    The Corvette just proves that when American automobile companies want to, they can make quality products at affordable prices. I wonder how much these will go fo in 5-10 years.
    And I like the guy doing the review. He’s like a kid with a new toy, which is EXACTLY how a Vette makes a guy feel.

    I bought the base lt1 in red w black interior and red seats. 59995+ttl. What a blast. I have a 74 454, which is fun, but the c8 grows on you, better every day. Im 6' and that was the test. Lots of room. I got in the sample car in January and got out and ordered it. Bonus! It get 32mpg on hiway and 27 in town if you keep your foot out of it. Get one!!! Doug.

    I love that it is a hardtop convertible, plus the looks both up and down. I am happy that it has built-in rollover protection. I had to add a rollbar to my last Corvette convertible so I could track it. I am in the order queue for a Z06 convertible.

    You did a great job on this video. You didn't repeat yourself so the narrative moved on at a good pace. I was never bored. I would definitely order a C8 the way your feature car is equipped. There are a number of advantages to the convertible and only one downside. I'm on my second corvette the first one a 2005 stingray coupe. My current one is a 2019 Grand Sport coupe. I can handle the in and out of the targa roof but I would enjoy the ease of this convertible. The real advantage is you don't lose the rear storage when the tops down and that would be a real advantage on a trip. I wouldn't want to be forced to drive with the roof on because of space needed for luggage. The only downside is you can't see the engine. The engine looks so cool nestled behind the driver and that can be enhanced with options and after market embellishments.

    After watching your video. I took out my 2018 C7. Being 6'5.5, I felt like I was seating to high. Instead of having seat all the way back on both and having look just under the visor, I pulled seat forward and leaned back of seat back further and I was looking much lower on windshield. Draw back, had to put my left foot behind brake due to knee hitting dash! Hopefully, when I get the C8 convertible, I wont have to look so high and knee wont be an issue on dead step with the dash!!!

    I usually prefer coupes over convertibles. But I think the C8 convertible looks even better than the coupe. However, I think I will still go for the coupe, because of the engine being visible and the top is also removeable, for an open top experience.

      @Drive615  4 года назад +1

      Great question Joe. I tested this out and here are my results. With the top down and both side windows down and the back glass all the way down, you don't really get much buffetting, just general wind noise. With the top down, side windows up and back glass up, you get a little more noise and what sounded like a small bit of buffetting. The ideal driving scenario for me was: Top down, side windows up, and back glass down. Hope this helps!

    Thanks for the review ! So my question is what do you prefer the HTC or the coupe ? From looking at both review that you made I can clearly see you do have more headroom in the Convertible ! But is it as quick as the coupe ? You didn’t say your time a lunch control .

    Have you driven a 6th gen Camaro? How does it compare especially in just daily driving but also in the twisties. I had a Camaro and LOVED it but the corvette is intriguing.

    • @Drive615
      @Drive615  4 года назад

      I drove a 2020 2SS for one of my reviews. The corvette definitely got a ton of attention, but the Camaro exhaust had more personality and some great burbles.

    I have a 2021 2 LT, magnetic, 2 inch lift, convertible on pre order. Still waiting on my dealer getting an allocation. Sebring Orange. Your thoughts on Z51 package. Do I really really need it? Can still order $6G won’t break the bank.

    • @peterbosco4911
      @peterbosco4911 4 года назад

      If I get the Z51 package (comes with performance suspension), would that reduce or eliminate the need for the magnetic selective ride control, thereby saving me $2G?

      Personally for me I always buy Corvettes with as many options as possible. Makes it easier for resale. And the car gives you better performance.

    Nice review. Did you find the Natural leather looked dirty because of the ventilation openings? I am torn on the color due to that being a common critique on many of the message boards.

    • @Drive615
      @Drive615  4 года назад

      in one of my shots I could see how the shadows from the ventilation openings made it look a little darker. I guess it comes down to a personal preference at that point.

    Hows the wind buffeting with windows down & also top down? Both separate how is it?

    • @Drive615
      @Drive615  4 года назад +3

      Great question. I tested this out and here are my results. With the top down and both side windows down and the back glass all the way down, you don't really get much buffetting, just general wind noise. With the top down, side windows up and back glass up, you get a little more noise and what sounded like a small bit of buffetting. The ideal driving scenario for me was: Top down, side windows up, and back glass down. Hope this helps!

    • @fletcherh6072
      @fletcherh6072 4 года назад

      Only Auto this gen, there's rumors of a manual though. GM reported only 12% of C7 sales being manual, so they decided not to waste the money/time on it.

    • @millionairemindset1136

      Yep the last real corvette is the C7 my friend. The C8 is what most call an exotic look alike which is not what Corvette stands for.
