 but went with GT2 seats in my C8.....
Great video it's also nice to see Corvettes on your lot
Those hat's are very cool. Nice job from your Canadian friend's. Sell some mugs for one of your charities. We're all here to help you.
Love the dance moves!!! Made me chuckle.😆 Thanks for a another great vlog. Love learning about everything Covette. My husband who works at a Chevy dealership here in CO even calls me to ask questions about the C8!!
LOL, that's great, thank-you
Rick, Great Vlog once again!! Love the hat and the mug!!! Goes to show you that what you’re doing for the Corvette Community isn’t going unnoticed!! STAY💯👍👍👍mike r. in NC
You were so right Rick about the competition seats even before the C8 came out. But I guess if your going to track the car a lot then it makes sense but as Chuck says for daily driving maybe not so much.
Great analysis on the comp seats! I can't agree more! They maybe fantastic on the track but for the other 95% of the time you will be wishing you went with the GT 2 seats. I just want to give our club president a shout out saying nice job on the coffee cup from our club
Eastside Corvette club of Detroit.
Thanks John!! Love the new hat buddy! It looks FANTASTIC!
🖐🖐🖐👋👍
I would love one of those hat's. Looks amazing
Those hats are AMAZING!!!!!!! Ivan, you're the man!!!!!! Great vlog as always Rick!!!!
Ivan from Nova Scotia, caller of the day!!! Nice job on the hats!!
Hi Rick, nice hat, looks good on you.
Enjoying the daily vlogs.👍🙂
thanks Alan
And that's why you are one step ahead of some other salespeople Rick, great information; forewarned on the Comp seat, but not exclusionary if that's what you want (or need).
much appreciated Chuck
Glad you liked them sir 👍
Hat's are cool. Another great one....... Thanks !!!!
Great Vlog Rick as usual!!
You're welcome Rick.
Great info Rick. I noticed the high rocker when I went to one of the local dealers that had one on display. Almost as bad as the 84 that I had.
Great video Rick 👌
Rick, I said the same thing about the Competition seat when I sat in one last December. I Currently have a 1986 C4 and the 2020 Competition seat is just as hard to sit down in as the 86. LOL
Great job Iven!!
Rick, you always knock it out of the park. Excellent blog. You are so helpful to your vlog fans. How do you (I) get one of those Conti caps. Really looking good. I hope his part comes in before he arrives Saturday. Looking forward to tomorrow's vlog.
Another great vlog Rick 👍🏼! Those seats look cool but that bottom bolster will wear out eventually.
Good morning Ricky! Have a great weekend
hey Kurt
great vlog as ben franklin once said all things come to he who waits now a 380 days and waiting be safe
That's amazing me too.. you still at 3000? Rapid Blue for me. Dealers are getting cars. We should be moving soon..
@@thereissomecoolstuff at 3300 or 3400 be safe
Hey Rick has the second shift started yet? I heard it was suppose to start last month but haven’t heard if it actually did yet, thanks
Rick fantastic video as normal.... would you continue your thoughts on a GT2 and GT1 seats... I really like your personal thoughts on it..
Cheers from Canada
Great video sir
I need that hat! Maybe another run with the stitching in rapid blue!
Rick don't be ashamed of your top piece I was the same way ,put on all the hats you want on camera
Plus, anything "hugging" you will soon turn into a pressure point on your sides. After a long drive, you'll feel like someone pounded you with rib shots. You will be sore as hell in the rib area as well as the upper thigh....
The hat rocks sweet
Thanks Ivan, cool hat;)
Rick, I think you got this one totally wrong. I am 71 and have the GT2 seats in my C8 and they are ideal comfort for my everyday driver, very easy to get in and out of but I do have my exit position set at the maximum back position.
Richard, the comp seat is NOT the GT2 sir....the GT2 is my seat of choice!
Rick Corvette Conti , my mistake
That was kind gesture of Ivan to send you the hats.
Ivan the not so terrible !
12:02 with all the negative things going on lately we need more huggy 🤗
Awesome content as usual. I love m y GT2 seats. They are tight enough. Glad i didn't order those seats.
I appreciate you Rick.
One question when can we start to pre order 2021 C8 haven't seen nothing yet. Also is that high mount wing aftermarket never saw that as a option. Looks AWESOME and very clean.
The high wing is an additional Z51 option, but Chevy is having trouble with their supplier. You can buy the OEM part online from a few sites. Hopefully they can re-enable that option for the 2021 cars later this year.
I love the hats, will watch for them,
Ha ha!!! i was the first to watch ...Like & post a comment on your blog !!! dang i'm fast !!!
Man you're really good at this I can't wait to meet you thanks I hope I get one soon dreaming
I wanna buy one of those hats, if I can Rick!!
Love the cap!!! Love ur uploads Rick, keep up the great work! 😀
You talked me into it...I'm selecting the Competition Sport Seats for my C8.
Great job Ivan. ....
Good info Rick Thank you!
I LOVE the look of the Comp seat, I went GT2 but sort of regret not getting the Comp seat. Being 6’5” 225 I was scared off. Maybe on Z06 one day?
Thanks for the great advice on the Comp Seats.
Those seats do look good though.
I ordered ground effects and a high wing from c7 carbon for my c8. So hopefully I'll have them before I get my c8 in January
Hello Rick & Chuck great knowledge on the C8 Corvette " Competition Seat's" we understand this also Rick the Corvette News has been showing the new C8 Corvettes on issue while driving " your Front hood " Frunck Hatch" opening while driving too just mentioning maybe check on this issue too.. We Say you have Great Engineering knowledge for & to Customers ,Yessery Rick & Chuck keep up your Institutional video's Stay Safe & "GOD SPEED TO GREAT COUGHLIN CHEVROLET" .. V.V. /N.J
Do You think that the rocker extensions will help protect from rock chips?
not sure I wish I could have seen them before my guy took his car....will advise when they arrive
Me Rick, you and Chuck are such great information providers and entertainers. Just love your vlogs.
I don’t know where you get your energy from. God Bless....
See you tomorrow

Yeah, the biggest concern I have with my dream C7 is the seats. I had a chance to rent one on Turo. It was a ‘19 Z51 2LT. Not sure what seats I had, but my gosh...after a few hours of driving, my back was killing me! What kind of seats are in the C7 Grand Sports? (All trims)
No place for a harness/roll bar to mount harnesses.
I agree for most but for me it's as if the seat was made for me. When I sat in it I knew it was for me.
Favorite coffee mug music 🎶 lol
And adjustment to make wider. Mine dig into my legs on longer trips.
Hey Rick! Just got my C8 a few days ago! - When slowly accelerating from a stop, it is jerky/pully? going from first, second, and third gear, but after third it is all smooth and perfect. When coming down to a stop again and decelerating, it feels jerky/pully again dropping from 4th to 3rd and then again down to 1st. anything above 3rd gear is buttery smooth. Is this a normal feeling or is it something I should be worried about. The car has 300 miles on it, and just want to make sure all is good. Some people are telling me that it could just be the car getting used to my driving patterns and to wait a few hundred miles. Also it’s more aggressive of a shift in sport and track mode. In tour mode it still happens but way more dampened/ less noticeable
Mine does this also. 50% of the time. I have only driven it in sport mode and I have less than 200 miles. Hopefully it is normal 🤞
El Lobo okay sweet. Sounds normal then. What are the odds we both randomly have this issue 🤣
FANTASTAC REVIEW!!! Especially on that COMP SEAT!!! Not for me!!
Thanks for sharing this. I’m 29 and a thin body type who ordered the competition seats with my 2021 C8. I think I made the right choice for my body type, but I appreciate your honest feedback on how most owners would not like it. I’ve been searching for seat feedback and almost no videos exist. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate it.
I'm 6ft and 150. 32 inch waist and they fit like a glove. You'll love'm!
@@joemessman1 Wow. You're almost identical to me; even the waist line. Thank you so much for responding. You've made me feel worlds better about my order. Thank you again!
@@joemessman1 quick question I'm 5'7 weigh 170-175 will these seats fit me well? Also are they rock hard or are they comfy.
Sons wanted to drive on the Museum track.
Sick !!!
Rick I've now set in to c8s both of them with the GT2 seats the bolsters are too tight. What can be done? Can't justify the big bucks for a car I can't sit in.
seat review starts at 13:10
I don’t think the Comp seats would be good for big men over 250 pounds. The wrap around parts of the seat may be too narrow. Getting in and out of the seat is no big deal for me. I’m not usually getting in and out of my car that many times in a day. I am 49 years old, 5’ 11” 190 pounds. I am in great shape and have good agility.
Is the available inventory of the 2019 Corvette Coupe 3LT published?
on coughlincorvette.com as all I have it used...any questions let me know, if you email off that site, let the call center know you are from my youtube channel,thank-you
love the channel. can I have a hat lol
Wow! those hats are not only awesome, but a great idea. You should not gloss over that. I know you've been considering it. strike when the pan is hot? Or something like that!!
Rick, its Kevin from Chicagoland - so those hats are freaking awesome, I love black hats with red and white lettering on them..! Please let me know if I can buy one from you, or if you will be making some yourself soon for your Subscribers and Customers...???
Rick since I'm not going to get my high Wing spoiler will I at least get the stock spoiler
No, quit asking...
Those hats are awesome! Would love to have one!
I love that hat> So you know a Retired Army guyy wants one so let me know how I can get it? Keep Up the good work. I am coming up there soon. I want to go too Carlisle. Take Care Rick.
Former 1990 C4 owner,...Fall In and Climb Out....remedy, do more crunches...lol
They really need a geriatric seat option with a cutout for prostate relief.
Maybe since I seem to lose every give away I am looking over those hats. Newbie John
John, send me an email sir rickconti@coughlincars.com
I will pass on competition seats. Love the hats!!
been driving my 2021 for about 800 miles. Seat is very uncomfortable. I'm not a huge guy at all, but the bolsters press tight against my thighs and create a lot of discomfort after driving a short distance. Enough that I've contemplated selling it after waiting over a year and seven months. I may visit a local upholstery shop and see if the can rework the bolsters. Anyone else have any issues? If so, any solutions?
Sad they can’t even sell what’s on the lot.
Ok when we ordered our C8's we didn't have the chance to sit in the seats so if we ordered a seat and find it not comfortable what happens. Also what are you doing for your customers that ordered the High Wing Spoiler? Can we ask the dealership to back order them?
Jack, I will save this to answer on the Tuesday show if that's ok sir, thanks for watching
I have a question are these seats good using the car as a weekend toy? I wont be daily driving it.
Hey Rick, i'm curious about the standard seats vs the GT2 seats, on the web site they look almost identical other than the GT2 has a different head rest design, is the softness of them different? are the stock seats in 1LT any different then the 2LT in comfort (other than the cooling & heating)?... i'm hung up, i always like the base 'vette with a bit more tire =)
You would think GM would have made the bolsters electrically adjustable, problem solved !!
Great video Rick if you could notify Ivan to get a hold of me that would be great or Ivan if you see this could you please get a hold of me cheers
Question: What wheel locks match the Q8P wheels? Chrome?
It s a little ironic that his slogan is “stop dreaming, start driving” but he himself doesn’t own a corvette.
For Chuck, I have the illuminated door sills that half ass work. Any thoughts on what to do?
the contact strips may have not been lined up right before install
@@RickCorvetteConti they are there. Sometimes they come on but most often they don't. Is there any way to get replacement aluminum strips, though I think they are correct. I measured the placement.
Hey Rick how are you quick question how much extra is it to get the z51 wing color matched what code is used for ordering a color matched z51 wing
no code needed, it comes body color unless you decide to make it carbon flash, which the mirrors are too for only $100...Z51 models, on non -Z51, still $100 just the mirrors painted carbon flash black
@@RickCorvetteConti thanks Rick I can always count on you for the correct answer thank you very much you should throw this info in one of your videos there's a lot of mixed answers on this topic thanks again bro
i have the gt3 seats in my 21 c8
regret it
