Here are 30 things that I dislike

I think it's great that such an opportunity is available. The sheer engineering alone is mind blowing. Look at what we have accomplished. Truly stunning.
Your channel is awesome man. I think the best part is how you educate us on how to successfully run a car business. There aren’t a lot of channels like yours and I appreciate all the business knowledge you give us! Keep up the great content!
Yes, I too like his informative videos on buying cars for cheap, fixing them up, detailing their appearance (with the brilliant help of Rasta German), and selling them for a profit to fund the next flip, ...but these videos where he fawns over cars is scarcely informative at all and is mostly cringey fanboy crap over new expensive toys. Hope his content improves where he shows his salesmanship with regular buyers and sellers, not boring videos of dealer auction garbage.
Absolutely hands down best C8 video I’ve watched and I’ve watched a LOT of them, thank you made me want one even more now lol
Thanks for watching and for the comment!
Great job! My sister wants to buy this model. This was very informative. Glad to see you correctly used the term "Head Up" display.
I know you like Vettes a bit more than me, but there is no denying the quality. It really is a spectacular vehicle. The Chevy dealer has a new C8 on the floor in my city. After watching this, I like the car even more. I decided that mid-engine was better long ago, so it’s more natural for me to like this car. The track school in Vegas sounds like fun. I wish they made the car in a manual though. I like rowing the gears, no matter what. Engine braking feels natural to me in traffic, etc. With an selectable auto, I sometimes forget what I’m doing with shifting, whereas clutching keeps me fully engaged.
Bro have you not seen the reports of these things? Quality is really lacking. Don’t drive too fast because they made the wheels wrong. Transmission problems already. It’s got super car looks and super car reliability
Defiantly hear the exhaust note change. More raspier but not over the top, sounds great Craig!
Craig I love the vette and I like when you film from the dealership. Like to see your inventory and shop
Great content on the c8.. really breaks down all the option Corvette has thank you.
Oh ya, i can hear the difference in sound, very nice!
“It would inhibit my view of the HUD” 😂 ….. you are probably the most articulate, most educated Used Car Salesman 👨🏾💼 {I didn’t even know there was an Emoji for used car 👨🏾💼, but there it is - pops up every time you write “used car salesman” 👨🏾💼 ….. 😂}
🤣putting that college education to work
Love your car. Just took delivery of my 22 coupe. Base model, I love it.
THAT IS A STUNNING CAR
I have had three Corvette’s a 1987 and two 1994s. I particularly love the style of the C4s which were copied from Ferrari. However, the electronic sensors that control everything from anti-lock brakes, and skid control thru cruise control are not available anymore except used. In fifteen or more years the C8 will be up the creek if GM screws it like it screws the C4s now. But the C8 will be totally crippled if they do so whereas the 4 isn’t.
The C8 is an amazing car. I like how the pictures for the passenger side heated/cooled seats face the passenger and the drivers side seat switches pictures face the driver.
It’s like an American super car. I think it’s awesome. It’s looking like it comes with super car reliability also, which kind of sucks. Thanks GM
3:01 seriously though, 9 months isn't that bad. In 1988 I ordered a Pontiac Grand Prix SE with the 5 speed transmission. I had to wait 6 months for that. (it was named motor trend's car of the year back when that meant something). I waited for the 5 speed because I drove one with the auto and it was a dog. The 5 speed made it come alive. Considering the times we're living in, 9 months was pretty good.....
Great video. Interesting, fun, & informative. No repeating either. 👍👍👍 I wanted to see the engine, however.
Hello Craig, I don't know if you know about your New Corvette but please investigate the recall on the weakness in the wheels breaking at high speed I don't want to see anything happen to you or anyone riding in it.
Great video and thank you for sharing!
Craig has his own AD , Thats Bad ass
The corvette remains the only GM vehicle I'd consider.
I really like this Vette...!!
Our 2023 3LT HTC non-Z51, I will never track it, has magnetic ride, performance exhaust, front lift, carbon flash painted top, nacelles, low rear spoiler (easier to get stuff in and out of the trunk), wheels, mirrors, and other trim pieces. Our all season tires are much better when it gets below 50 degrees, Northern Illinois gets there and we drive it until there is salt on the roads then it’s parked. I am 75 years old, this is our second Vette, and it is the best vehicle I have ever driven.
Really pumped, I have a C8 coupe on order. Hopefully I get it in the next few months. Glad the red interior came out so good. I wanted that but thought it would clash so I went with black inside. You should show the LED taillights. They look incredible with turn signals
I want the Z06 but it’s going to be hard to get one 🤔I will see what I can do.Awesome video ✊
5:32 "I can give the second key to my wife" (which I haven't) BWAHAHAHAHA no shit sherlock! lol......"craig, where's my key"? "sorry honey, I keep forgetting it at the shop" lololol
You definitely hear a difference in the exhaust👍😎🇨🇦
I am so glad I got the track package. I need the super sticky tires the track package and the downforce package……. 2 minutes later…………. I get 28mpg because I don’t drive this car hard 🤔😂 if he is getting 28mpg I probably drive my minivan harder then the car he needed the track package on
Great video! Your viewers have to understand that car looks so much better in person. You waited nine months? That’s like giving birth to a childcan u imagine the repair bills when all that high tech breaks down
Nice car! I have a C6 Z06 and it’s a handful!! I love the new one. Definitely looks exotic. I can’t believe we live in an age where performance of super car level can be had for 35k (my car) and looks and performance for less than 100k with this. Great stuff!! These things just need to come down. Dealer markup is criminal at this time.
The Z mode is a customizable button. It does come pre set by the factory for track type performance.
Also noticing that you kept all of the plastic and even the tags on the keys... Are you going to flip this or is it going to be a garage Queen with all original delivery stuff????
Nah. I just like it looking new😁
I have always dreamed of having a Corvette. The C8s in my opinion look so much like a Ferrari, which I also love. The new Z06 is what I am holding out for. That is the one I think for me.
I would say that is excellent value.Considering you paid about the same for the Porsche.
I completely agree
Soon be 2022 and you will need a new car you said last week about super cars having paddle shifts im so glad my neighbours daughters smart car is a super car
Thats a great looking car.Corvette have looked awful before this and after the Mako style.They finally got it right.
IMO,a 2 tone paint doesnt suit the car.And the big wing spoiler looks cheezy,aftermarket and rice rocket.Yours looks awesome as is.
Also,every time i see one of these,i think ferrari/lambo.I think it looks as great or better.Its an instant classic.
Craig you can order red seatbelts. I ordered them for my Camaro SS. I did not put them in yet but soon.
How did you get this vehicle for MSRP? I had a dealer tell me even if I ordered it there is a markup. Any dealerships you recommend to order from that do not charge over MSRP?
Yes u can definitely tell the difference in the sound
Sharp car! I plan to buy one in a few years.
Definitely heard the difference switching to Z mode!
Z mode exhaust sounds much better/deeper.. love it!
The MAIN reason that I don't like the the car is:
I CANT AFFORD IT!
IT'S GORGEOUS
Bought the same wheels for my c5 on my profile pic lol love all corvettes
I’m interested in the C8 Z06 and I think it’s the best wide body one ever. What do you think the price will be?
I wish I knew. I also wish I could get a realistic number in line on one
I bet anywhere from 85k-92k
that is one sweet ride
Just wait until you service the transmission which is required more often than other automatics.
Or when you really open it up and the wheels break. They made the damn wheels wrong
Aren't they having all kinds of issues with the transmissions leaking?
Gosh... Do you miss the manual transmission at all though...?
Excellent review, thanks.
Commented that you have to get the black roof when you asked in a previous video. Should’ve watched Streetspeeds video about how much better it looks.
At 6’-5”, it looks like the C8 drop top will be the first Vette I will be able to fit in and likely purchase.
Craig, I don't know what GM actually calls it, but the MyKey name is a Ford thing.
Thanks for the videos I recently started selling cars cause of you 👍 I had already worked on my own cars so finding a used car to fix and then selling has been cool. Can you go more in depth about selling. I usually sell locally and I have posted on eBay but I’m not sure if I should try something else too thanks.
I really enjoy working on my own cars. I’m about to buy a beater to fix up in the next week. Trying to buy an early 2000s civic or Corolla for under $1k, put some hours and a couple hundreds bucks in it and see if I can get at least $2k
Greg if you had a choice between this C8 and that 20 yr old Ferrari that you bought from Florida which give you nightmares which one would you pick for long term use if that Ferrari didn't had those issues?
Well done sir!!
Great video. What happened to the lakefront house
It's a disaster. Still working on it
A cunning linguist?....almost makes me wish I wasn't leaving the 70th comment!😜 Nice car and great channel, Craig.
😆
I noticed that too. Nice play on words.
Sadly, not a snowflakes chance in hell of seeing one of these in Australia.
i closed my eyes while listening... i heard you change it!
I wouldn't even get a Ferrari after that. But I never drove either one 🤷🏾♂️😂
You should have choosen black wheels with maybe red edges as trim. The car has mostly two colour (black and red) and the rims in a other colour is making the car looking weird. thats is for my opinion.
I agree
he really loves this car lol
Yeah, no kidding. And it's getting goddamn annoying.
@@sejembalm I agree ive been watching him for nearly 2 years before he even got close to blowing up and recently every god dam video is him showing his cars, i love his style and him as a person aswell as this being the only channel i actually give my feedback on. It is nice to see how much he enjoys it but mabye film that part and just don't put it in the video so you can still enjoy the moment lol
Film what and don't put it in the video?
@@FlyingWheels I understand that you love to talk so much about your corvette but mabye your editor could leave it out in a few videos
Nice car, how much more legroom is there compared to c7s? I’m 6’5 and could not fit in previous gen, hoping this is roomier
It's not made for big people
I’m 6’3 and think it’s snug.
That is one fine car. Would be perfect with black wheels
Order RED Seatbelts, Right Now! 👍🏼🇺🇸
I gave my deposit over a year ago and still NO CAR! I guess the "squeky wheel gets the grease"!
Just good timing
Will you get some new wheels
Who wants do play a drinking game for every time he says he hand picked this car 🤣🤣
Did you get your name in the cabin?
dude your house is soooooooooooo nice also..... :o
Is this really that much better than a GTR in the metrics that you discussed here? GTR is a little heavier and more GT than the vette is i'll admit but man I'm partial to both.
How did you not go with black wheels
craig, I'm 6'3 275. will i fit in it?
Did you not tell us that you just went into a dealer ship to enquire and what a coincidence they just had a cancellation that very day and you were able to jump on it
I jumped in on someone else's number. The dealer only had 1 allocation. I got that allocation
Any advice to get for msrp?
How long will you keep this car for?
Thx for watching!
It’s called a spliter Craig
I heard the difference at idle
Hand picked? She's a beauty as is.
Have you changed your mind again??? A few months ago you were driving the tycan and said you liked it better than the C8 for the driving expearance. Granted its in another price category but you said with the corvette sitting at home you would rather go electric. What gives?
That’s a lot of things, wonder if anyone else would never care and still buy lol 👋🏾 🤷🏾♂️
Ty FW!
It’s called a splinter Craig
It’s beautiful! The car would looked even sicker if you painted those wheels gloss black imo
Love it! I think the car would look even more bad ass if you painted those wheels gloss black
Agree!
The drunk looks like the Mach 1 from Speed Racer.
nothing is louder than a flomaster 10
I dont need it much louder than it is
did he really say cunning linguist? 19:40
Things you need to know...
1.You'll never have one.
8:08 foghat slow ride......lol SO not the song to be listening to in a C8 mid engine sports car lol......
I'm bothered that they are calling it a convertible...which, I suppose it truly is. My issue is that it's really more like a power targa than a classic convertible. I guess it's the design? But "convertible" sounds sexier than "power targa".
I'll say it again, I apprecihate you. Just kidding.......I think?
25: Acura NSX…
Z mode has nothing to do with the z51 package... every c8 has it
Jesus drove a C8
ridiculous this is the first video on YT
Je BLO i think you are a money olfactory
Yea it’s a great looking car but that transmission problem sounds like a nightmare after just 5k to 15k miles lol
It’s an American super car with super car reliability. Thanks GM. I’d still drive the hell out of one if I could afford it
We have very different tastes. How anybody could love the standard wheels escapes me completely. They are just plain ugly (I've got the Spectra Gray ones and they look like 100x better). Convertible with black nacelles, top, and A pillar looks 10x better. Much better spec would have been Red Mist, Natural Interior, Spectra Gray, black top.nacelles/a pillar.
need black wheels
