Im an American, so naturally, I love my country. I'm not a super patriot or a veteran, nothing like that. But I do like the freedoms we are granted. But when you were telling everyone that America doesn't have to charge MSRP, that they could go well beyond it, legally, might I add. But hearing an Englishman saying that makes me realize that America has become a very crooked country. Anything to do with business in America is going to be very skewed, have loads of very gray areas and can become very corrupt (if it's not already.

Im in Ohio, and before this was released, one was being tested by a local dealership in this color, and I got on the freeway and this car zipped past me so fast and was out of view in about 5 seconds. and I was going 80 mph. it was incredible to watch it disappear before you knew it. And Matt, watch yourself. youre doing illegal double yellow line passes on the highway. Only pass on dotted yellow lines on your side of the double lines.

All these highest power NA engine monikers make me chuckle.
Most power 8, 500 rpm. Where you'll only ever be in first gear. Possibly second, occasionally.
When you're below that, the power is fairly average. If not for the brilliant sound higg revving NAs make there wouldn't be much point in them at all anymore.

OVER 4 seconds. Yeah. Corvette promised a car that would accelerate to 60 in 2. 9. And that was the claim for the STANDARD 450-something HP car. This C06 was supposed to do it in 2. 6 But as always, those were feel-good-about-America numbers. Not at all real.

Typical US BS 0-60 times that you can only achieve with deflated drag slicks on a absolutely perfect drag strip! Looks like they BS as much as the Italians, the complete opposite of the Germans that quote a very quick time that is then beaten considerably in real life.

But of course the track is where it s truly a monster!

Mat the guy to launch his audi r8 v10 with the roof top closed to get the best launch time, while here he be launching the corvette Z06 with the roof top open, worse airo dynamic ever hence poor launch time

That C8 looks great in orange I must admit same with that engine sound. Very much the American V8 way, 670hp as well from a smaller engine! Looking forward to seeing this in a drag race in the near future.

The upcoming Corvette E-Ray will have AWD. It will be quicker than this Z06 in every metric. The AWD will give it traction even on the worst surfaces. The days of RWD only Corvettes are numbered.

If was blindfolded and paying attention only to the segments where you could hear the engine sound I'd have betted my kidneys that was a 458. They must have reverse engineered it to perfection.

Calling Jesse a NASCAR driver isn't really. true anymore. He's a team owner now and when he was racing he was. Questionable. He's a great guy though, really nice of him to lend you his car

I don't consider the new Corvette a real Corvette. It's apparently a great car, especially for the money, but (to me) it just lost the true Corvette character when it went mid-engined.

It's a cool car this. They basically bought a Ferrari 458 and copied it to create this. I don't like the tacograph on the dashboard though. It looks like a 90's arcade racing game

This video, inadvertently highlights the extreme greed of the American auto industry.
50K mark ups (on the very low side) and 600 tire change are just plain asinine.

With that markups, wouldn't it be much cheaper, to buy american cars in europe and reimport them?
And shouldn't the competition automatically lower the prices?

The engine in this isn't really smaller (physically) than the LT2, as that is an OHV engine and this is DOHC. Just less displacement. Both are great in their own way

Mat seems to launch the cars pretty damn well. I would love to see that Z06 on a prepped surface and see if it could get any closer to its claimed 0-60mph time.

You re launching it without a roof, that decreases aerodynamics or slickness and increases drag, maybe that's why it s not doing 0-60 as fast as it should
