Eray for me….AWD, torque anytime, electric motor, sleeper on road( will destroy most cars on the street) wide body, 655HP and most of all it’s a street car all day long + optional track fun!! Sounds like the Swiss Army knife of the C8 line up- sign me up!!!🏎️

I can promise you would have a totally different opinion if you owned a C8 Z06. There’s nothing like it, the emotion that it gives you is intoxicating, and especially when you throw sport cats on it. Sounds like you’re going 200 MPH at 25 MPH.
Another Eray vote. I love the AWD. Corvette has long been missing that characteristic. Yes, I understand the RWD heritage of the car. But, the Corvette has been left in the dust with out AWD. Now with the mid engine and AWD. This is Awesome! Love the idea of AWD in the Vette. Love the sound of the V8 and the electric sound too. Honoring the future and the past all at the same time. Love it.
C8 is the best car to come from GM in generations. Looking forward to seeing the upper echelons ZR-1 and Zora cars. At least one of them will push 1,000 hp this generation. Over 220+ mph exotic stuff
Key take away: Going from stealth mode to the V8 engine on, the engine is still starting from stone cold and warrants some care allowing it to warm up before pushing it.
Looks gorgeous, love that it has the Z06-style wide body with its own unique fascia , bits and pieces, especially like its unique set of wheels, those look very good !
Mr. Eddie, expertly executed New 2024 Corvette E Ray content. Complimented with your pleasant new companion. Z06 is more to my performance preference. Per your eval the E Ray will be best choice as daily driver. Thank you for your professional RUclips productions and crafted content.
Why the hell would I take this car over a ZO6 when the Z06 Sounds Way better than the E-Ray and the Z06 also is likely to appreciate in value in the future due to that engine
Good review ... i jumped on ERay list as soon as they were announced. Fingers crossed i should be able to order soon. Love my C8 z51 stingray & looking forward to upgrading!
Currently own a C7 GS, buying a C8 E-Ray, on the list for a C9 Z06. Can't see having more than one C8, no matter the power increase, it's STILL a C8. But a C7, C8, and C9--Yeah Baby 😎
As the owner of the 69th C8 created on the assembly line i can confidently say you're not on a C9 list because they don't exist. Also, for future reference you should know that allocation listings and information are public knowledge.
@@CatNMrDJ Im willing to wager $10,000 that you can't provide allocation information. Prove me wrong. Post a video with your allocation directly from Chevrolet.
@@Floridastoners You’re a 🤡 my Brother. I said I’m on a C9 Z06 list; said nothing about an allocation. I’m on Criswell’s C9 list; also on their Corvette SUV list. If you still have issues with my comments, that’s your problem 😉
2:23 Auto Stop feature; "When the car is stopped and the brake pedal is pressed, the engine automatically turns off if certain conditions are met. The A symbol appears on the instrument cluster when the car is stopped. The engine restarts when the brake pedal is released or the accelerator pedal is pressed." The purpose is to save gasoline fuel and reduce emissions. Did you ever get used to this feature?
Still haven’t seen an E-Ray. I got a job in the service department of a large Chevrolet dealership 20 months ago. So far I only get to park Corvettes. I also drive the shuttle vehicle which are Equinox’s. It’s my favorite job I’ve ever had except I’m only paid $15 an hour.
You're making it even harder for me to decide between a C8 Z06 or the ERay! Loved this video and you demonstrating its features and performance. That stealth mode was something I was very curious about as well! Glad you showed that portion and answered every question I had in mind! Subb'd AF to you! 😁😁
The E-Ray is the more " everyday " Corvette. Someone like myself that would spend zero time at the track the E-Ray would be the practical choice. The AWD would deffinantly add points in my book.
Thank you! This is the most definitive and informed advice on how to choose between the Z06 and E-Ray that I have viewed. For my upcoming retirement, it is going to be the E-Ray, no doubt. Can the animations be skipped automatically? They are so CHEESY. I hardly need an animation of the very car that I am presently driving.
Eddie, I'm so torn right now between the 2. The used market pricing is really good, and I'm cross shopping both cars along with maybe the new nsx. The thing that kills the eray for me is the engine sound. That z06 sounds is so good. The struggle sucks.
Actually you can do more things with this car than with a Z06. Stick a magnesen supercharger on the engine, change out the rear exhaust for a Z06 center pipe and install an upgrade valvetronic exhaust cat delete on this thing and now you have a four wheel drive ferrari lambo killer. Combined horsepower around 800! Imagine the sounds...
Great review of an awesome new version of the corvette. Your copilot is awesome and hope to see you and her in future videos. You guys make a nice couple
Eray for me too. I can daily drive it year round. For 2025, GM discontinued the silver flare color! WTF?? It looks awesome! Please call/write GM to bring it back!
i have a c8 stingray 3lt. convertible. Im looking to upgrade and I am at a standstill between the two. This is so damn hard of a decision. I dont track my cars. I live in Houston.
Sounds like the ERay is a better fit for you then since the C8 Z06 is a pure track weapon. Eddie even mentioned the daily driveability of the ERay is much better than the Z06.
Nice video content and presentation. I just subscribed. What color was the eRay? See a few different options on the Chevy website but cannot tell which one was your test vehicle. Thanks
Eddie - can you elaborate a bit more on the all-seasons and their grip? I know the 1.1 v 1.0 of the PS4S v all-seasons, and you mentioned a bit more understeer in the round-abouts. My Z07 is being built (literally as I type this) and I've already got a set of the all-seasons mounted on a second set of wheels. It gets chilly enough here in the winters that I'd be concerned about the PS4S tires cracking under use, which is why I went with the AS tires (they're also less expensive and last a lot longer). The Cup tires will be confined to track work while every-day driving will be on the AS tires. Think I'll be missing out a LOT? Or just a small amount?
The E-Ray won't make it 3 years production without being discontinued. The worst idea GM ever dreamt up for the Vette. GM isn't making many and...they aren't selling well at all.
Totally agree with with you on the Eray… But I can only dream of an AWD Z06 with the hybrid Electric motor. Please be at least one version of the ZR1 🙏🏻
I’m torn between the two vehicles. I held out for the eray. But all my friends are pushing me towards the z06. Now I’m leaning towards the zo6 now because it’s a weekend car, sports car that I want to keep forever.
Unless you’re gonna be on a track, the ERAy is probably going to be just as good for you. it’s super fast and because it’s all wheel drive you can drive it in any type of weather
Sure is. I have been wanting a C7 since 2017 and I am finally going through with it as of today. A C7 Stingray, the best I can do, but I am happy nonetheless.
Owned 21 Corvettes over 50 years. First one was a new 1966, and it cost $5200. Convertible with removable hard top. I'm very familiar with Corvette pricing. I think the C8 Z06 is overpriced. I get it that a guy putting lug nuts on a new Corvette is making a great salary with mega benefits. They're making the pay of skilled labor, doing an unskilled job. Been in the factory many times and it amazes me how much these folks make.
Great review on living with the Eray. However, that electric "whine" would drive me crazy. Overall, other than when you are "pulling" it in short burst, I do not see the benefit. OK, all-wheel drive is good in bad weather, but how many Vette owners will drive their Eray in bad weather (snow, ice, heavy rain)?
Z now, AWD ZORA later. A lot of the ZR1s power won't be usable on the street with RWD when a Z can barely handle it. ZR1 will mainly be for bragging rights until the ZORA comes out which be be the ultimate Vette.
The grand question I’ve been racking my brain around for weeks lol. I have the opportunity to get a ceramic grey z06 but I’m also number one on the list for an eray likely getting an early 2025 the question what one do I go for! I’ve wanted a z06 for the engine since it first showed its face to the world.
I currently have, going on eighteen years-old, 2006 Chevy, Corvette. She has been and continues to be a fun ride! sixty-six thousand miles and she still hauls & handles quite well! Still gives me pause to entertain the E-Ray because of that fact. That will be my choice when & if I pull the trigger. All wheel drive! For me, punching it into and out of corners! That's what sobers me up the most about my current. That rear end has broken free. For what it's worth, that 2025 E-Ray appears to be a pure kick in the pants!!
You couldn’t be more wrong.. 60 real quick and then you have a boring heavy wide body Stingray. No car gives you the exhilaration the Z06 does. Way more fun winding out the gears. You feel like your one of the drivers in the Petit Le Mans. Comparing an Eray to a Z06 is like comparing a banana to a biscuit. Only on paper are they remotely similar.
I love the idea of having an AWD C8 but I'm not sure how it'll hold up to heavy daily driving usage as an only car. I won't be interested in trading in the Stingray until well into the C9 generation anyway but it's great to see your comparison to the Z06 side by side.
@@EddieX True but its in the thousands. My 2020 in shop last 3 weeks. And dealer backed up for 2 months they said Still waiting for either new one or they may try a new throttle body. They really should’ve did a recall on this, but they’re trying to avoid it because it’s so much money. Very disappointing. But love my 2020. Hopefully they get this figured out
No, this gives you an electric motor in the front so it’s like having a Corvette with an all wheel drive option and with the motor in the front you also get additional horsepower. And in silent mode, you can leave the neighborhood without making any noise.
I don’t understand the point of the video. It seems like you’re passive bragging. What is so hard to live with it’s a massed produced car? Put gas in it or charge it. It has 2 doors and a steering wheel use the wheel to steer and push the pedal to go faster then use the other pedal to stop the car. You can put stuff in the front or rear trunk.

Man I’m with you on please give us a light weight Z06 with the AWD Hybid set up ! If the ZR1 is only available with a CPC I’m out, no interest whatsoever! When you have a Flat Plane crank Z07 with High flow cats it’s kind of hard to drive anything else…
Eray for me….AWD, torque anytime, electric motor, sleeper on road( will destroy most cars on the street) wide body, 655HP and most of all it’s a street car all day long + optional track fun!! Sounds like the Swiss Army knife of the C8 line up- sign me up!!!🏎️
Swiss army knife of C8s is a good way to put it. It’s not necessarily much of a sleeper tho 😅
@@EddieX Clarification on my ‘sleeper’ comment…what I meant is most people will think it’s a regular C8 not knowing it is a BEAST. Only the true car buffs will notice the wide body, fat 345 tires or small eray badging on the side panels!!!!
I love mine! ERay for me all the way.
I can promise you would have a totally different opinion if you owned a
C8 Z06. There’s nothing like it, the emotion that it gives you is intoxicating, and especially when you throw sport cats on it. Sounds like you’re going 200 MPH at 25 MPH.
lol sleeper. It’s a vette. No one looking at a vette as a sleeper.
The z06 engine is a masterpiece and it sounds awesome but the Eray is cool in its own way

Agree with you 💯 I’d take the Z06 any day, however, if you have enough money and want 2 Corvettes… eRay is a cool daily driver
I much much prefer the Z06 center exhausts. Hat is good enough reason to get it over any other Vette.
@@paulm6481 There are plenty aftermarket center exhaust for the E-Ray; Paragon stands out as probably the best.
This is the car to get! That torque and the amazing noises it makes!
Looks gorgeous, love that it has the Z06-style wide body with its own unique fascia , bits and pieces, especially like its unique set of wheels, those look very good !
Good on gas for sports car, awd abilities, muscle car sound. Tech with speed with z06 widebody, this is 5/5 for me 🔥. I prefer this e ray over the z06
So amazing I just love this version of the Vette. On paper this is my favorite version of the Corvette.
It’s also quite good on tarmac haha
Key word paper. Z06 is king

Already sold on the z06, now im sold on the e ray lol. Its a sick ride! Chevy is really stepping it up
Resale value on these will drop hard (compared to Z06) as more are produced. Paint match rear fender flare works though
I imagine z06 values will eventually drop as normal too. Especially as higher tier trims/models launch.
Should i get this or the Lexus LC 500 convertible?
eray all day
All you need is a lawn chair and some jean shorts
Jorts
C8 Z06 all day, the E-Ray is like dancing with no music, the LT6 engine is a masterpiece.

I have a Z51 Stingray. Would you upgrade to a Z06 or Eray, OR, just stick with the Stingray? I don't really track my cars
Depends if you want crazy high revving NA or torquey grand tourer! What aspect of your stingray do you love and hate the most
If you're looking to for sure get out of your Z51, and don't track the car, go with an Eray. It's like supercharging your Z51!
Hard to think of what I don't like about my Z51. Maybe the lack of low end torque at higher speeds?

How is it vs an NSX? I am deciding between a 2018 NSX or 2024 E RAY

Nice video content and presentation. I just subscribed. What color was the eRay? See a few different options on the Chevy website but cannot tell which one was your test vehicle. Thanks
I’d have trouble buying this over the ZO6. The stealth mode would be awesome for leaving the house and neighborhood in the morning.
people dont really argue the fact that the eray exhaust sounds better and more grotesque than the z06
Putting a Lingenfelter 700HP 427 LT2 in this platform is basically hybrid heaven. 700hp RWD, 160hp FWD ON PUMP 91.
So is the E-Ray taking the Grand Sports spot in the lineup?
A bit long winded, but appreciate the detailed content. E-Ray for me out of the C8 lineup 👍🏼

i think the ZR1 will have the ERay motor and Z06 engine. i think the Zora will be the ZR1 with a supercharger.

I will never own another car the isn’t FPC
Are you going to get the new zr1
Mannn it’s so tough but I think I’ll go ERAY!! But the Z06 is tough!
I am going to get the eRay because I live in North Dakota and want to be able to drive it all year around.
Is liking comments still a thing >>>>>>
I am surprised all Vettes do not come with summer tires as standard. I mean who drives a Vette in winter?
If you have the Eray, then you’re able to drive in the winter because it’s all wheel drive. that’s one of the advantages of having it

Very different experiences but you can’t go wrong with either!

I don’t see why it wouldn’t hold up! GM has put these through the same durability testing as a RWD C8!
Have you had any transmission problems with either car yet like everyone else has

Man I’m with you on please give us a light weight Z06 with the AWD Hybid set up ! If the ZR1 is only available with a CPC I’m out, no interest whatsoever! When you have a Flat Plane crank Z07 with High flow cats it’s kind of hard to drive anything else…
Wow the Corvette e ray it looks sexy in the gray
living in Colorado, I would want an E Ray
Great info!
love this detail review!
Glad you liked it!
I love everything about this car except for the weight
Quickest ? Hum the ZR1 is out already.
Check the date when this was posted lol
E-Ray for me
Much better new watch. 👏
Is it worth it or should you keep a Z06
Did you watch the video 😅
@@EddieX yeah but I still can’t figure out if it’s better than a Z06
Are you crazy?? lol
KEEP THE Z06!
