These are my opinions on some of the changes that GM made or did not make.
By no means am I saying I do not like the car but just sharing where I feel there is room for improvement.
Let us know in the comments how you feel about these changes or lack there of.

People want their cake and eat it too…they want Porsche quality but pay Chevy prices. If Chevy charged an extra $10k and fixed all the issues, ppl would still complain and want more.

Actually GM did charge the extra amount to provide some of these features with their 2LT trim. But with Porsche you pay for the name more than the feature With Chevy you should be paying more for the feature than the name

The front trunk "auto" closing feature works differently from the rear trunk "auto" feature. The reason is most owners that buy the optional battery maintainer (from CTEK). leave the maintainer in the bottom of the front trunk, these people (me) want the front trunk lid to stay cracked open for about an inch so the AC power cord can exit the front trunk to be connected to 110 VAC external power.
@JayJafar
@JayJafar 4 ай бұрын
Yes, a lot of people pointed that out and I agree with the reasoning. Could there have been a way around it? Yes, like most modern cars have auto trunk close and when they feel resistance they back out. But that might have been asking too much from a performance car & GM lol. Nevertheless I learned the reasoning after posting this video and reading the comments

My battery tender on my c8 is routed out by the a pillar on the passenger side..there is a perfect opening to run the wires and close the frunk and out the car cover on as well…I would never run it out the front of the frunk…
@hank41652
@hank41652 5 ай бұрын
The "no touch" trunk closure only works for the coupe due to the deck lid being larger and heavier. It does not; however, work every time, you have to give it a bit of a shove. For the HTC, you still have to give the deck lid the extra push. Also, the HTC deck lid does not have an inside pull. On the other hand, they are just cars. I can handle some finger prints, I also keep a microfiber towel behind the seat.
@JayJafar
@JayJafar 5 ай бұрын
That makes sense but aren’t the rear hood struts also heavier to counter the weight effect? Also I use my knuckles to close the frunk haha you may have noticed in the video too…. Just to mitigate finger prints lol

Valid complaints since most of the parts to fix the problems are already in GMs inventory. GM always seems to be half-stepping when it comes to their products. Look how long people complained about the seats in the Corvette when the CTS-V had better supportive seats than the Corvettes of the same era.
@JayJafar

The CTS-V is their luxury sports offering to compete against german offerings in the same class Corvette being more sports focused is probably why. But I do agree with you GM can improve it at the same price level but they don’t

ALL great items to discuss. The Corvette 2024 LT3 I looked at in s showroom, showed me that several dash control items were just not good. For example, the Stalk controls on the Steering column. Down right cheap plastic for a $100K Car. Esp. with the LT3 upgrade.

The soft close was also a major reason I asked my dealer I am willing to move behind on the allocation so that I can get the 2024. My biggest shock was the car not having adaptive cruise control though, they put all the tech like censors for vehicle detection, auto braking etc. but still no Adaptive cruise.

Great video, Jay. I agree. Absolutely, GM has dropped the ball on upgrading the "basic" safety features in a car at this price point. Yes, it's a sports car, but will it hurt to add safety features that even every subaru model offers? Are the consumers asking too much ? How much does it really cost to add side mirror sensors or a warning beep for front and rear while parking ? If GM is charging $ 2595 for a front axel lift, then why not add those features with this package? I drove a c8 convert yesterday, and the front parking camera view is horrendous. I almost hit the car in the front while parking it back on the lot. I loved the car, but i plan on "using" it as much as possible, and these "minor" issues are a real pain in the butt. Especially if every other car in my driveway has those basic features. Once you're used to these features, it's hard to go back, and one tends to take them for granted in every car. My Ford Tremor has a far superior front camera. I would love to buy the car but need a solution for the front camera view. Is there any information on how to fix or upgrade to an aftermarket camera?
@JayJafar
@JayJafar 5 ай бұрын
That is exactly how I feel, if you get the 2LT & above trim you do get rear parking sensors which do work well and also you get blind spot monitoring. The front camera is useful but surely does not belong on a $85K+ car its very out dated No solutions I have heard of for the front camera I know how one gets used to the technology its like using a new phone then going back to the old phones. My other car is a Tesla so I really feel the lack of tech in the C8

My personal opinion is that Chevy corporate should do what they said they would do and cut the allocations and or deliveries to any dealer that would gouge buyers. It's pathetic that dealers would use this car as a way to scam the buyer. I found a dealer in IL. ( Leach Wilson) that is willing to sell the car at MSRP. Aaron and the sales group there is just extremely helpful. The problem they're having is getting the allocation? So as usual you have the dealers that are gouging the buyer getting the allocations, and the dealers that are looking out for the buyer getting snubbed. Chevy stand by your word get the cars out to dealers that will work with the buyers. I understand that it is all about sales. The question is can't all the dealers that have buyers waiting get an allocation? I'm sure the sales of the car will be as strong and the people that have been waiting will be happy with Chevy. WOW what a great sales and corporate boost. The little guy who WANTS the car getting it.. Instead of the greedy self serving dealers getting the cars to the people that have the time and extra thousands to spend. Trust me I'm looking for a fully loaded Z07. I'm not looking for a baseline car, as I'm 65 and want to enjoy something I've waited my whole life for. C'MON CHEVY GET THE CAR OUT TO ALL THE DEALERS NOT JUST THE SELECT FEW EAST COAST AND OR GOUGING DEALERS. Get some allocations out to the smaller and mid range dealers as well.

1) Worrying about fingerprints on the frunk? This only impacts the owners that just want garage queens, where they will have the car for 3 years and put 700 miles on it because all they do is polish it and look at it, or park it at a car meet and sit on a lawn chair looking at it. The soft close works just fine. It get fingerprints, and if you drive it, its gonna get rock chips and door dings in parking lots and at some point a crack in the windshield from a rock... It's a car, that's how it works... I have had mine a month and have 2,100+ miles on it and already have a small chip in the PPF on the front. Is what it is... I don't even worry about it... 2) Putting "in Mexico" as some sort of disclaimer, like its gonna protect you legally if law enforcement were to try and use your video against you as evidence of speeding or reckless driving... yeah, no. Not gonna work. They can read the road signs and tell exactly where you were. haha 3) Never use Lane assist, I usually turn that off. Don't need it beeping at me if I am in the mtns and cut the inside left corner a bit and go over the line a tad... 4) Agree with the cell phone holder. It's really awkward to get to unless you are a contortionist. The seat locks you in nice and tight, and twisting 180 degrees to get to your phone is a pain...

Imagine not having that wall of buttons and truly taking advantage of a rear engine with no drive shaft going going through the center. Known fact is that they reverse engineered a 458 but they didn't take cue from it in the interior. I agree on the term "world class" is what GM could have achieved

The row of buttons doesn’t bother me in fact I think is cool. Your nit picking the interior. The C8 interior is leaps and bounds better than all the other generations before.

@@craigthescott5074 Yes. It is certainly better than the C7 and prior. However, it could have been so much better. Search YT for the Lamborghini Technica introduction video by Lamborghini and see how they executed the design and build of that car! Nothing goofy, no gimmicks just pure clean design and everything is logically placed and easy to use. And if you sat in the car and actually felt the materials and the switches, you'd know that this is first class all the way! No, GM did well but they fell significantly short of what the C8 could have been!

@@craigthescott5074 No doubt performance per dollar is right up there but I worry about the build quality. I think if I were to go the C8 Z06 route, I'd just buy a low mileage Lamborghini Gallardo and have twin turbos put on it. The C8 Z06 won't be a match as the Gallardo will have way more HP and have AWD! Yes, it is a bit older but the build quality of the old Gallardo still exceeds the new cars built by GM! As much as I want to buy American, this fact is still difficult to overcome!

Not Ferrari or McLaren have a better optioned car on the market in the performance range, and certainly not Porsche. Have you looked at what a base 992 911 gives you in interior options? The chassis ALONE is a better neutral handling car THAN any Carbon tub McLaren on track. GM has luxury cars that make you go to sleep as well, but this is a sports car and fiddling with your phone while driving a high horsepower anything is risky business.

I can not agree more with you here, the C8 is an amazing value for money. I love the car overall, but I extended my wait in order to get the 2024 because I did value the changes. Now in my opinion the changes were not worth the wait but in the end I am a pleased with the car. Stay tuned for more positive videos. I just had to get this one video topic off my chest 😂 Thank you for watching 🙂

@@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 When it comes to engineering expertise, Porsche still beats GM!!! When the C8 was in development, GM bought a Porache 911 Twin Turbo and took it apart to benchmark. When was the last time Porsche bought any GM product to benchmark??!!! Look up constructor's wins in the 24 Hrs of LeMans and see Porsche at No 1 with 19 wins and Audi at No 2 with 13 wins! GM never won a single time as a constructor!!!!

Lane keep assist, finger prints, wireless charging? The problem is you! You bought the wrong car. Gm knocked it out of the park on this thing. You need a Lexus or a Tesla. This is a car for people who you know like to drive cars not complain. Wireless charging still laughing about that one. But pdr is an awesome option especially for track. I don’t have it wish I did.

Can’t agree with you more, except the problem being me part. The point is that they offered it and customers are paying for it and a “new” offering in 2024 is expected to be technologically new. I can go on and on why so many people opt for after market solutions for charging in this car. I think I gave the wrong message here, in reality I absolutely love the car!!
