The 2003 Corvette C5 Z06 in the video is UP FOR SALE!! Car has 700 RWHP and almost 40k in mods. Has been well maintained and in really good shape. Asking price is $30,000. DM me on Instagram if interested. IG: @SUBZERU_ . Thank you all for watching the video!
@@ChristianHudnell seems like it was designed for adults and adheres to the traditional Corvette style. The C8 is trying to be an Aventador with the emphasis on lines and even I can say the styling of lights being more linear, but that's my 2 cents.
Bought the same car back in May as far as the 19 z06. Same color minus the c7 package. I have the 2lz and I love it. Mine is an auto and it’s still a blast! When u see a c7 it’s still is no mistaking it for nothing other than a Corvette! The c8 gets lost as far as it’s identity when compared to some other mid engine cars.. I think u made an awesome choice in the c7 z! Keep up the great content! Congrats on ur ride...trust me I feel ur pleasure!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I agree and feel the same way. The C7 Z06 just is the perfect blend of corvette and exotic to me. Love this car and congrats on getting yours as well. Thanks for compliments
Everything on c8 looks way better in person, I had a white c8 park next to my black c7 and I blown away, on paper i thought the c8 kinda looked bad but in person its breath taking!
Been debating between a C7 Z06 or getting a C8 Z51. Currently have a 2015 C7 Stingray with 15k miles. Leaning towards the Z06 for the performance and widebody look. So hard to choose, they are both beautiful cars 😭.
Want to race get the z06 still will turn heads for both sides normal people and car people, zo6 will win races and the c7 is a beautiful car. C8 is beautiful but the only thing that justifies the price is the rarity but they are still being made
@@MrAleB305 still haven't traded in, also possibly considering trading in for a 2023 Toyota Camry TRD for more practicality, but we'll see what happens.
I like the fact the C8 has a mid-engine layout but the C7 looks more badass. Also until Chevy comes out with the Z06 the C7 wins the horsepower war. I love the color & carbon fiber design on your Z06.
Thanks! Yeah I agree, the C8 is cool but the C7 Z06 styling, power, driving feel, and having a manual to me are almost timeless and will be an amazing car for a very long time
nice vid...I may have the same car as you..a 19 zo6 -sebring orange with the full factory carbon fiber package-manual transm......love my car ...I've had it 4 goen on 2yeats.
There is nothing that GM makes that is worth that kind of money much less the $15-$20K markup!!! At that point, buy a used 911 Twin Turbo and you'll be miles ahead!
IMHO, I think the C8 is a beautiful car, but it just doesn't look like a Corvette anymore. I felt pretty much the same way about the C7 when it came out, but I can still see the 'Corvette' in its body lines. I've owned a C5 convertible for almost 20 years, and I still love it. I'm sure the C8 will grow on me. Sad to think this is probably the last totally gasoline powered Vette there will ever be.......
I was debating between the two, and I chose the C8 because I am paying $69k for my 2021 C8 Z51 with mag ride (MSRP), and C7 Z06's are in the 80-100k range. The used market is kinda crazy right now.
@@Enzo-tg8uo it’s due to supply and demand issues in the entire vehicle market. I’ve noticed from what I’ve seen the last two weeks prices are slowing down. The z06 are going back down again also. Saw a 2015 z06 today with only 41k miles for 62k clean title 2lz.
If you can find C8 Z51 for $75,000-$80,000 (brand new), let me know and I'll buy them ALL!!! Yes, ALL of them. We have 500 people on waiting list willing to pay $95,000 - $110,000.
That's a pretty cheap dealer price. Most are going for 70-92k, but it all depends on year and mileage. Extras like the z07 also matter. Most people would probably pay 84k for that car. My 2019 c7 grand sport convertible with 3k miles was 79k when I got it this past June. I paid pretty much what it was going for in my state. I was fine with it though. I almost went with a 2017 z06 that was around the same price, but I felt like it was better getting the fully loaded newer gs. Being a 2019, it's the last of its kind too.
I really wish Chevy would've gone down the C6 design route with the C8 (curvy lines). The rear end of the car just doesn't look good. It looks pretty good from the front and front quarter views, but that rear end is just.... Droopy. It sags in the middle. I prefer the C6 to the C7, but I definitely prefer the C7 to the C8. Can't beat the design of a front-engined car, IMO. Designers have much more to work with on a front engine layout than they do with a mid engine layout. I should be adding a C7 Z06 to my garage here in a few weeks! 😀
I agree, I always thought doing a newer c6 style rear and taillights would have looked so good on the C8. Having both the C6 and now C7 I agree. You will love the C7 Z06, congrats and comment back if you get it. This car is always bringing a smile to my face when I drive it. Thanks for the comment!
It's a no brainer you buy the C706 for 2 reasons 1 it's the last front engine Corvette ever made 2 it's the last manual Corvette you can buy all or huge things for resail
My 2017 Z06 with 8,000 miles and M7, KBB is telling me it's about $78,000 if I sell to private party (Excellent condition) Funny thing is MSRP was 83k, this chip shortage thing is driving used car prices up. Do you think I should wait or sell right now? Is it going to keep going up? It's unbelievable this chip thing I heard it's going to last awhile. If it's near MSRP I definitely will sell since I will make some good money on it. And I might get a C8Z51 or wait for C8Z06 I will see. Thanks for the awesome video I enjoyed every min of it.
Right! I was lucky top buy my Corvette at a sweet spot but thats an amazing rate for you Z06. I agree, selling would be tempting especially if you were trying to get a C8. Both are really good options for sure. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel
You’re an idiot. You obviously don’t know the history of Corvette. Zora would find your comment a disgrace. The C8 is every bit of Corvette and the American dream that you can put. It’s $59,000 for a mid engined, V8, with a great interior, styling, and performance. Disgraceful comment.
The best part about Corvettes are they give best of both worlds. I like that they have a mid engine exotic style and the C7 is a sports car muscle style. I really like corvettes direction and as far as performance it was a good change
The appearance of the C8 has nothing to do with a real Corvette. It's a failed copy of other brands, with an ugly backside. It is a pity that they are throwing their own identity to pieces.
They tried to make the c8 too Luxery supercar like. C7 got that classic vett look and feel, nice American muscle feeling while still pretty modern. C7>c8
GM gave you everything in the C8 to wrap it how you like. You can actually pull off a Lamborghini sian look on the C8, the C7 is too busy to achieve that look. If you follow the headlights with a black strip of carbon flash wrap to the doors on the C8, it hilights the front line aerodynamics. The C7 line dosent do that. The pillars for the roof can also be done to flow into the rear engine bay, but others have done that already. You cant get that effect on the C7, and many have tried. The C8 with a skilled detail can become the most exotic looking car around, but the C7 dosent have the lines to do it. The C8 needs those Maserati wheels or Lamborghini wheels with the large honeycombs off Alibaba to really set it off. I am surprised nobody figured out this.
The new C8 is really cool and in person so nice as well. I like both because they both allow whichever preferences to be met. Chevy and GM have made 2 truly cool cars in their own ways. Thanks for the comment
Hey! thanks for stopping by. What I love about the c7 and c8 platforms is you have best of both worlds with these. Mid engine exotic or front engine sports car. Thanks for watching bro
Lol how in the fuck did that guy get a c8 for 75k ? I'm based out of Miami Florida and these dealers are charging up to 110k for a sting ray with 4 hundred and something horsepower ridiculous. Once the c8 z06 comes out the c8 sting rays are gonna drop dramatically in pricing.
Clear winner is , The C7 Corvette 👍 The C8 is not a Corvette , its a wannabe McLaren , Ferrari super car ! PS. I would’ve had much more respect for Chevrolet if they had continued the front engine Corvette line and just added the C8, but yet under a different name , Like Ford did with the GT-40 !
Chevy really screwed up the C8. They started with a clean sheet of paper and could have done something spectacular but instead, they came up with a half aborted attempt at a supercar. 1. The rear end look hideous - they copied the taillights from a Camero which is a lower brand for their top tier sports car. 2. The interior with the HVAC controls down the center rail looks amateurish and is hard to use. 3. The fit and finish is lacking. 4. Problems have already came up and are well documented on RUclips by owners - some are pretty rediculous considering these problems are not vehicle specific problems! GM is definitely moving in the right direction but unfortunately, the competition is also stepping up their game so the benchmark now is higher then ever.

I personally prefer the c8 more but I wanna buy a 2015 c7
I wanted the c8 for about 7 months, went to the dealership and saw a c7 and c8 in person and fell in love with the c7. They’re both amazing.
The C7s in person are so beautiful and are one of the best made cars in the last 10 years for sure
C7 🔥

In person the C8s look so good! They are really good looking machines for sure. They are really nice
I experienced the opposite.
Darn, I thought they were going to race. My money is on the C7 Z06. Thanks for the video!
C7 definitely looks better, but I might be bias lol

@@MrAleB305Funny, I did the same exact thing!! Haha It was a great car. Loved the interior.
For me the C7 for some row your own gears fun but the C8 is goalz, thanks for the comparison man.
Anytime! Thank you for watching. Yeah the C8 has is a beautiful and cool car in person but I love having a manual for sure
Nothing like the deep rumble of the C7 Z06 and the manual trans. C7 just looks better and has better lines.
C7 looks great with some additional features
Yeah same! I like the C7 platform styling. Thank you for watching
C7 all day long
I love the c7 more as well too
I'll take that c8 all day long, N SUPERCHARGE MY SELF N MAKE 1000 HP,+

The zo6 has 617 hp I just don’t get it
@@vqc4462 WHERE in the Hell did you come up with 617hp???
The C7 still holds the power advantage, at least the C7 ZR1 does. But the C8 gets more power to the ground......
@@milojanis4901 sorry 650hp
Really good comparisons and I like how you show many differences between the two
Thank you! It is really cool to see these 2 cars up close
I got you homie. The content is getting really good, swear
Thanks a lot bro! I appreciate it. Just wanna keep making good content
When it comes to roof. You can option your C8 just like the c7 2 tone
Oh really nice! That is really cool and good to know thanks for the info
Hold up!!! That's your z06?! Congratulations man. I just checked, I'm about to watch the other video you posted a few days ago. This is awesome.
Thanks so much bro! YEAH!!! I finally got my z06 man. Watching your videos helped motivate me to get another one too
nice vid...I may have the same car as you..a 19 zo6 -sebring orange with the full factory carbon fiber package-manual transm......love my car ...I've had it 4 goen on 2yeats.
The problem with this comparo is that you can’t buy a MSRP C8 unless you wait 1-2yrs and the ones in inventory are at least 15k add on.
There is nothing that GM makes that is worth that kind of money much less the $15-$20K markup!!! At that point, buy a used 911 Twin Turbo and you'll be miles ahead!

Yo!! Your car slaps dude but the start of the 2003 sounded pretty lit 🔥 !
2020*
Hey bro! Yeah the 2020 and 2003 sound really good. Thank you for watching bro
Yeah!
did you ever make the follow up video? the driving comparison
Hey! I actually am gonna do a comparison hopefully soon now after both carrs now broken in and had more exprience
C7 all the way.
Awesome video fammo!!!!!!
Thanks a lot bro! I appreciate you for watching
corvette for life 🔥
Bro! I literally just seen the orange vette at the dealership on Sahara! Nice pick up man, i wish i could've afforded it at the time
Hey! Yeah that was the one, it was so beautiful and I am glad I found it. Yeah it wasn't cheap haha
C8 anyday
The C8 is so cool!
I was debating between the two, and I chose the C8 because I am paying $69k for my 2021 C8 Z51 with mag ride (MSRP), and C7 Z06's are in the 80-100k range. The used market is kinda crazy right now.

@@ChristianHudnell is there a reason why they are going up so much ?? Do you think it will go back to normal soon ?

@@carltonpulliam4068 WOW!!!! They gave you only $21k for your '08Z???!!!! You shoulda called me, lol!!!!
Good video! Love both of them
Thank you, they are both beautiful cars
You can find the C7 ZO6 now for around $60,000 crazy
Yeah! They are very amazing cars for the price
I think the Z06 prices have been going up for some reason.
Yeah but with a warranty? And low miles ?
@@Rogerdiddy yeah because these C8 corvette are going for 20k 30k over sticker
Not anymore
Man now that you pointed out the C7 mirror , it looks goofy!
Hahaha yeah compared to the C8, they are haha
Hate how the convertible on the c8 doesn't have see through glass for the engine. Other brands figure this out.
Yeah that would have been a nice touch for sure
Did I missed the part where talk about the side vents?
II forgot to talk about the C8 vents just showed them in the video BROLL my bad
C7 Z06 (Z07) with a stick is a no brainer!
I agree and I feel the same way

Okay I will, I don't know any available currently
I bought my 17 c7 z06 3lz z07 package 26kmiles for 79k. Is that right price?

I want a z06 but the market is absolutely ridiculous I can’t justify paying base c8 money for a car with 60k miles……that’s what pushed me for a c8
Wow, the prices haven't changed much in 4 years.
The black c5 on the road looked better than both of them though 😊
Very nice bro !
Thank you brotha!
C7 for me
Great video thank you!
I have a C7 Z06 and would never pick the C8 over mine. Cute from a dig but that’s about it.
Drive on Mullholand bro with them and that would be cool.
yeah trying to decide z06 or c8 hmmmmmm
I like the C7Z06 better especilly for prices now
you can bet that c7 z06 is and will forever hold value better. Plus it looks way better. The C8 is nice but looks like an Ali Baba lambo

GM gave you everything in the C8 to wrap it how you like. You can actually pull off a Lamborghini sian look on the C8, the C7 is too busy to achieve that look.

Yeah very true. The higher model corvettes seem to retain value much longer and better as well
Gloves???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn't want to contaminate the car with those nasty CCP viruses!!!
everything about the c7 is better than the c8..
Clear winner is ,
The C7 Corvette 👍
The C8 is not a Corvette , its a wannabe McLaren , Ferrari super car !
PS. I would’ve had much more respect for Chevrolet if they had continued the front engine Corvette line and just added the C8, but yet under a different name ,
Like Ford did with the
GT-40 !
C8 is $100k. Dumb.
Yeah the car is expensive
Chevy really screwed up the C8. They started with a clean sheet of paper and could have done something spectacular but instead, they came up with a half aborted attempt at a supercar.
1. The rear end look hideous - they copied the taillights from a Camero which is a lower brand for their top tier sports car.
2. The interior with the HVAC controls down the center rail looks amateurish and is hard to use.
3. The fit and finish is lacking.
4. Problems have already came up and are well documented on RUclips by owners - some are pretty rediculous considering these problems are not vehicle specific problems!
GM is definitely moving in the right direction but unfortunately, the competition is also stepping up their game so the benchmark now is higher then ever.
I'll take the Mustang that gaps these overpriced foreign exotic wannabes.
A beautiful C7 or a copy cat wanna be exotic ugly C8?
C7 all day.
