Ferrari 308? Not quite.

Ferrari 308? Not quite. This car is even more rare. Number 108 of 247 Pontiac Mera's ever made.
looks like a lotus emira from the back, a c8 from the side, and a huracan from the front, for the price, just buy a lotus emira, a c8 and a huracan.. and still save some few 10's of thousands.. and 3 cars...
I guess it does. Totally agree, just get the 3 and save a bunch of money. Thanks for the comment.
You’re just asking to get shot at driving an armored corvette 😂
@@nick2128 hahaha, no kidding. It’s got to weigh like 1500lbs more at that point as well. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it.
Idk how I feel about the tertiary audio content… think I could do with just Misha. You say you’re not a race car driver, well Misha is. I’ll listen to him. Nice editing tho.
some facts: all C8 interior interiors are the same, the C8Z06 is the heaviest C8 before the Eray (300lbs heavier and 190tq LESS than C7Z06) the C8Z06 will have the lowest TQ of past and future C8 models. the weight of front and rear wheels & tires is shocking high: Front with Cup2R non carbon: 58.6lbs Rear with Cup2R non carbon: 69.4
@@JerryCecco thanks for the info. It’s odd that the Z06 has less tq than the base model, though they are squeezing out a lot more hp from a smaller block. Thanks for checking out the video.
@@TheGICarGuyit has less tq because it’s a flat plan crank. Compare the to the pushrod.
@@CT-cf6wm thanks CT, I appreciate the info.
many youtubers and greedy GM dealers think the C8Z06 is IT. a dn GM dealers were/are charging huge ADMs. I think GM hide the Ring time (just like Ford hide the GT350 FPC Laguna Seca time)
I'm thinking Misha had traffic whereas the other test was flat out with none at all........oh, i just got to the part where Misha is talking about traffic 😂
Great video and analysis
@@ioan6211 thank you
there's defo more in it in terms of laptimes at NbR, perhaps GM should ax Misha if he could do a lap in stead. lol
@@MACRONOne I would love to see him have a dedicated track day with this thing. Thanks for checking in. Consider subbing if you haven’t already.
Nice car for sure. However manual transmission is an interaction that adds to the experience.
@@Bonsai-Miata2020 yep. The first 14 yrs of my driving life was in manuals. Thanks for checking out the video. I really appreciate it.
Thank you for that intro. I LOVE the F5. It is both beautiful and an incredible performer. This is every bit the American hypercar. The low drag version for top speed and the Revolution for the track and now there is going to be a manual version. Wow!
@@malcolmar thanks Malcolm, I’m glad you liked it. Thanks for checking out the video. I really appreciate it.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
7:07 "Total weight is just under 2,100 lbs". I think, wow that's incredible. They somehow shaved 1,500 lbs from the C8 Corvette. My god, lighter than my Miata! 7:31 shows the build sheet, Weight 2,960 lbs. OK, my sanity is back in check... but come on. You just lost all credibility.
@@jjuhring1 you’re right 2960 lbs is the correct weight. I misspoke in the video but addressed it in a previous comment. Thanks for the feedback.
The chassis of the Chevrolet Corvette C8 is praised for its exceptional stiffness, lightweight design, and handling capabilities, allowing for incredible performance, so it's a no brainer. The older W Motors Lykan or Fenyr is literally 1.5 - 3 million and really not much more of a car than the Beast. So in that respect, Rezvani is priced right in the niche supercar/hypercar market , if there is such a thing....
So install a 50k body kit and a c8 will be a hypercar. Smh
They should’ve deleted that side fin c8 have
I could see $200k.... maybe 250. But not 500.
isn't that the notorious "i lie about everything my prototype car does" company? lmao
@@93Beefcake they do have a few world records to their name.
@@TheGICarGuy they certainly hold a few titles in faking top speed runs and after that i think no one should take them seriously once a cheat always a cheat
I long the day when "fastest car" isnt something that simply goes quick on a straight line.... you do know roads have corners too right?
@@elwingy yes I agree but straight line speed is a very large metric when talking top end speed. Getting a vehicle to go faster and faster, up over like 250 mph is incredibly difficult. It involves way more than just a bigger engine to get up there. Anyways, thanks for the feedback and thanks for checking out the video.
Gotta fix the sound
yeah thats dodgy
@@martingaribay2619 yep, sorry. I’m still figuring out this editing stuff. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for checking out the video.
There SUV’s are absolutely atrocious
I could see it being 200k with all the work they put in it, but 500k is a bit much. Beautiful car though.
@@johnnyrock852 it is a very pretty car but half a mil? I don’t see it. Thanks for the comment.
Insane!
Really cool car!
Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing!
I liked the Beast Alpha x-blackbird and when you did the top-bottom comparison with the C8 and the newest Beast, I must admit, the profile of the car did look a little better on the Rezvani....a big duckbill spoiler would look nice on it
@@danksnowrain7652 yeah, I think they did a great job with the body as well. Thanks for checking out the video.
Just subscribed
@@JMGiE05 thanks, I really appreciate that.
That's actually pretty smart just take a car that a developer poured there heart & soul over the years with millions into r&d testing & refinement, just make a body kit & mark up the price $300,000.
@@Terry-cw9ty it’s got be financially viable or they wouldn’t do it. I just don’t know what makes up most of the $350k mark up? Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.
Car is beautiful price bit high
Noooooooooooooooo way
2014 or 2024? It says 2014 on the intro
USED car low mileage 2024 Beast would be a bargain, especially at around $180K C’mon DEPRECIATION 😎👍
Stupid purchase
it's just astion martin , masserati , corvette and jagguar at the same time , no fin way !! I am gonna spend that cash on on a stupid replica car like that , I prefer my beloved husband's new C8 ZR1 over it !
Right on grace, American muscle , baby!
They should sell the body kit . Looks way better than a vett.
you're d-mb btw
Think they would make more money that way, because it can’t be too many people buying this for half a million.
@@MirelioMarzo right. You would think they would have redesigned those air intakes. Thanks for commenting.
@@JayBelafonte I’ve said it a few times but where does the additional $300k go into this car? I do think it’s very pretty but not half a mil pretty. Thanks for checking in man.
THE LIGHT WEIGHT THOUGH WITH 1000HP? NICEEE 400K? 😢
👎
Its not only because the Beast is beautiful also i don’t know how Chevrolet managed to fail so badly in designing their best awaited Corvette.
@@997turbo2 I agree. I do like the C8 but the more I see them the more I think they could have refined it more. Especially after seeing what rezvani did with the body. Thanks for checking out my video.
@ i said what i said about the corvette because i love this car, specially the C5, i was waiting for the new corvette because i didn’t like the previous one design, and when they announced the new one i loved it technically so much but the more i see it the more i wonder how its designers could approve such design, the rear of it is a mess, wheels are small, side vents not beautiful (side vents supposed to make the car so beautiful but you can tell what happened), yes it can be improved but this is why i am disappointed, cars now designed in a way with defects so when the next one is released you have to get it, thank you for the video and replying to my comment.
@ of course. I appreciate your thoughts on the corvette. Thanks for checking in.
Garbage. Looks like a cheap Kia
I call bulshit on the weight, I think you meant just under 3100lbs. It was actually in the specs 2960lbs
@@HK304 you are correct. I even had that number in my notes. Thanks for catching that and thanks for checking out my video.
Half a million dollars on a corvette?! Naaah! Pass. Hell it's pushing it to spend regular price in my opinion
@@carloslewis8448 I feel ya! That was my point. It seems like a very over priced, though pretty, super car that doesn’t have all the things you can get in a car for half that price. Thanks for checking out my video. Consider subscribing. Thanks again.
Buy 2025 ZR1 1064 PUMP GAS AND WARRANTE WITH OVER 233MPH
You really played music over the guy giving the specs for the Beast 500😐🙄😮💨
@@jimmybootz1277 that would be me. Still learning the editing process. Thanks for watching my video. I really appreciate it.
2500 for black exhaust tips is crazy 😂😂😂😂
Looks like a kia stinger from the back
And that ain't good...
The simple one word answer to, "Do you spend $485,000 on this car..." instead of the regular money on a C8 is, "No."
@@thomascardillo7099 hahaha! Roger that. Just think what you could get for $485k.
@@TheGICarGuy 3 well optioned ZO6s.
The first thing I thought when I saw this car: Is this a bad copy of Ferrari
@@remiandrepedersen868 yes. It is a pretty car, I just think that it’s pieced together, if that makes sense. Like a really expensive kit car.
I really like your choice of the car you reviewed. Puls very informative 👏 hoping to see more unique car reviews from you😄✌️
@@markethan9723 thanks for the comment. I really appreciate it.
How can they get this down to 2100lb? There were no specs that I could see on the website and there is nearly 1000lb just in the engine and transaxle.
💜
Looks like a Ferretti which isn't a bad thing, it's a very good thing actually, even has the Ferrari price tag.
@@fredkelly6953 yes it does! Thanks for the comment.
No it doesn’t
Ferrari bring back pininfarina and make Ferrari beautiful again
No kidding. Thanks for checking out the video.
f80 looks ugly, the rear is like a corvette, the front looks like honda NSX and sound like a average 6 cylinder turbo.
I'm not gonna say ugly but it really is an amalgamation of different ideas all lumped into one really expensive hyper car. They definitely went with function over form on this one. I agree about the sound for sure. Thanks for the feedback. Consider subbing if you haven't already.
