Dk why I'm watching this I'm poor
I have this car, in Forza Horizon 5
One day you will afford anything
Work hard 💪
Same lol !
Don't have to be poor forever.
Causes one day you’ll see this thing in a junk yard
no matter how far joe goes he still keeps it real glad to see him still being the same genuine person he was when he started
That means the world Jay. I appreciate you being on the journey with us.
Here have a twinkie
100%
I thought u talking bout joe Biden
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!
This car is amazing. Seriously. I’m not a Chevy guy but what they’re doing with this gen of Vette is incredible. This one in black is sinister!!!!!
That is Sick looking, I want one
Tesla S Plaid is a lot more fun and it’s under $95k. No more noisy turtles. A “Sports” car needs to be fast!

@@AmericanBusinessman422 well they definitely did it last generation and the one before
There probably won’t be a zr1
Congrats on a million Joe and team! Been watching for 3.5 years now and no review has failed to put a smile on my face! This is what automotive passion is all about. Wishing you continued well deserved success!!!
Joe I gotta tell ya, it makes my day watching you go on throttle with that genuine laughter and excitement, makes me want to do what you do. Great review as always.. the car's a beauty!
That flat plane crank makes a tremendous difference. It sounds like a completely separate car from the Stingray. More like a race car. Wow. Great review, as always, Joe!
It's the 4 cam shafts and 32 valves vs 1 cam shaft and 16 valves. Just like the GT500s and Coyotes have been doing for a long time. Finally Gm realized pushrods suck
if this shitty engine blows again then my prayers will be answered
@@justinyoung4299 then why is the LS still a popular engine in the aftermarket? THAT'S a pushrod engine. Learn your history.
@@pontiacGXPfanthen why does Coyote make so much more HP modded stock internals 😂
I'm stuck in a horrible traffic jam right now but I'm glad you're having fun, Joe.
I have just one thing to say as a German born and a guy who works for German car Brands for years now: for example, Mercedes-Benz AMG deleted the front mid engine and transaxle setup 2 seater GT and developed a normal mounted engine/gear setup GT for the upcoming generation... corvette did exact the opposite thing... and I think that is a genius and brave move... german sport brands, please take some training and advice from the American guys and be brave again please... Chapeau Corvette 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Why in the world would the Germans take advice and training from the Chevy when they've been doing for years what Chevy is just now doing? Makes no sense at all. How the hell is what Chevy doing genius when they're only doing what others have been doing?
@@MercOneMercedes has nothing to worry about. Typical GM interior where the plastics don’t match up (center console to dash)
@@MercOne Lol what? Only porsche has been doing this. BMW and Mercedes don't have a mid engine car.
Did you even read the comment?
Your whole comment is literally one of the dumbest things I have ever read in the car world. Based on your flawed logic, Picasso should take some training and advice from a 4 year old kid who can't even write their name better yet paint a picture..
@@FuturesAnalytica Another stupid comment, Mercedes was one of the first if not the first to do this with the 150H but tell me again how you like to be wrong?
Oh Joe, your like a kid in a candy store. Your true excitement that comes out in your reviews is why people watch your channel. Keep them coming
You're
He’s like for a low cost of just 159,000 this can be yours. 60k over msrp and we will add in a free floor mats😂😂
Great content as usual. Joe and his crew are the best in the business. As a owner of a C8 Z51 - the Z06 adds a dose of excitement to the C8. The Stingray lacks roll on get up and go in my opinion. Other than that - great car.
Best Z06 review out there! Very informative and entertaining. Well done!!
That means the world!
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.
16:26 THAT EVIL RAITI LAUGH when HE 1v1s THE CLOG KING lmaooo epic
The rear spoiler is so much better that the Stingray wing, even tho it is subtle.
I totally agree with you
Dude. When i saw the thumbnail, i almost mistook it for a batmobile😂😂😂 this car looks so badass!!!
Congrats on the 1M been here since 10k Subs! Crazy how far you’ve come! The Rati Rides family has gotten bigger! 🎉🎉
This is pure, uncut CAR PORN!!!!!!!!!!!!! .. Good GOD that thing sounds AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This review flew by!!! I agree with you: an engineering marvel right there. ICE engines are far from dead. That exhaust note cannot make you 🥱. Thanks for this video, your, enthusiasm and your crew. I didn't want it to end.
By far my first choice regardless of price. And black/black is what I want.
Love it when your real emotions shines when driving these cars. Great job Joe!!!
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.
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 love the engine sound in the C8
I love (!) how you were pumped about reviewing the Z06. Thanks for the throwback history lesson of the Z06 UPP.
Thanks!
A belated congrats on reaching the 1M subscriber mark. It seems like just yesterday that you weren't even at the 1k mark. Well done Joe! 👍👍 Have a blessed week and Save the Wave 👋
Definitely in my top 5!
I just cannot get that Porsche out of my mind since it’s been there since I was little!
Chevy is definitely making major moves with the corvette soon being a 4WD shortly!
That’s going to be something to look forward to in the areas where it snows!
Very good points

Porsche GT3 RS. Build, quality looks and performance is perfection! There’s more to a car than straight line performance. Nurburgring! As Exotic Car Hacks says. “ A Corvette is what a McLaren shits out “ruclips.net/video/dqdN7hDH0zQ/видео.html

I believe the Z06 package on the C2 it was a 36 gallon gas tank, that was it, made it easier to road race with less refills during a race thus saving time
It had the bigger tank, yes, but the Z06 pkg back then also included OTHER things such as better brakes and sway bars.
Best car ever for a regular person like myself imo
16:25 love how the Clog Kings van melts away after on throttle! 😂😂❤

Oh man that’s a going to be a good one for sure, but as of right now I’d go with both. This C8 looks absolutely amazing.

I think for the price the Z06 is the best super car you can currently get. The value is unbelievable honestly. Can’t wait to see the ZR1!!
Duuuuuuude.......that thing looks AMAZING!!! Great review!
As a C8 Stingray owner, I can’t even imagine how amazing the Z06 must be. I’ve hit 0-60 in 2.8 and barely get to tap into its power during daily driving.
Thanks for sharing that ownership input!
The car looks like a ghost, goes like a bat out of hell, and wails like a banshee. Great job as always!
Great video Joe!!! This car is an evolution for the Corvette. I have been on the list to get one for 2.5 years now. I am frustrated with GM having to wait so long so I ordered a Mustang Dark Horse. 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!!! Thank you Lori for the awesome video filming. Blessings to you both!!! 💪👍❤️🇺🇸✝️
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.
I have to sell some of my Twinkies so I can afford this Z06
Thanks again Joe and Lori. like I've said before, you got a job that most of us would envy. Mopar or no car but the Z06 might change my mind
I am just so grateful that I get to share it with you!
You are a really good car salesman! I already know all about this car but it was very entertaining to watch this review!
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?
I wasn’t impressed with the stingray but the ZO6 is a beast but truthfully I’m not picking it over a GT3 with a stick show me the ZR1.
Oh we will for sure so stay tuned!
Prob is the GT3 is more money for less performance.
I wonder how long it would take me to get my first ticket in a rocket mobile like this…🤪👍😎
Man! She's beautiful!! My neighbor has an all black stingray! The start up and idle catches my attention everytime! I rode with him one time and he hit a record 0-60 in 2.8 seconds! Car sounds so seeet in every aspect! Great review team!
Thanks! Joe, Awesome Review & Awesome Video. Ever since they came out with this model I have had some concerns, one mainly was a Menacing Characteristic just didn't think the Sting Ray had it verses the C7 "But All" concerns have been met and addressed here. I agree with you "Hat's Off" they did an exceptional job here "I Absolutely Love It!!!" 😁😀😉😎😍
USA....No question the C8 for me. Thanks Joe.
Super Dope!!
I am so glad that you like this one.
That sinister black look is exact look i want for my future c8 z06; black exterior, black caliper, and black interior.😎♠️⚫🏴💯
Amazing!! Love it! Thanks Joe! Great 1!✌🏼
I would take the vette for the $
Thank you Joe and Steve for the “on throttle” experience!!!!😮
You are so very welcome!
@@RaitisRides good think you did not take a Twinkie while on throttle as the crème would be all over the interior with the G-forces!!!
I now decided to go with black. This car is amazing! Only thing I would change is convertible and black rims. Must be polished metal wheels for sure. Love the fact there’s no red (stitching, seat belts, calipers) I would even get rid of red seat belt clips lol. Red is just not masculine. Presenter did an awesome job with knowledge, passion, and humor. I usually don’t subscribe or make comments but I did both.
Red isn't masculine.. what the fuck does that even mean. And a black car w red stitching looks amazing u need some kind of other color to make it pop
Red in general is a feminine color google it. Exception when it represents fire so I would put red valve covers with engine compartment lights. Need to make important things like engine to pop not seats lol.
@@Joseph-cy3ns idk it's all opinion I guess like u even said u don't like black rims we heavily disagree on that lol
Lot of people do like black wheels but what they don’t know is wheels are one of most important features of a car so much it’s synonymous term with cars so it should not be hidden in the background like vent covers but it needs to be highlighted. Likewise, exhaust sound on this car is amazing so I wouldn’t go with black exhaust tips. I spend money where it’s important like carbon brakes.
Joe, i'm in Canada..i just ordered, last week, this car..except mine is a coupe so i can see the engine, which i optioned the red intakes on the engine!! I can't wait!
The sound is unbelievable
You are so very right about that!
Gr8 review Joe!!! The Z06 is a true track car, that you could actually "daily drive". What a value over its very few competitors! GM has knocked it out of the park with this one...
It’s not a value to the common man. Give me a break. And most specs are selling for close to $200k. Where’s that value you speak of?
One thing that's common between the two cars...even if you want one, they are very hard to get hold of.
Nice review Joe!!! What a sinister beast that Z06 is! Thanks for the fun review!!!
“Let’s see what you get for your money, to the door panels”!😂
Love it!😎
Blacked out spec 👍
Well engineered with a very special engine.
That square wheel is an absolute deal breaker for me and I suspect for other folks. Why would GM stand in their own way with that wheel? It's new on the market so it will sell anyway but at some point sales with fall off and that wheel isn't helping.
They can't keep them in dealerships🤣 you can't afford the wheel let alone the rest of the car🤣🤡
@@atg1338 did I hurt your feelings? What color is yours?
I hope the sales fall off so I can actually buy one off the lot 🤣
Nit picking the steering wheel isn’t a big deal you don’t even notice it. And it allows you to see the whole dash. If the steering wheel is a deal breaker you weren’t buying the car in the first place.
the black out color looks AMAZING
I was in Vegas with my wife celebrating my 30th birthday and we went on Turo and rented one just like this but in white not as customized. I can’t tell you how free you feel in one of these, it’s like nothing else. Period. Cruised down US15 to the Nevada/Cali border going about 120 the whole way. Just a absolute monster of the road. I recommend anyone to atleast take a day and rent one. It’s 100% worth it.
Beautiful car . Sexy exhaust note. Wonderful entertaining review. 😊🏎️
Thanks for taking the ride with me.
The z06 is the better value and track car for sure, however the gt3 has a manual option which gives it an edge in driving experience which justifies its higher price I’d say performance go for the z06 and drivers car go for the gt3
Manuals are overrated considering what the latest DCT's can do. They can upshift/downshift immediately when the paddle is engaged, so the only advantage a manual trans has is a third peddle. That's it.
@@cali2468 I think you're missing the point of why most people choose a manual which is for it's extra driver engagement, as well as more handling control. Sure it may not be as quick vs a machine, but I personally drive on the public road most of the time, and if we're splitting hairs with performance numbers it seems like that's more for the track or drag strip.
@@bmar916 I think you're missing the point considering I've owned many manual equipped performance vehicles. Surely more than you have. With that said, a good DCT is engaging in its own right. You should drive one and find out.
@@cali2468 I'm not bashing automatics, though it seems like you're here to bash manuals and apparently the number of cars I've owned or driven, lol. You can enjoy whatever you want to enjoy my friend!
@@bmar916 Well I tell you what, the statement you made that "...most people choose manuals" is downright false!
Thanks Joe!!! Loved the review!
18:48 I was about to lose it with anger if that white SUV had pulled out onto the street lol
Joe cracks me up sometimes with the commentary. Who fondles their front bumper and gets fingerprints all over it? 🤣 I only touch my front bumper when I’m cleaning it. Otherwise if someone’s fondling my front bumper they are going to have to have some serious questions to answer. 😅
Worth considering, compared to GT3 price. The Sound IS absolutely “head turning!” 🖤🖤🖤
This is an absolutely beautiful machine, I can't wait to buy mine...Corvette is just a beautiful monster...
great review as usual!
I visit different dealerships frequently and I’ve been seeing a lot of these with 100k mark ups which I think is just absolutely insane.
😭
At that point get a fucking Aston Martin or 911 TUrbo S
Wtf 😳 thats crazy!!!!!!
Dream car!! It’s perfect, that sound is amazing ❤ Chevy hit a grand slam
You are so right about that!
Joe very informative but better yet entertaining video.
Wow this review is so amazing and with some cinematography you can kinda evolve your reviews cuz this one hit the spot even without some cinematography
This is just such an amazing car, definitely have to trick a dealership into letting me drive one of these.
Been waiting for this one! Absolutely evil looking.
Another good one Raiti u sir are the best!
Hi, Joe, this Chevrolet c8 corvette Z06 is a super awesome car I don't know the Porche 911 Gt3 I've never seen a review but this one looks sinister, especially in black colour however Chevrolet has provided a v8 tremec dual-clutch transmission with 670 hp and 460 lb-ft it's a huge amount powerful 140 thousand dollars it's a lot nice Stichting everywhere throughout the cabin which is awesome the sound is perfect thanks
First. Imagine going to the stealership only to find they added 100k to the already too high price and are trying to get 250k for a Z06. Thats whats happening nationwide. 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
Danks braas bruuhs bro for dat and dis. yous right on dat money sonnie
All dealers do this.
Including Porsche dealers.
Yet you want GM to fail??? 😂
Great car...all black with red interior for me .... better than a porche hell noooooooo
Something you cannot beat? It is GM's adaptive 'magnetic ride' suspension, which is now offered to supercars (ie. Ferrari). Amazingly what a great design.
17:12
It almost sounds like Chevy's IndyCar V8 engine from the late-80's/early-90's when under caution/running well below 13,000 rpm.
Sure enough, this 5.5 is DOHC/32 valves - first such motor since the ZR1/Lotus LT5 (1989-95), I believe.
Great car and another great review from Raiti's Rides.
💯💯💯
Thanks Jimmy!
A world-class exotic, well done Chevrolet 👍🏽🏁
They did a great job ver st Chevy
Horace Slay Corvettes of Jackson Mississippi was a Corvette dealer for over 40 years. Around 2004 I stopped in the dealership and talked to Horace about the early ZO6 Corvettes. He told me they were the biggest scam Chevrolet put over on everybody! And this man knew his Corvettes
I should've figured that was you flyin' down US 19 in a blacked out corvette haha! Congrats on a million, Joe!
Thanks Mike for being so supportive.
Yes, I would 100% take this over a Porsche!
hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!
😂
The C8 Z06 is a great car for sure, but I was surprised with how soft and isolated the driving experience felt when I drove it. It felt more like a GT car than a sports car because of that. It puts out numbers, but it doesn't feel as fast or as sporty as it actually is.
Its probably because of that lack of torque it has
@@556andy100% was going to say the same thing, for 200k after markup I shouldn’t have to wait for it to build to feel fast.
Tq is for fun HP is for winning races, pick your poison 😂 (not saying this car isn’t a blast, you can see the look on his face the whole time lol)
Rather buy a lambo or ferrari. Corvette is not a super car
@@Paintball1212 if you got the money to drop for a Lamborghini more power to you, most people do not.
Joe your the man, great review as always!
I would prefer it on white with black and red interior. Excellent video as always. 👍
It sounds a lot like my Supra just a different tone. It also sounds like it’s got a ton of noise in the cabin, poor Joe is screaming to get his points in. The shifting and all are very similar to the way my Supra drives and shifts. This is just faster out of the box, that’s why I mod so I don’t have the feel like Ricky Bobby! 🎉
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!
Get your ears checked🤣 you are so wrong
@@atg1338My Supra has a 4.5” exhaust and yes the rev and shift patterns very similar. You aren’t very familiar with the ZF8 or the B-58 apparently. Quick shifts it’s strikingly similar with a different tone.
My Supra isn’t my only car either. I have 6 sports cars I don’t put all my eggs in one basket. Listen to a stock Supra with a fully modified exhaust only and you’ll be quite surprised at the similarities.
Your BMW Supra is shit compared to this. Stop the madness.
@@XboxAliveont even try to justify it... goofy take. The humble bragging gave me ed
The base C8 is faster than the Supra there’s no comparison to a Corvette.
I really love how they strayed away from the Ferrari-esque design they used to sort of have. The sharper and aggressive body really goes well with the sound and soul of the car.
But only remotely resembling a Vette anymore..
Awesome video! Congrats on getting the chance to drive these cars! You deserve it! Could you review an r8 or a 911 turbo s?
This car is a beautiful beast . If i was buying one I’d opt for the red interior. With the black it looks great.
Yep I did red seats and red stitching on my C8 with red brake calipers. Red and black always looks good.
