THANK YOU! I pick up my ‘24 this weekend and my salesman has already told me he knows nothing about the car! He’s just gonna give me the keys and say there you go 🤦♂️. This helps A LOT!
Did you request your 15% discount and your three free oil changes because you paid full price but were subjected to an idiot salesman who promised you a totally different experience They didn’t do that for me either the Customer house or depend on the BS that the shills on the Internet promises will happen
My 24 was just produced . It’s being delivered from New Hampshire to Rockland NY . This is my first bucket list sports car after retirement. It’s just a drop off And this video is informative . Ty There are no videos that discuss the XPEL. I hear it can void a warranty for the headlight. I don’t understand that. One package I am getting is tire and wheels for 7 years . But if it’s sold prior are there refunds? Complicated today , the dealers like to converse in emails. I grew up in a different era. We interacted !
If you push in the start stop button and hold it in a few seconds without your foot on the brake it will go into a mode where you can make any adjustments to the controls on the car without starting it every time. Learned this on my c7 and also works on my c8. Nice feature. Just push once finished and will turn off.
This is perfect. My new C8 comes next week and I bought it from an out-of-state dealer so I won't have the benefit of a walkthrough. Thanks for posting!
@@jamesw.6931 Yeah more or less. Had to buy some overpriced inclusions: lo-jack, clear bra (which is worth it but they priced it high), tinted windows (same as before) but otherwise got it at MSRP. White HTC 2LT Z51 with carbon flash everything.
Me either mine is a 23 Annuversary it had 1500 miles on it the salesman knew some basics but the forum and the manual have helped me the dealer not much
Yes. I just bought a brand new pair of new balance shoes. Last ones didn’t have enough white on them. I don’t really do cargo shorts. I’m more of a blue Jean shorts kinda guy. They go great with my knee high socks and brand new shoes. 😉
No, no, no... y'all are behind the times... need to transition to Hoka shoes. They're what all the cool folks are wearing now! (says my 40-something-year-old son... actually he says they're the most comfortable shoes he's ever owned. This is not a commercial; I don't own any; I'm just grinning over the New Balance comments!)
My C8 salesman I. Miami was very knowledgeable about the car. He helped me pair my phone, get the trial on star set up, and demonstrated the one person top removal process for my coupe.
Wow-thank you!! I so wish I had watched this before I got my new C8 yesterday morning. I could have taught my salesman many things. INCREDIBLY helpful. Again, thx!
I’m really enjoying my new 2023 C8 corvette coupe in amplify orange with carbon metallic it’s revolutionary memorable unforgettable incredible remarkable phenomenal. The word I’m looking for is Beast, Exotic car look!
Ed Newman Chevy was 1 block from my house. I remember sitting in a red and white 58 Convertible for hours making engine noises. It was front and center in their showroom. I guess they they it was good PR to have a kid like it so much. BTW years later I bought my 75 Monte there. A dog of a 350. Later bought used 75 4d Malibu 350 that blew the doors off the Monte.
I bought my 2023 from Robert a few weeks ago, and Im extremely satisfied with his professionalism. I’m not happy with GM’s decision to remove the rear hatch key lock. If the solenoid ever goes bad, regardless of a dead battery or not, drilling a 3” hole on the hatch deck (according to GM) is not acceptable. GM needs to step up to the plate and offer 2023 and newer owners a key lock for the hatch.
Gotta say, I was unbelievably disappointed when I went to corvette world, Dallas. I was there two days ago, as of this message. I am probably going to buy a new 2024 2lt convertible, but I wanted to check out, in person, the cars and all the potential options. I called ahead of time and whoever answered was enthusiastic that I come by and see them -- but when I arrived, with my partner, despite being numerous salespersons available, not a single one bothered to approach me. So I directly called over one; don't even know his name because he didn't give it, and tried asking specific questions about what options the current 2023 I was looking at had. Instead of telling me anything about the car, he just told me to read the sheet in the front windshield. Stared at me while I picked it up and tried finding the info I wanted out of the unfamiliar and poorly organized sheet. So I went back to talking / thinking aloud about the car, and he said nothing. Then walked away. Basically that happened with 2 other sales people, where I was completely and entirely unavailable to get any interaction, let alone professional interaction, from the dealership. I cannot fathom why. I was there dressed very nicely; moreso than anyone in this video--not that I'm trying to be critical, but I'm indicating I don't think my appearance was somehow an issue. I run my own business, and after I walked out on them, because again, NOBODY WOULD TALK TO ME, I couldn't stop thinking about how utterly enraged I would be with my employees if I saw them treat a customer this way.
I am sorry about your experience there and not sure who you spoke to. I know Robert always greets people as they walk in but I am not sure who the other salesman is. He is new and I haven’t been there much lately. I hope you find the car you’re looking for and have a great experience. Thanks for the comment. 🙏
I really appreciate you for this video, this how sales man should be in my opinion, thank you again I enjoyed I learned alot and my first cars was a corvette C5 convertible, so the new ZO6 is a must to me, 🤠
As this was a HTC he should’ve mentioned you can press lock then the button for the roof to open the rear “hood” to get to the engine compartment without lowering the roof or trying to stop it in the middle of the cycle
They may not even know. I didn’t! Thanks for your comment. I went out and did it myself to be sure. Lol. It works! Hopefully I will remember to mention this at some point. I am sure others don’t know this either.
It was very informative, but there was too much comparison to the C7. As a new owner of a C8, I don't need to know what older Vettes have or had. Thank you for sharing.
Agreed but I think it was because he was doing the video with me and knowing I have a C7 and was just kinda habit when you know your customer as opposed to doing a strictly new C8 owner. It wasn’t intentional, just 2nd nature of being in sales.
Damn Jason & Robert, that was definitely very intuitive and well done layout of the C8 features! I feel like I'm prepared for when my C8 allocation finally gets here...ha ha ha! Anyone want to give me their early E-Ray allocation... anyone 😆 Well done 34 👍 Currently -Shane
I have a painted T line on the floor in my garage. Turn on the front camera when entering and line up with center point of front spoiler. Then stop when point touches the perpendicular line. My car is positioned at the exact same place every time.
Thanks!! It’s hard to get everything in a video. This one is already over 30 min. That’s not ideal for a YT video unfortunately. There’s even some seat settings we missed and I just learned about the other day.
Great info! However… several of the features were covered more as how they compare to the earlier generations. "Just like the C7." For us lucky folks who are getting a C8 as their first Corvette, can someone recommend a features walkthrough video that focuses on just the new car? (I'm closing on a '23 Stingray tomorrow!)
I just got my C8 2 weeks ago, I came by your video and there's my car same color. I would like to know where I can buy the vinyl that is on the frunk cover. Your video is great thank you. I am confused about how to use the parking brake.
Thank you!! I got my vinyl from Hobby Lobby. It was just a sheet and I cut out a rectangle and stuck it to a piece of post card that I got in the mail and slid it down. It was kind of a pain to do. I’ll look at my parking brake and let you know. I can’t even remember using it.
You forgot to demonstrate how to open the lid to check the oil and the 12 volt power point under the dash on the passenger side. Other than that you did a complete and easy explanation of the car’s functions.
I bought a 2024 a couple weeks ago, I don’t care for the car. If I would have been given this demonstration before I wrote the check I wouldn’t have bought the car. With-all the technology on the car, I don’t enjoy it at all. I prefer simpler car. I can’t wait until it’s gone.
@@FrontSeatDriver I’ve never read anything about max sd card. I have 1 TB just wanted to know if too much. Where did you get your 2 tB? I like idea of maximum recording and just deleting major duds and having a record of trips etc. I’m going to Colorado and crossing continental divide at 12,000 feet
Great vid, thank you. Question … I like to drive in sport mode, can I set it so it defaults to sport on start up ? It always starts up in tour mode and I have to manually set to sport every time. Can’t figure that out.
While it’s somewhat informative. If this were to be my first corvette. And it’s on order. I really wouldn’t want to here “ it use to be here in the C7 or anything prior. “I am in a new C8. Just go through the set up. The prior reference is just more confusing
Did you say there is no adaptive cruise control? I just looked that up and it does not have it. With all that technology, I’m surprised, but I guess the designers did that on purpose.
I’ve had my C8 since Oct. 2022. So far, so good. I know some have had issues but they’ve built a ton of them that haven’t had problems. I recommend it.
Learned alot but it would be much better without c6 c7 comments, that was just confusing. Wish you spent more time on the controls to identify drive modes and front lift
Just got mine yesterday. Great video! I have so many dumb questions like cam you switch modes without the car being on? ie i forgot to put the exhaust on quiet and don't want my meighbors yo hate me in the morning. Can you run the PDR in the background and still use the other features on the touch screen, or does it have to stay on when it's on. I ask because i want to have a dash cam running at all times, but don't want my screen occupied by the camera. Should you hold on launch control until after 1500 miles, or is it ok to use after 500?
How to “set up car”? Recently my si Sirius stopped and very hard to communicate with Sirius office people. I have a on going monthly renewing subscription but no service!
I hate to be negative because I always look forward to Corvette World videos. I thought the video was going to be a C8 guide but it is actually more of a comparison of C8 to older generations. Sorry but I found that annoying.
For the front end lift, this is assuming you purchased this option when building the car: you have to have it as an extra, otherwise the car doesn't just lift itself. To operate the lift, there are 3 buttons above the selector lever for the drive mode and to the right of the P/N/D/R buttons on the middle console, under the screen. On my 2024 HTC, it's the middle button and shows the front silhouette of a car with an up arrow over the hood. When you want to make the car lift, just push that button and you should hear the lift motor whirring. It takes a couple of seconds for the car to lift, so go slow if you're about to go over a speed bump, for instance. Then push it again to return the car to "unlifted" status. For memory function, are you asking if the lift works that way? No, I don't think so. I think you have to physically push the button each time you need the lift to activate. Even though the car has cameras and sensors galore, I don't think it's programmed to engage automatically. But I'm still a very novice owner... will try it next time I come to a speed bump!
I don’t work for Corvette World but they do not get “new” Corvettes. Everything they sell has been purchased by a regular consumer and sold to them as a used vehicle.
@@FrontSeatDriver yea I just checked out their prices …looks like people buy them put a couple miles on them and sell it for all the money (c8 flipping) and then CV needs to be making their profit as well , any places you do know that sells them msrp ?
@@marccddiaz I don’t specifically know any with one on the lot but Lynn Smith Chevrolet in Burleson, Tx sells MSRP and also Huffines Chevrolet in Dallas will too. But like I said, not sure of allocation availability.
Two more things about the C8. It will not remember the auto door lock setting and the speech recognition is 10 x worse than the worst I have ever encountered.
@@FrontSeatDriver The presentation was very good but, if you think about it, all those references to where thing aren't, just makes it confusing. Like the Irishman giving directions at the beginning of "The Quiet Man"...
@@anthonyat2401 Unfortunately, no. I was told by Corvette Concierge that they didn’t know exactly when it would be shipped out then I get a call a couple days later that it’s already at the dealership.
THANK YOU! I pick up my ‘24 this weekend and my salesman has already told me he knows nothing about the car! He’s just gonna give me the keys and say there you go 🤦♂️. This helps A LOT!

They didn’t do that for me either the Customer house or depend on the BS that the shills on the Internet promises will happen
There’s a channel called DPCcars look for 2020 How to guide for Corvette. It’s pretty detailed and just under an hour long.
My 24 was just produced . It’s being delivered from New Hampshire to Rockland NY . This is my first bucket list sports car after retirement. It’s just a drop off And this video is informative . Ty
There are no videos that discuss the XPEL. I hear it can void a warranty for the headlight. I don’t understand that. One package I am getting is tire and wheels for 7 years . But if it’s sold prior are there refunds? Complicated today , the dealers like to converse in emails. I grew up in a different era. We interacted !
You did a great job cutting down the 4 hour conversation to 30 minutes! LOL
I mostly cut out when I was talking since my info was not necessarily needed.
Aaq!!a!!!!!!aaa!a!@@FrontSeatDriver
Finally… I have something to watch for well over 30-Minutes!😅
It will replace an episode of Friends.
@@FrontSeatDriver LOL!
Even though I have a 2020, this refresher was great! Forgot about the key under the handle! Well done Robert.
Exactly. Definitely a great reminder of things the car does and offers. When you don’t use stuff regularly, you can forget.
If you push in the start stop button and hold it in a few seconds without your foot on the brake it will go into a mode where you can make any adjustments to the controls on the car without starting it every time. Learned this on my c7 and also works on my c8. Nice feature. Just push once finished and will turn off.
Thanks for the tip. I’ll try it.

lol. Yeah. I’m not sure either. I don’t remember that part. 🤣
I hate to be negative because I always look forward to Corvette World videos. I thought the video was going to be a C8 guide but it is actually more of a comparison of C8 to older generations. Sorry but I found that annoying.
There was a lot of comparison to older generations but at the same time there was also a lot of info on how the new car works.
@@FrontSeatDriver Agreed
those Z51 air brake components Can they stay permanent or need to be taken once track day is done?
GM recommends they be removed. Probably due to roads causing damage to them. They could be torn off going over speed bumps or whatever.
Quick question if I may. Does Corvette World and or Corvette Warehouse negotiate pricing?
Corvette World does not. I am not certain about Corvette Warehouse.
@@FrontSeatDriver Thanks.
What about the front end lift activation? How do you adjust the memory function or is it fully automatic?
For the front end lift, this is assuming you purchased this option when building the car: you have to have it as an extra, otherwise the car doesn't just lift itself. To operate the lift, there are 3 buttons above the selector lever for the drive mode and to the right of the P/N/D/R buttons on the middle console, under the screen. On my 2024 HTC, it's the middle button and shows the front silhouette of a car with an up arrow over the hood. When you want to make the car lift, just push that button and you should hear the lift motor whirring. It takes a couple of seconds for the car to lift, so go slow if you're about to go over a speed bump, for instance. Then push it again to return the car to "unlifted" status. For memory function, are you asking if the lift works that way? No, I don't think so. I think you have to physically push the button each time you need the lift to activate. Even though the car has cameras and sensors galore, I don't think it's programmed to engage automatically. But I'm still a very novice owner... will try it next time I come to a speed bump!
Is the c7 battery charger compatible c8?
Yes. Just plugs in in the front instead of in the back.
@@FrontSeatDriver thanks so much. How often should I keep it charged? Does it do any harm if I leave it plugged even after it's fully charged.?
You recommend corvette C8 or jag f type r?
I haven’t driven the Jag but I do like it quite a bit! Looks and sounds great!
Do y’all do msrp on new c8 s?
I don’t work for Corvette World but they do not get “new” Corvettes. Everything they sell has been purchased by a regular consumer and sold to them as a used vehicle.
@@FrontSeatDriver yea I just checked out their prices …looks like people buy them put a couple miles on them and sell it for all the money (c8 flipping) and then CV needs to be making their profit as well , any places you do know that sells them msrp ?
80k for a c8 lt1 340 miles
@@marccddiaz I don’t specifically know any with one on the lot but Lynn Smith Chevrolet in Burleson, Tx sells MSRP and also Huffines Chevrolet in Dallas will too. But like I said, not sure of allocation availability.
Does this cars still go over MSRP ?
In some places.
First thing....Show the owner how to open the doors with no power. Could save a life.
Two more things about the C8. It will not remember the auto door lock setting and the speech recognition is 10 x worse than the worst I have ever encountered.
No front sensors? That’s weird
2LT and above have front cameras.
I don't care controls were on previous cars! ; )
Well, no one’s perfect. At least the majority of the information can be helpful. Still better than going through the owners manual for me.
@@FrontSeatDriver The presentation was very good but, if you think about it, all those references to where thing aren't, just makes it confusing. Like the Irishman giving directions at the beginning of "The Quiet Man"...
@@anthonyat2401 I do agree with your point.
My C8 is supposed to be arriving in about 4 weeks (after an 18 month wait) but there doesn't seem to be any way of finding out more!
@@anthonyat2401 Unfortunately, no. I was told by Corvette Concierge that they didn’t know exactly when it would be shipped out then I get a call a couple days later that it’s already at the dealership.
