I am very surprised at the lack of pocket protectors in this video. The yaw-rate info was exhilarating.

What C4 did you have?

I have a belly button

I love every Vette generation, especially the C5 and the C7. But, like you, I simply do not like the look of the C8. The interior of the C8 is beautiful, but that chiseled up exterior on the C8 is just downright ugly.

I can't stand everything about the C8. Camaro taillights, ridiculously oversized side air scoops. Short pointy noise/frunk. (Look at the Testarossa mid engine but with a nice long frunk) and the worst of all. MID ENGINE. I don't want a front engine Ford GT. I don't want a rear engine Miata. I don't want a V8 911. I DON'T WANT A MID ENGINE CORVETTE!

because it doesn't

@@stereolababy It does too

@@explorer909 like having 2 doors and 4 wheels?

They're great but not for the long term. They are frot with electrical and mechanical issues that show their ugly face when you get above 70k miles on them.

This is the video that came with my 2002 Vette when I ordered it from the factory and the VHS case it came in said 2002 Corvette, so...

Check your facts

I did not make this video Jesse! This is what came with my 2002 when I ordered it from the factory and here's the official 2002 C5 brochure to back it up: www.auto-brochures.com/makes/Chevrolet/Corvette/Chevrolet_US%20Corvette_2002.pdf

Philip Neitz I was replying to the guys reply at the top I dont think the corvette had 375ft lbs of torque for the manual corvette

My bad

Like all vehicles, the C5 has its problems. My 2002 was poorly built and required major repairs at every oil change (i.e. it was expensive to own). Plus the targa top (the glass top) leaked when it rained, despite replacing it. The C5 is also poorly insulated so you hear a lot of the road and wind as you drive. Regardless of which C5 you get, it is a fair weather vehicle; if you drive in the rain, in addition to getting wet, the C5's computer will also get wet (due to where it's located) and will cause lots of expensive problems--this design flaw has required more than a handle of tows to the dealership for repairs. With that said, I would go for the convertible but either way, the C5 needs to be kept in a garage or under a carport and only driven when it is nice outside.

go with the convertible, definitely!

Buy an 03 or 04 instead.

This is late. The 98 corvette has the undesirable LS1 block. The 99 and higher has the desired LS1 block.

Weight reduction.
