    I feel the 3LT may have more leather, but not worth the net increase in price of $3,155, assuming you opt for the GT2 seats on the 2LT package. The 3LT is the first option that fully depreciates when you take delivery. I’m going with the 2LT.

    • @HorsePowerObsessed

    Too much alcantara! Especially the steering wheel. Nothing like absorbing all of your hand sweat and smoothing out the areas where you normally drive from. They look like shit after 20000 miles and can never really be cleaned properly! I think the leather wheel is classier and more functional.

    So this exact car was the first C8 I ordered and had Blackout do a PPF on it. Owned it for a few months and took it to the track a few times. Then someone bought it off of me for a really good price. I've now confirmed my order for the '21 convertible. I really liked the red and black interior, but it was a bit too 'loud' after a while. The '21 'vert is getting the all-black interior, but I had to go with Elkhart Lake Blue again. It's just that beautiful in all lighting. By far my favorite color! I do have a ZL1 6MT getting delivered in a week to hold me over until the '21 C8 is ready to pick up. Can't wait to get behind the wheel of a C8 again!

    Removing the T-top is also the same as the C6. FWIW, with all the wizardry included in the C8, I half expected that you would just press a button to release all three locking points. Love the Hyperion case. I wonder if they make it in colors? Seeing the factory CF interior appointments, it will be interesting to see what the after-market comes up with for add'l CF pieces for the interior. As to the racing seats, starting with the C7s, the shiny black backs are what I really do like! I also like the C8 dash eye-lids, color accented or not. As to the interior rear-view mirror, when you activate it to camera mode, is the auto dimming feature non-existent? LIke for night-time driving? Great review Justin!👍

    Just fyi to everybody. Before you pick up your c8 from the dealer make sure when they show you the car you go through it with a fine tooth comb for any perfections before signing the dotted line. Paint job stitching screws bubbling scratches you name it if i find any of those i will not sign until fixed. These cars are mass produced which increases chances of imperfection. Less likely to happen with a ferrari but then again they dont make as much so less chance it could happen but still it can just rarely.

    As mentioned the front lift is available on 2Lt because I put that on mine. As for color, that is all personal taste. I went simple LBR with black, Z51. Hate Alcantera so 3Lt was not worth it to me. The carbon fiber inserts were too much for too little in my opinion. Love the car but it is not a fighter cockpit. I flew F-4s and F-16s over 20 years and they do not have cockpits like this. Just sayin

  • @paulmayo3703
    @paulmayo3703 4 года назад

    The carbon fiber is an option on both 2lt and 3 lt interiors. And the front lift is an option on either 2LT or 3LT. You can also get the GT2 seat without going to a full 3LT. One of the other items not on your cars in the natural dipped interior (no charge on 3LT and not even available on the 3LT)

    The more I here about the options the less I like them. Don't like suede, don't need most of the stuff just something to break. Too bad they don't allow more individual options on the LT1 such as the video rearview mirror, heads up and or the better sound system. There are some early flaws many of these flaws are in the upgrades. In two years expect a lot of refinements including airflow to the motor, they might even reduce the amount of water that lands on the motor in the rain or during washing.

    Of course this is all subjective, but I just don't see it. Of course 3LT is a step up from 2LT. The question is, is that upgrade worth $5K? Not to me, not even close. Not even worth a thought, , , to me! The front end lift is an option to both, the 2LT and 3LT as far as I know. That will also be something I get. If that's included in 3LT, then I would be in on 3 LT. I still think the lift is an option.

It is bad enough that GM wants $590.00 to put a adrenaline red interior in an Elkhart Lake Blue Car. I wonder if they want that much more for the orange seat belts on top of what they get for orange seat belts. Back in the day when you had to add seat belts to have them all colors cost the same.

There is a $4650 difference but the GT2 with Napa leather seats which have lumbar support is a $1495 upgrade on LT2 reducing difference to only $3155. Remember the LT3 is full Napa leather dash, steering wheel center and doors are full leather top and bottom so seems LT3 might actually be best choice. Imagine if you could get all those upgrades in a Porsche for that amount of money.

    C8, C8 - A Date With My 'Vette Will Just Have To Wait--(Title of Poem)
    If you want your C8 you'll just have to wait,
    All the magazines say that it's really great,
    You can build one on line, that's for sure,
    But you'll wait in line for what seems like years.
    I want it; I want it; I want it.
    Do you want it? do you want it? I thought I heard you say that you want it!
    My friends have Porsche and Lamborghini,
    Guys I film have Lotus, Ferrari and AMG,
    But I don't care 'cause I want a C8,
    When I drive my tuner, seems I'm always late,
    In 2020 BGAP closed its gate; seems a virus showed up like Watergate;
    Now all I can do is drink some beers, there's no stick shift, but its got 8 gears
    And now I'm lonely without the key; there's no C8, coming to me.
    Conti's still dreamin' 'cause he's not driving; Mikes got his but they are out of C7's;
    Bowling Green: start again please; I want a C8, its my piece of Heaven;
    The drive's still in back, now so's the motor,
    Gimme that 'Vette cause I ain't no floater.
    When my lunch is done, I need my Corvette,
    Cause I'm ready for action and I'll take your bet.
    I don't need no jewelry for me to have bling,
    And the Mustang Cobra, is no longer the King.
    Let me take my Ricarro's out o' the booth;
    'Cause Zero to 60, will tell the truth!
    On a beautiful day I can run in the tens,
    But its oh so sad how this saga ends,
    Here we are in social lock-down,
    No 'Vettes being made with the line shut down;
    I gotta have this car, I gotta have one,
    With 8 D/C speeds, she can really run,
    6.2 Liters and we're havin' fun.
    The cash in my pocket is burning a hole
    And the PDR shows, I struck a mean blow;
    Please, please God take the virus away,
    For comin' soon will be the day,
    I'll be on track and racing for the cup,
    On the turns I'll pass 'em, cause my 8 hooks up.
    "Brink of Speed," shows me what it's like;
    And, "Speed Phenom," drives, while I just hike;
    "TJ's," mods are so very cool,
    But when I get my C8 I'll take'm to school;
    My drivin' shoes are on, but it's just not great.
    'Cause to get my Vette, I'll just have to wait;
    They come from GM and they're really great,
    Yet to get my C8, I'll just have to wait!
    (loud to fade out): I'll just have to wait; I'll just have to wait (word wait stretched out) I'll just
    have to wait. (End real low to whisper quiet.)
