Stop and go traffic with a Manual is a pain. So that’s why I drive my 2016 ZO6 manual part time. Love it… PS. I did trade in my auto ZO6 for the manual. I needed to SHIFT. Good luck. Have fun. I enjoyed the video.
would love a demo of the paddle shifters, heard the automatic isnt the best but would love your thoughts since you have driven both. congrats! can you detail the issues you mentioned on the manual C7Z?
You should be able to find a lot of stuff online about the clutch not holding up well. I believe the term is "chattering", and it typically wears out prematurely. I did have a Yellow C7 Z06 on the channel for 2 videos, and it was an automatic with 70,000 miles and 0 issues. We'll see though!
This thing is awesome. How are you liking the automatic transmission? I am in the market for a C7Z but I have heard the A8 can have issues. Would love your input
The auto is really good. I had a yellow one on the channel that was a 2019 as well, A8, 70,000 miles and no issues. We'll see how this holds up. The manual is more fun though without a doubt.
Your 60-130 will get more than .4 sec faster if you take the rear aero off. I go down to stage 1 when at the drag strip or 60-130 and put the stage 2 back on for daily/car shows. Went 7.5 to 7.1 sec 60-130 from s2 down to s1 and yours is stage 3. That should only be on a circuit IMO. It’s just a ton of drag on the car. Worse mileage and top end.
@@maximborodyuk3773 congrats on having an opinion that excludes countless facets as to why people buy corvettes. I’ve bought three and your comment is thoughtless as it gets. Pointing out how to get a faster 60-130 in zero way means someone bought a car for 60-130. Your brain is rot.
Maserati Granturismo brother here! Z06 C7 Auto is the bad transmission one(over heats), not the manual. Also if you’re from NC I think I know where you bought this from lol. Car looks bad ass man! Enjoy it. P.S. I totally understand why you want to sell the Maserati GTC. 
Mannnnnnn I REALLY don't want to sell the Maserati GTC, It's SUCHHHH an enjoyable car. No other car is more fun than to just drive in a straight-line at 2,000 RPM lol
Okay, what's screeching in the background in the first couple minutes of the video where you're doing the intro? There's some bird or wildlife going in the background, lol.
@@ProfessorDrives lmao, I had to take my headphones off a few times to be sure it wasn't someone/thing around me. Congrats on the car man, can't wait to see what you do to it. You're making me really consider upgrading from a z51 to a z06!
@robertmartin265 I agree the C8 tech is better and that it looks better but I think the z06 is faster. I have driven both and the z06 is scary fast even flooring it at 50mph. Now if you said the c8z vs c7z it would have been more of a match.
This car aint NOTHING compared to the MAserati man. Im sorry. This car just does not have the same impression on people and Im pretty sure you can tell. Its maserati vs chevy. Masi wins
The sounds this car makes does something to me 😩
It makes me moan violently.
Is that LT4 I got the zl1 same engine is fkn crazy
I bought a 2016 Z06. Was overheating. I sold it fast. They fixed problem in 17. Tire burner 😂
Good to know to stick to the 2017 and up C7's!
Sick car unfortunate its an autotragic

What??? Shifting more = more fun. Maybe you should like eat a cheeseburger or something to get your strength up.

Bro your car looks amazing! 🔥
Congratulations!
Congrats on the upgrade to a 2019 too, should get some of the zr1 upgrades with it. Owning a ‘18 z06 has been a dream, will keep it forever
What are you using to film sir? When you’re driving? Gopro? Mount? Thank you
Just a GoPro with a head mount :)
it's a wonderful toy........when you are too manly for a European car.

@@ProfessorDrives Thank you so much for this insight! Keep up the great work man!
What is wrong with the manual version? I thought it was the automatic that had the overheating issue?? Was there something else?
This is the EXACT spec I'd get, fkn beautiful...

buying corvette for 60-130 is brainrot to begin with

No, that was the 2015,2016 models 2017-2019 has updated cooling.
prodigy do research before u post 17 thru 19 the overheating issue was fixed
@@chrissmith-yg5xn no, why would I research? The internet is not my job but RUclips does pay me ;)
Congrats on the new addition to the channel! It looks very sharp.

Nice! I want to get one in the future!
Lol I got a red and black zo6😂
What's the name of rims sir?
Beautiful car,best color combo.You should definitely do a video on the difference between the auto and stick,how to power delivers etc.
Will do :)
80 for a basemodel seems alittle high. If it was a 2/3 trim maybe but I guess the miles is the only thing driving the price up
beautiful car, and sounds amazing! Congrats!
Also, did you film this right next to Jurassic Park??! lol
$80k? It was in the 80s new…
the new vets going mid engine has ensured the price of these will never fall
$80k? I would’ve taken a gt350 low miles 19-20 and just live life till it dies lmao 🤣
Ahhhhh that would be tough to choose a GT350 over a C7 Z06. They're both really good, but the experience a C7Z gives you is other-worldly
Why would he buy something knowing the engine will blow up?
@@hpickettz34 ESP warranty and it’s covered absolutely no risk
@@xfrozenchillx it's a Ford, they will find some lame excuse not to cover it.
@@xfrozenchillx your engine blowing up because there's 10 spots it can leak isn't worth any warranty in the world
Bro enjoy life. You can still save money
Did you guys buy this from Sean?
wait what wheels are they thooo
Not trying to be rude but i know a c7 z06 vs zr1 from the front . Nice car regardless
he never said it was a zr1...
He said it's a z06
Why didn’t you get a C8 Stingray? Looks way better. Better traction and is faster. I’ve had 3 C7s and 1 C8. C8 hands down. Same price if not lower
C7s will go as low as 30k and C8s will go as low as high 50s. Where are you getting your numbers from?
C8 stingray is faster off the line compared to c7z but the c7z is much faster and will quickly catch up and pass the stingray
@@suttsd I owned a vet like yours. C8 is 10 times better at the same price
@robertmartin265 I agree the C8 tech is better and that it looks better but I think the z06 is faster. I have driven both and the z06 is scary fast even flooring it at 50mph. Now if you said the c8z vs c7z it would have been more of a match.
@@suttsd scary because no traction
Replace the clutch
My c7z is the slowest performance car I got now. Plan on making it my fastest. Got to get them mods in
Riiiiight
@@boost1728 got a fbo e85 hellcat that is the fastest and two boost coyote mustangs. So yeah the c7z is the slowest since its stock
@@TyZo6lmao
@@boost1728 guess trx is the lowest if you count it as well
@@TyZo6keep dreaming 😂

lol Maserati that zo6 will smoke that Maserati and it looks way better
@chrissmith-yg5xn it'll beat it but I think the maserati looks better and sounds better. And is way more fun with the paddles
80k ? Sir , you were robbed 😅
The wrapped roof is gorgeous
