Is the C8 Corvette Z51 convertible worth BUYING even with dealer MARKUP?
Рет қаралды 410,530
3 жыл бұрынThe NEW Corvette is becoming quite the lusted after performance sports car from Chevrolet. Under the engine hatch is a 6.2L V8 that is pumping out 495HP & mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. This is the FIRST EVER convertible hard top Corvette. On the outside you will find the extra aero that the Z51 package comes with, optional wheels, and of course Rapid Blue. On the inside the Rapid Blue theme continues to the highest level interior on any generation Corvette. Since there is a great demand and not many C8 Corvettes to go around many dealerships are marking them up $10k-30k over sticker. Is the C8 Corvette Z51 convertible worth BUYING even with dealer MARKUP?

True, its 4.1 sec real Dragy time, lower power to weight than a C7 base, and an avg sales price of $83,000 (a 60% price hike for lower performance and putrid track times) doesn't matter to the 12K instagram whores who bought one. They only care about the virtual 0-60 of 0.005 seconds to 60 mph with 8909 virtual HP. An entire gen of dumbasses.

Yes! I absolutely LOVE the C8 HTC, and the RAPID BLUE paint with the same color interior and the darker contrast looks amazing! I dont really care that the engine isnt as visible as with the coupe, as I plan to extensively “modify” mine (twin turbos, big cam, heads, top end, fuel, etc) so it has massive hp until either the Z06 or ZR1/Zora is available. I dont want to give away what I have under the hood (what do you even call that part over a mid-engine, anyway?) so being somewhat hidden is no issue. Thanks for the TERRIFIC camera work, great CONTENT, and I love anything to do with ‘Vettes!

What’s so fascinating about this corvette is that it seems to beat that phase that happens with new cars especially corvettes start to appear everywhere and begin to lose the fizzle. The C7 fizzled to the point where you would think it was a Ferrari from a distance but once it came into view you’d say “Oh...just a corvette”. But here it seems that even after the c8 comes close enough to realize it’s not a mclaren, it’s still a c8 corvette. It still maintains that *super* look/status. I think this will be one of those timeless cars that people are going to appreciate, and will be a gem on the used car market for entry level super car owners.

To answer your question, Joe... no. The ADM has been a headache for generations, but it’s getting out of hand. And it’ll keep many of these great machines in showrooms (and “rich guy” garages) rather than on the roads and in the hands of working class people where they belong. Dealt with this at Ford with the 500: can I afford a $150k car... sure. Will I pay $150k for a Mustang of ANY kind - ESPECIALLY one with a MSRP at $88K? Hell no. As some others have mentioned - just pretty much pushed me toward the European brands. Shame, because some good things are coming out of these American companies the past few years.

Joe:"You're not bringing drinks into my corvette." That means no 7-Eleven Slurpees...... Nice video! I always enjoy the history info in the beginning of your videos.

Hey Zonkman! Love the video your true passion and your happiness is really it is a true dandy of an On Throttle action. My question is, how can Chevrolet correct their mistakes? Lori the Zonk queen is a dandy of a job with the videos and the camera work.
