It does come with The Lower lip Spoiler. It’s just a $4000 Carbon fiber Option Called the Ground Effects Carbon Fiber package that includes The Front spoiler, Side rockers and a More aggressive rear spoiler.

Great review. I particularly appreciate your explanations of interplay of performance and design for the Corvette. For example, the venting for cooling the transaxle which is I turn used to better distribute weight. This really makes me appreciate the car’s design. Bravo!

Thank you once again for your excellent review! I can't wait for you to review the C8. Have a nice day!

I would def go for the GS for those of us who don't need monster power of the Z06. A used one could be a good deal if under warranty. Better handling with 4 full inches more out the back, LSD, dry sump, brakes, Z06 looks. Then sell it to get a used next gen Vette.

I just bought a 2016 Z06 3LZ convertible in Daytona Sunrise Orange Metallic. I'm over the moon. I love it! Thanks for the video Joe!

Thank you Raiti you did great detail review on these awesome Corvette.

Thanks for the video bro. Got all the guessing out of me. Now i am 100 % clear what i want. GS ALL THE WAY. THANK YOU FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

Thank you very much for the 4m history lesson! I had no idea about all of the previous designs, designers, and history. Reccomend you mention that this is a history lesson in the title!

Dorthy's red slippers ha. I dont think the new Mid engine design cant beat this look. That rear quarter is alien technology.

I like how this gentleman is breaking this down. Thanks man!!

I love comparison videos like this. Thank you for thoroughly explaining the aesthetic differences between the two. How would you compare the ride quality of the Stingray vs the Grand Sport?

Great video. You killed all my doubts with this good comparison

Awesome! Thanks for the tour of the Corvettes!

Thanks for doing more Vette reveiws raiti! Awesome as always

Awesome video Joe and Tom! Keep up great work!

Great review I have a 2019 Stingray 1LT and I love it......

Really learned more about the Grand Sport. Great video .

I am digging that GS vette. I love that Chevy has keep the tradition. Great review Raiti's Rides.

Oh great now I want one of these! (Gran Sport of course) Great review!

I know it's 3 yr old but if you see this Thank You. you helped me make up my mind which package I want to buy.!!

Great review and thanks for the review Joe. I actually prefer the vertical bars in the grill if the corvette that resemble the C1 Vettes. I saw an aftermarket replacement that had wider than production vertical bars shaped more like those on the C1 in black carbon fiber and it looked incredible. I think that at some time during the C8s run GM should go for broke with it and make it in either carbon fiber, black stainless or black chrome.

Great comparison. Now I'm more knowledgeable about the difference between the various models.

I agree with your "Zonk" of the deleted front splitter ( A Nascar term ) on the Grand Sport.

Cool video. Appreciate the comparison info. I understand the cooling vents for the transaxle are merely cosmetic on some models, including the Stingray; is that true?

I really enjoy all the Corvette content , being a C6 3LT owner . Nothing compares to the feeling of owning " America's Sports Car !

From a 2017 STI to a 18 Nismo Z, cant wait to get my hands on a 7 spd Grand Sport C7 Corvette. Really like those small exterior changes found on a grand sport and z06. After looking at a grandsport or z06, the singray looks really plain :/ Great job on differentiating between the trims/types! Just recently got into looking at corvettes and the differences between the tiers.

Before you even said it man I was thinkin the exact same thing. That the corvette grand sport badges on the rear would look way cleaner if they were black. Especially with the black wheels and I love the redline tires

Lol your videos cure depression, Joe - Great review!

Love the corvettes ..thumbs up Raiti

Can you please make a video about cars classes I want to really understand them but i love to see your explanation cuz i love your show

I just bought my very first Chevy C7 and it is awesome.

Definitely tell your a teacher , your videos are detailed and educational .

Enjoy your videos!!

This is the perfect reviewing dude right here !!!

I think a lot of models are evolving to something we won’t recognize or refer to as a traditional corvette, camaro, mustang etc. The next five years are going to be a heck of a ride.

That's it I'm getting a GrandSport for the Summer! I wanna go fast! 🥂🍾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great Review. My only complaint and it is not just with you but with many. The Corvette, since 97 has had a rear mounted transmission and not a transaxle. They are technically 2 different things. The C8 is the first Corvette using a Transaxle where the transmission and differential are in 1 unit using 1 liquid. The C5, C6 and C7 all use transmissions with separate differentials. Other than that , I enjoyed the review. I recently made the mistake of going to a Chevy dealer where they had a white 2014 C7 Z51 3LT 6 speed auto with 18K miles. I fell in love with it and now trying to convince my wife to let my go pick it up.

Definitely help on making a decision on model.

Great video!!!

I always like 67 Stingray, by the way I was born 63, donit I getting old ! You know me love that V-8. Old School ... 🌟🌟🌟👍🌟🌟🌟

Great segment and job.

Great at always!

Great comparison video.

I like the Corvette GS except for the interior but as a whole it's a great American sports car

Wicked comparison video

Love the Grand Sport!🏁🇺🇸👍🏻

$72k is not too shabby. Corvettes are zonk proof. Just letting you know. 😀 would love to know the price of the stingray. Love the color of both but the black rims look superior. Keep up the great work young man!!!

Can't go wrong with either one of those 👍🏽

Fantastic explanation of the 2, does the grand sport come with the magnetic ride control??

Great review. Love the C7 👍

Has Chevrolet fixed the rim cracking on 2019 Corvettes yet? At least starting to cover them under warranty now?

Best review ever!!

Good video I really wanted to only what the difference was between the GS and Stingray.

quick question does the newer convertable and coupe leak after a while.

Z51 you have there also has both the dry sump and the ELSD.

My first Corvette was of that 70's era ); But I loved it. It was a Corvette!

You can buy a cheaper OEM aftermarket Spoiler tho. No Problem. The Aftermarket Goodies including The Various Performance Exhausts are endless and loads of fun!

Great information on the differences on the two Corvettes. Lol @ if your gonna valet this your nuts! 🚘😂🚘

Q: Vents for the transaxle: How is the cooling by a GS Convertible? Cause they havent these vents. 13:55

Great comparison Joe.. Ill see how what the price difference is in 5-7 years when I’m close to retirement between the Stingray & GS... Liking the wider setup, but honestly i wont be tracking it... Yeah the GS will feel tighter and quicker in the twisties, but My Girlfriend who now squirms when I take an expressway exit ramp at high speeds in my 2013 Lexus ES350 will shit her pants with the Stingray, let alone the GS ! I think the Stingray will be enough for both of us 😂

Nice Vette's luv that Grand Sport...

The only exhaust pipe setup that ever compared was the quad exhaust on the V12 Jag E-Type.

nice in depth coverage mr. ratti...im still lovin my 18 gr, sport i got earlier in the year/with the 8-speed autom.;blac on blac..i was under the impression that the corvettes always had their transmissions in the back of the car..u said it started with the c-4???

Thanks!

23:17 Lmao! I subbed man

Ha ha ha ha...Loved the LSD reference, Joe!

Awesome review and cars, Joe. I'd be satisfied with either one, but given a choice, the GS is the way to go. To answer your question, yes, I think we won't see the GS or the Z06 for the first year generation C-8. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see a big twin turbo V-6 as the engine for the C-8. The twin turbo 6 banger engine works very well in other sports cars, as you know. They can get a whole lot of ponies and torque from that engine. The space available for a big V-8 engine may not be there in a mid-engine design. It would be lighter as well, I'm thinking. Who the hell knows, Chevy may surprise everyone and offer both the C-7 and C-8 next year, since both are made in the same assembly plant. I here tell the sales are down on the 2019 model due to the anticipation of the C-8 coming out next year. Might be some great bargains at the dealerships later this year. Thanks again, keep em' comin'.

My favorite car as well.

C7 have been an awesome car but im ready for GM to finally take the c8 car from under the wraps and show the midengine..tired of looking at the camouflage car for the past 3 years too long for me

good job explaining the differences . GS is my favorite Corvette but they should bump the HP to 500 for that price.

I'm ready to pull the trigger on a 2019 but don't know the difference between the z51 and the grand sport, they seem very similar?

Anyone else drooling since timestamp 00:05?

Can't buy these beasts in my country. But still can enjoy them in this review. BTW I'm from Mauritius.

I don't know who can afford these cars anymore.I bought a 2019 STI four months ago for 37000 and it just as much fun as my 2008 Z06 that I bought in 2008 for 65000.

Can you do a Ford F-150 Roush review on it in-depth into it

I’m late to the great review. 👏👏👏

I hope its the last GS. Then the 63, 96, and C6 and C7 grand sports will be all the rarer and (hopefully) go up in value!

Did I miss something... the Grand Sport is basically a Z51 package with the Z06 body... or, conversely... the Z51 package is the Grand Sport without the extra weight. I bought a Z51 package, put in the Z06 front grill and front spoiler... works for me. :-)

Are there anymore grand sport corvettes out there ??? Please let me know thanks joe

You're great.

The z51 stingray has dry sump as well

I want the C8 but if it's not available then I will get the C7. Somebody at work gone say I'm too young for a corvette 🤨.

amazing

Excellent

I would have preferred to see the Stingray logo in the middle of the side vent of the Stingray as opposed to where they put it..... IMHO.

Joe please feature a Ferrari when possible. The Portofino, 488, the monster Superfast. Or even a used one.

How much wider is the GS compared to the Stingray?

FYI You never mentioned the wide body with respect to the rear fenders.

I got the 2019z51 2lt love that car

The black rims looks better

I disagree with your "Zonk" of the chrome strips on the front grille.

I feel funny saying this about a GM but where is the Test Drive LOL. This is my first time seeing a review Of A Vett. With all that trunk space this would be a fast dally driver👀🏁

Looks like you could put some smaller size flat screen TV's in the back! No need for a SUV!

I Highly doubt this is the Last year we’ll see of the C7! C8 gonna take some more time! Long as with the King 7TH Gen Camaro!

Great video Joe. I drove a C7 before I bought my Mustang GT. Awesome car but I had to be realistic , I have to be able to afford groceries lol.

you didn't close the trunk all the way.

Smooth move ace... hand on the paint closing the hatch... i guess the engineers just wasted energy designing in a hand hold pocket on the inside of the hatch about 3" from where your paw pulled down on the hatch... other than that great video - Thank you, I learned quite alot about the Stingray vs Grand SPort

Where's the Doug score? Oh wait, wrong video... 😁

Geeze Louise Joe, another Corvette video!? How about something different for a change? Like, oh, I don't know, a FORD truck!? 😅 Seriously though, I'd like to see you do a review of the Sport Track. Okay, back to the Vette. You hit all the salient points with it, but one thing is for sure. For anyone interested in a See the USA in your Chevrolet (Corvette), buy now! Until you experience for yourself how much "stuff" you can fit in the back, you have no idea. When the mid-engine comes out, the only thing you'll be able to get in the Frunk will be your Man Bag and if you're traveling with wife, girlfriend, whatever, she may have to leave her Lady's Bag at home. I'm half suspicious the mid-engine may not even have a glove box. Time will tell. Save the Wave

Bring on the c8
