Thank you my friend.. it should be a lot of fun

OK, for sake of argument, lets say NSX goes 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. I can buy a base C-8 for $61K, add performance exhaust for $1200 (495 HP) and have a 0-60 in 2.9 second supercar. So you say the NSX lasts longer? I can buy almost 3 C-8's for your 1 NSX.

@@767stick I can buy a 20 year old Honda Hatch for $5K build a B16A motor strip some weight out and smoke your built C8 for under $20K total and the Honda will run low 10's on a 4 banger no FI either. See how this game can be played? How do you qualify 3 C8's being the price of one NSX? Even used base model 1LT with 8K miles on it are selling for $72K on the average right now. 3 1LT C8's would be $216K and $76K over the price of a used NSX currently. By the way the 2017 NSX does zero to sixty in less than 2.9 seconds BONE STOCK and the 2019+ model are hitting 2.7 or less BONE STOCK. Not to mention the NSX is appreciating and will continue to rise exponentially as the NSX has been discontinued as of 2022. The market is flooded with C8's thus making them even more less desirable and causing the typical GM depreciation drop.

@@ELECTRICEYEMEDIA If you can really do that to a Honda, electric eye, do it! And then market it for say, 15-20%, a $25K C-8 killer ... you could start a little business. If I got my doors blown off by a little $25K Honda rice rocket, I would consider getting one. C-8's are the best supercar value EVER!!!

Me too buddy

I think it would be nice if chrysler took the me412 and replaced the Mercedes v12 with a v10 viper or hellcat engine. It's a shame they had to throw away all that technology away. It was a gorgeous car.

Agree!!

The Vette is hands down the better of both. Speed is not everything, and that is an easy fix for the Vette. I doubt that NSX even have something as simple as a cup holder.

As a long time proud Acura owner I can say that they are pretty awesome but saying that they are on another level? Nah.

Since you use it as a daily driver, what’s the gas mileage like for you? And do people come up to you a lot when you go grocery shopping or something lol.

People love the corvette c8 and it gets a lot of compliments. Im not sure about the gas mileage yet its most likely 15 around town 27 mpg on the highway..,plenty of trunk space front and rear. Love the targa top being removed now that spring weather is here. Fabulous daily driver quick and excellent handling up around the mountains too

@@JBsC6 Sorry for the late response, but has it been running fine in bad weather conditions like rain and snow? Being that it’s a RWD, I would be worried about driving it in rain/snow.

No problems with my corvette as a daily driver and that includes rain and snow. Surely I wait a day after the 27 inch snow storm we had this winter when the town plowed but the day after the storms seems to be fine. Ive been driving rear wheel drive cars as far back as the mid 1970s...we didnt have abs brakes or active handling back then. We just drove carefully rear mid engine cars made great rally cars back then before awd. My lancia scorpion turbo back in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s was pretty good in the snow too. Dont drive likea jack @$$ ...be careful, leave plenty of space between you and the car in front of you which are basic rules of driving in the rain and snow no matter what kind of car you drive and youll be fine. In my opinion the vehicles I tend to see off the road in snowy conditions often are cuv s where the idiot owners think because they have awd they can speed which ultimately bites them in the @$$. Awd doesnt make you any better at stopping or cornering in the snow, awd tends to just help you accelerate better in snowy conditions. Rain was fine with the c8 as well. Again just use common sense and drive appropriately for the road conditions. Ive driven corvettes for a quarter of a million miles and that includes winters. Id probably say I stayed home maybe 3 days a year total because of snow but I would have done that no matter the vehicle I drove. Im driving over 4 decades. Havent had an driving accident in decades. Use common sense in driving. Appropriately. When I was growing up and driving as a young man we all drove rwd cars...awd jeeps werent really a thing back then. Front wheel drive cars were pretty rare too..certainly not cars we teenagers wanted, only today people think awd and front wheel drive is mandatory to survive...

@@JBsC6 appreciate the response, thank you man!!

Exactly! Seen videos of the NSX beating the C8 by several car lengths!

NOPE..C8 the best car on the planet for its style, performance, and bang for buck for mid engine car. That is not an opinion. That is a fact.. C8 you can't get your hands on unless your willing to pay much over sticker. The Acura is sitting on showroom floors and lots collecting dust for a reason. Sales are extremely poor all over the world for a reason. The current NSX is not a collectors car because nobody sure as hell is collecting it.....The first generation NSX is a collectors car and in some instances cost more than the current NSX. Riddle me this, why would any sane person on the planet pay $150 for a NSX with the C8 Z51 and C8 Z06 cost less with the C8 Z06 being a super car, sounding like an exotic, that will tear the NSX to shreds for less money...You will not be able to get a Z06 for 3 to 5 years...They will not allow me to leave a deposit now....Sorry but NSX are available at dealerships like sand at the beach bro.

@@thegeneral8133 the Corvette is a bullshit pushrod V8 stuffed in the back of an ugly plastic dogshit pancake body. The Acura NSX is a technological revolution that is being copied by Ferrari sf90 and the new Lamborghini countach but remember Acura did it first.

@@davidpiccolo3039 Yea the Corvette is so ugly and a trashy pushrod V8 that the Z06 is sold out almost 2 years before it's scheduled to be released and 2 months before it's scheduled to be revealed to the world. The Z51 is so terrible that it broke the internet the day it was revealed. People are paying waaaaay over sticker for it, the waiting list is 2 years long lol..lol..lol.. Everyone is copying the NSX huh.....Too bad no one wants the over priced NSX. There are far too many cars better and more desired than the NSX at that price point. Acura tried to get cute and misjudged the market Bigly...They overpriced the car, they got away from the roots of the 1st generation. The Z06 and Z51 will sell four times more cars than the NSX...Not only that but the NSX is about to go away for good if sales don't pick up next year...Sorry..

@@thegeneral8133 Style is purely subjective and to some the C8 will be more attractive and to others the NSX. Acura only produced about 1,500 NSX in total from 2017-2022 making them extremely rare. In fact, more rare than even a Lamborghini Aventador which VW Group manufactured over 10,000 models since 2011. There are maybe only 40 second generation NSX currently listed nationwide online here in the U.S. for sale. There are roughly 2,460 C8 Corvettes for sale online nationwide currently and they're are indeed collecting dust as most are anticipating the release of the Z06 model and are holding out. Unlike the C8, the second generation NSX has been discontinued as of 2021 ending the run of NC1 production with the 2022 Type-S model that was limited to just 350 cars. All of which are completely sold out. The NC1 NSX 2017-2022 continues to appreciate even fall of 2021 by 20%, while C8 prices have either maintained last years pricing or have depreciated by 11%. The reason someone would choose the NSX over a C8 is quite simple. They have taken the time to research the advanced technology and evolution of Honda's hybrid systems, their torque vectoring and all wheel drive capabilities. They most likely know about Honda's long history of absolute reliability and/or their contributions and major victories in F1 racing. The JNC1 3.5L TT V6 engine in the NSX is a full on race engine built on a collaboration between Cosworth and Honda Performance Development, and is the exact motor that is used in their Evo GT3 race cars. I have personally ran my 2018 NSX in temperatures in excess of 115 degrees boosting for hours on canyon cruises well over 200+ miles at a time without a single issue and I'm full bolt-on with a tune making 720hp. I have taking my NSX to drag race at the track with back to back runs from mid to high 10's and not a single issue. I have ran the NSX on a road course for 3-4 sessions in one day with the AC blowing, full interiorwithout and not a single issue as well. I still get 24-26mpg on 100 octane and beat nearly every exotic on the road and was able to stay a car and a half behind a Plaid S from a 40-130mph roll. Let's see a C8 do this! Meanwhile, the C8 as David Piccolo has stated, is simply a rehashed pushrod V8 that is now mid-mounted with a DCT and a somewhat questionable body design that in my opinion missed it's mark. The C8 has an identity crisis going on for sure. It appears that a Camaro 1LE raped a Ferrari 360 Modena and out came this bastard child C8. Hideous in my opinion. The C7 is much better IMHO. Quite frankly, the classic 60's and 70's Vettes were some of my favorites from GM. The styling was much better on the older models.

Thank you my friend

My son got one last November and I drive it all the time. He had a C7 that was amazing but the C8 Z51 is next level. He is going to keep the Z51 and order a Z06 as soon as they are available to preorder. Must be nice have the cash to do that, I drive a 2008 Hyundai Sonata so…

The first mid engine corvette will take longer than 10 year to devaluate dramatically.. it’s the first Mid Engine.

Didn't even take that long. Within the last year I have seen a depreciation of around 12% on C8's while I have seen a 20% appreciation on 2017+ NSX models. The fact that the NC1 NSX 2017-2022 has now been discontinued will continue to drive the used prices on them over $200K within a few short years mark my words.

Here are some additional details about the Bowling Green Assembly Plant: The plant covers 90 acres and employs over 1,400 people. It is the only plant in the world that produces Corvettes.

Driving a stick is not hard, you just shift the gear, and immediately come off the clutch. Put that foot on the floor or hover over the clutch. 2nd gear repeat. Push clutch in and quickly got into 2nd and come off clutch immediately while pressing gas. When stopping press break and clutch so when you go again you can come off break to gas and let the clutch go with the other foot while going back to first gear. Slowing down you must reverse shift like if you are going 50 mph shift from 5th down to 4th and the car should be going slower and ad you break and lose speed shift to 3rd etc and break the gears down until you come to a stop leaving you in 1st gear to begin again.
