Very comprehensive review of options. Lack of the Rearview Mirror Camera in the 1LT even as an extra-cost option is inexcusable with the blind spots this car has. This is a major safety concern and should be standard in all models even if this requires a price bump. I think more people would go for the 1LT if they could get this camera. I agree Universal Remote Control should be standard in 2020 in a $60K+ vehicle. 2LT is expensive upgrade, but lots of goodies. Great value!
@garysaunders86914 жыл бұрын
If the camera mirror came with the 1LT, a lot of folks would buy the 1LT... correct. But that would likely takes sales away from 2LTs, and thus lower rev and margin for Chevy... so not likely to happen for a few model years.

Here's the thing about Bose speaking as someone who's done live and studio audio for years. For a car, and for the majority of people who either do not have trained ears or are simply older and didn't take the best care of their hearing (most people over 40 can't hear above 15kHz), this is a perfectly fine system and usually designed to bolster frequencies that are commonly lost. This is why audio engineers commonly joke "pinchy highs, muddy lows, nothing in between it must be Bose". If you've been in the recording industry or are a skilled musician used to playback on studio monitors, yes you will notice a quality difference. However I've gotten used to the system in my Cadillac which is very similar to the 14 speaker system in the C8. While I find some things lacking here and there (no multiband EQ), most of the big gaps in response, definition and range are not from the system itself but from the lossy content like streaming audio (pandora, spotify, etc) or digitally compressed audio from Sirius/XM. At CD quality it will take skilled ears to notice the deficiencies in the system and even then you will notice every other noise before then. In other words I would not worry about the quality of this system, it's pretty good.

The 2021 can be ordered with magnetic ride now. It the additional cooling, slip differential etc...worth while when the summer heat reaches 115-120 F? My inclination is ro get the upgrade. But at $6000 I am debating if it’s worth it.
@FullThrottleDrive4 жыл бұрын
Joe Field it’s a great question and hard to answer... if you never track the car it’s doubtful you would need the extra cooling. You would have to drive really hard on public roads to even get to the point if possible issues. I would say actually high heat like that in stop and go traffic would be your worst scenario. No airflow moving through the car. I have noticed that the hottest temps I see is when the car isn’t moving. Even pushing the car hard but getting good airflow keeps everything in check. But I do have the z51 package.

I know I'm 9 months late, but you said if you use Apple Carplay or Android Auto, that your phone will be plugged in, so no point in the wireless charger. On Chevy's website, for the C8, it states that it uses *wireless* Apple Carplay and Android Auto. So you should *not* have to plug in your phone to use those 2 features, hence why the wireless charger is in the rear, besides not enough space for it up front. I'm just a bit of a tech nerd so it just stuck out to me 😂

The base model is still absolutely incredible. You will see a huge difference over the C7 generation. IMO the base C8 is the best value.

I would hope GM finally fixed the shrinking and delaminating issues with their Napa leather but in not going to hold my breath. It’s been a problem since the 6th gen corvette. I hope it does not start happening to my 3LT but I have seen many horror stories. Some people have switched out to the mulan leather (by the way is the same cost to replace as the Napa leather) after their replacement Napa leather dash also fell apart.
