Now that we know its this good, imagine them one upping it with a ZR1 🤯

Ima just waiting for someone to supercharger on it because f it right t

Tdib review of the new z06- "GOD!!!!!!"

Can you say the same when comparing the GR Corolla Core to Circuit/Morizo?

@@adriancandelaria531 It'll most likely be a hybrid with the trend of things.

How many average Joes can afford $100K performance cars though?

@@MisterMikeTexas That isn't the point, the point is, for it's extreme level of performance it performs at a weight class that extremely few can afford, while having a price tag WAY more people can manage. $100k~ is way more doable than you think verses 250-500k. I know that sounds insane but it really isn't. We don't need greedy cunts, marking up these 'affordable' supercars so only the ultra-elite can afford them.

@@MisterMikeTexas construction joes got money to blow on vettes

@@MisterMikeTexas I can name off a bunch of guys making 35hr+ plus OT who have toys at this price range

actually the dealers are already stating $200k markups. So you're buying a $350k+ Chevy Corvette, that has as fast of a 40-80mph time than my modified MK7 GTI...

Problem is, if he doesnt pay the 25k, there's 10 people in line behind him who absolutely will.

Mightaswell pay because in the long run the car will triple in price by 2030, the 19 ZR1 now is worth a GT3RS while being sold for $120k

First world problems:(

Car manufacturers need to work out a new deal with the government so they can sell direct to customers. Dealers are ruining this for everyone.

That's ridiculous .. different world we're living in now

The biggest mistake GM made with the C8 (well, that and the styling). Oh well, a few wrecked Z06s later, and we'll probably start seeing them in C7s.

i think the c8 z06 might just be too fast for a manual lol

@@ryanzhang4897 I would gladly sacrifice a a few seconds on the 0-100 to be able to manually row through the gears, they would have to make or source new transaxle manual for it, not to mention the the linkage, shifter etc. Lotta R&D for an afterthought, would be cool though.

@@ryanzhang4897 There is no such thing as too fast for a manual

​@@samuelbonorden429 Facts. Just look at Group C cars! They could have easily made the C8 a Manual 6 speed

U can die if u can’t drive it properly and lack common sense

It is like getting the most expensive car in a video game. That sound

Uff

Fuck hybrids and electrics

Jim has been absolute garbage since the 90s, if you're in the Auto world you know this, just remember you're going to drop a buck 30 probably on one of these maybe a little more, it's like buying a Renault or a Fiat dude! I'd rather buy a 2-year-old recent NSX surgical machine! I drive American trucks and Japanese cars just saying, LOL. Toyota and Honda just make better s*** man! All the way around consumer to the company to the way they run their company the way their machines work and the factories the customer service is way Superior! And my dad taught me this in the early '70s and they're still winning. C8 cool car yes, is it worth the money? No.. at 60 Grand yes. ✌️🇺🇸

@@bsellman6881 a c8 is a cool car, the Z06 is something else entirely. I dont want a 2 year old NSX, I want American muscle while it still exists. You don't know me but I daily drive a Camaro which has been flawless, and I'm big in the auto world. Every car has its problems, some are worth the price tag, some aren't. Z06 seems fine by me but I'll be on the look out for some 6 month owner reviews.

@@RideWithDanger but it's not American muscle that term came from an era that actually defines a front engine high performance power plant, it could be rear engine for example the Shelby GT40 even though that's a difference story, that's a car that Chevy looked at and they're so cheap and government funded that, it's easier to cheat let's buy a Ferrari, but it's the same kind of unreliable garbage, with the different flavor you know it's not lemon it's lime but it's citrus LOL, I don't think this error is over and in fact the money is in the old cars there's a couple components you can't replace new technology with, if you know what I mean, it's real simple I love the co6 I have bad dreams about selling mine, LOL tuned trackworthy, beast, I could run with modern cars all day, had her 07. All mustangs are going to be made for at least 5 or 10 or maybe 15 more years or better, all the hoorah about global warming and we're going to battery Man this is going to be over pretty soon!

@@bsellman6881 I'm not sure what world you are living in, but enjoy it. I'm going to work hard and hopefully buy a Z06 because I want one. Sorry the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in a corvette isn't enough American muscle for you.

they ruined the corvette legacy with the c8, it's a good car, if a little ugly, but why make a completely new style of car that will never live up to the c5 and c6

@@houseking9211 "live up to the c5" 😂🤡🤡🤡

@@papa_pt the c5 is a legendary corvette than had tons of success in motorsport, which the c8 clearly will not have, it isn't a good enough car to compete with porsche or ferrari

@@houseking9211 why is it clear that the C8 won't have that? This is the most motorsport esque engine they've ever produced. 670hp NA starting at 106k vs. 500hp GT3 at 160k (assuming no options or markup)

@@papa_pt motorsport has very little to do with the roadcar, pratt and miller do their best work with front mid cars, not with whatever ugly 458 clone they're working with now. Plus gte is going to be dead soon and GM has never tried gt3 before which has even more competition

Yep. The flat plane car is the one to have.

It's bullshit, electric isn't the future at all, car companies are just comspiring to make it that way because it causes everything to cost more

Sounds exotic!

Um... not when these same cars are marked up 30-40k

@@EddieStixx what can you do, it’s part of the game🤷🏾‍♂️markups were inevitable idk why everyone is acting surprised now lol, just give it time, prices will come down.

Maybe the BEST time!

I say this as an owner of an STI. Meh, maybe the WRX shouldn't be on this list...

@@carlosmoreno9987 I felt I should include it for the WRX community, I mean Ik it wasn’t the most well received drop this year, but aye..I mean they tried lol, wish they would’ve just modernized the last Gen model, but they went a completely different route…..

Lotus did a wonderful job with the C4 engine. I was really hoping the engine that powers the Emira would be of Lotus design.

C6 w the ls7 should be on the list too. Because with only 8k in mods you can get it to be a reliable 600+whp NA z06. Actual bang for your buck before dealer markups like today's were a thing lol

@@GetShrektMrKrabs that is true. The LS7 is legendary. And retiring it out of the Corvette and slapping it in the Z28 Camaro was a good move on Chevrolet's part

They did the same with icons like the 1986 Grand National GNX and 1991 GMC Syclone AWD turbo S15 truck.

@@GetShrektMrKrabs The LS7 like this new motor was a proper race-bred engine. The LS7 is without a doubt my favorite pushrod V8 ever produced.

You are correct. We haven't reached the middle of the C8 lineup of cars.

I've also heard about an ERay version

True but I don't think those will be track focused like the Z06. The E-Ray will be too front heavy for tight corners, most likely even the most understeer prone of the lineup. As for the "Zora" it will be positioned as the straight line awd twin turbo monster. Faster than the Z06 on track? Possibly. As visceral as the Z06? No.

Also I don't think there will be a ZR1 of the C8. GM patented E-Ray and Zora two years ago, and Stingray and Z06 with the new fonts in 2018 and 2019. I would consider the Zora as the ZR1 replacement, it would make sense after all seeing as ZR stands for Zora Racer.

I wanna see what Hennessey does with one.

Agreed. I had not seen this color combo yet.

Eww mclarens sound like ass in comparison with there weak turbo v8s

@@Sideways_Singh tell me how you've never driven a McLaren, without telling me...

@@JacesOwnWorld tell me how uve never driven any performance car in real life and are a fake car enthusiast. How u comparing one of the weakest sounding cars to a n.a v10? Not a soul on the planet found mclarens too sound special. There not bad sounding, just boring compared to legendary n.a cars. Go play some more forza junior 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I thought the same. I was like damn that sounds like a lambo or McLaren. Got a bit of a beefy note to it. Sounds purely insane!

Yeah everything’s was stolen from Ferrari 458

It’s such a great track!! I agree, very underrated. The new back half it’s so fun

No doubt. I can't wait to get around it myself. I need to get another fun car. I'm thinking about picking up miata NA or NB. Not crazy fast or anything but fun enough in the corners out there in Western PA

its going to be electric

You could be right. The price will probably be monstrous as well!

There won’t be a ZR1 get your head out of the toilet!!

@@Bbc418 Why won't there be a ZR1, there was a ZR1 for the C6 and C7 why won't there be one for the C8?

@@sprite1086 why would there be, needs to be a end sometime! Z06 is more then enough!!

You are the smart one. I sold my C8 to make room for the ZO6. The jokes on me. My reservation number for the ZO6 won't come up until late next year.

@@ronretired282 Yeah, I knew even if I tried to get on a list that it would be at least a year anyway. My c6 is full blown race car now so I was looking for a fun date night car for me and the wife so decided to just get the stingray for now. hoping they'll produce the z06 faster than expected and you'll get yours quick and I can start looking at them sooner than later.

@@wasispeeding1021 good luck, everyone and their moms know that the Z06 will gain value the same way the C7ZR1 did. You shouldn’t have bought the stingray 🤷🏻‍♂️

Its 1 million times better then the disgusting ferrari turbo v8s they sell now. This is what ferrari wishes they had and could still sound like.

@@Sideways_Singh LOl I guess you haven't heard Ferrari V12 that red lines at 9k they still currently produce. and keep in mind GM model this entire car from a Ferrari that's 12 years old.

@@ahmadflemming9041 🤣🤣 of course I know of the v12s but those arent rear-mid engine cars there front-mid engine GT cars. There heavier and not as track focused. What do u mean they modeled this car from a car thats 12 years old? Its a modern chassis, modern engine, all GM made. Ferrari wished they still had naturally aspirated v8s in there rear-mid engine cars

@@Sideways_Singh smh Ferrari just released the SP3 rear mid engine V12 what are you talking about all their V12s are front engine cars? Secondly did GM not say they purchased a Ferrari 458 and broke it down to its last bolt to understand its chassis and engine from a engineering stand point. GM is not setting the bar heat lol.

@@Sideways_Singh oh yeah almost forgot, the New Ferrari SP3 V12 red lines at 9500 rpm

Not so fast. Ice isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Ferrari F12 entered the chat. 🙃

Oh, they will sell every one they make. Of course, you and I can't get one, but never mind that.

@@ToyKingWonder You and I can't get one yet, but 5-10 years is a different story. I can wait that long for a car this good.

My understanding is that they are having a harder time moving at least the C8s so who knows, you might be lucky

@@thehonesttruth8808 Not sure where you heard that, but a local dealer still has a waiting list 150 deep for the C8

With the valves open it’s basically straight pipes from the short distance from the cats to exhaust tips. If you remove the cats, that’s another story.

Welcome to embargo’s haha.

That black wing motor is so incredibly rare though

@@vexed_con Oh they totally are, which makes it just that much more interesting if you get one and figure out how to manage it.

What's the name of the sound

@@samgome01 it's "Industrial Strain" by Koven. The genre is drum and bass. Other dnb artists I recommend are Grafix and Dimension.

@@ItsBabaEro love you homie

They actually benchmarked it against the 458 Italia, same with the Shelby GT350 engine. I wouldn't call it "Ferrari's worst nightmare" when the car is based on something they made in 2009, but it is pretty good for an American sports car

@@SangheiliSpecOp Considering that 458’s especially the Speciale hold their value and Z06 being half the value it kinda is a nightmare. Granted dealer markups are gonna be what hurts the car.

@@MrWoods98 The people that want and can afford their Ferrari dream car, will buy the Ferrari. Regardless of how good this Z06 is. And it´s indeed VERY good. Ferrari is almost like a cult. And almost no one will cross shop them with money not being a problem. Corvette is best as a cost effective proposition, and that will be the main reason of buying one among the competitors. If markups are high, it will become a lot less appealing.

@@pokest225 I agree. Dealer markups and Ferrari’s brand recognition is what’s gonna hurt the Corvette.

@@MrWoods98 - I don't think it will hurt the Z06 - they likely won't be able to make enough to meet demand. I doubt we will see any of these sitting around on the lot waiting for a buyer.

Hennessy probably already building one lol

Can't

I think forced induction won’t go far on these motors. It’s got high compression and that aint good for boost

@@vexed_con its 12.5:1...absolutely perfectly acceptable for boost

@@vexed_con modern motor, most likely has direct injection. Even without direct injection, it's nothing meth injection can't handle

i dont think the zr1 will be boosted. i think it will be AWD with an electric front end. This will give them the MPG and emissions regulations they have to meet while also making a monster of a car.

I see 1000 hp in the future...

Hybrid system like nsx

​@@theone031 that's the Zora 1000 hp hybrid all wheel drive

You're right; there is no comparison. Ferrari doesn't even post ring times because they would get laughed out of Germany.

Spoken like a true casual

I don’t think you know what your talking about. I can get a Honda Civic turbo that can beat a Ferrari. Ferrari is just the name. No quality.

@@djchinot7229 that response made me actually laugh out loud! Thanks for that!🤣

Sorry about the disability Rob. Lamborghini and Ferrari are two of my favorite car brands. I can only afford used and that is ok by me. The C8 ZO6 will be purchased late next year to take the place of our C8 Stingray. And yes. I haven't used the full capabilities associated with the Stingray (7/10). So why a ZO6. Simple answer: I just want it! Rob, if you get lucky pick-up the C7 Grand Sport. That thing rocks on the track and street.

@@ronretired282 Thanks brother. I thought about getting a 70's or early 80's stingray and restoring it. But checked out the C7 you listed and think it's beautiful. But I still think Mid-engine is the sexiest.

No way better sounding than any modern Ferrari and has more power than most

@@Sam-mw5hx modern ferrari base models are over 700hp unless you mean roma which is a grand tourer and maybe you forget ferrari still have v12 na which sound better than any american car so stop inventing

That is very true. Ferrari owners will just add it to their stable of vehicles.

@@ronretired282 as a ferrari owner, i dont want a corvette getting its germs near my ferrari tbh

@@ronretired282 why would a ferrari owner buy a chevy lmao

@@user-ox5ir2rd6g I own a Chevy but it’s a Silverado. I also on a Ferrari F430 I don’t consider anything Chevy but a supercar, the c8 is oooooooook but the tail lights are hideous

Totally correct

Those orange things were cones. To this day the only stock cars I know that spit flames are the original Aventador and Murcialago SV (see Top Gear reviews of both cars to find flames)

Thank you!
