This is why I like AWD cars. You can drive full potato like I do and the computer will keep the car on the road in conditions that would normally have you doing 360's onto some guys lawn

a 5.5 32-valve DOHC flat-plane-crank from GM with a TT setup seems utterly insane since they have zero experience with putting all that into one package, and imo the 5.2 voodoo wasn't exactly worth the engineering feat that went into it

I don't really understand all this 'new' tbh, that's a ton of stuff GM isn't exactly re-known for doing well crammed into one new engine

The twin turbo setup i understand but i'm sure they were helped by other engineers from other manufacturers on how to make a proper high performance turbo system work on these cars.

GM is no noob to high performance. They were able to make a lot of power, dating back decades out of a small block pushrod engine. Other manufacturers were relying on dual overhead cam setups.

And i don't think there's really anything "new" about the future for corvette other than the twin turbo route.

The DCT is made by tremec. They know how to build transmissions. Similar to dodge, bentley, etc going with a ZF trans. ZF is a known reputable company. They didn't just try to build something in house, they got outside help to make the chit work.

GM wasn't about to destroy the corvettes' legendary history with unknown powerplants they don't know about. I'm sure whatever they have in store, they are confident it'll work. Otherwise they probably would have pushed these ideas towards the cadillac division and if it failed, who cares because its caddy lol.

This is what I think too, GM is gonna kill it with this new engine setup hnnnggggg

The Huracan popularity is based on this.

It looks and sounds amazing, it legit fast and you need to really fuk up to end up in the woods.

[Mumra]

F**k. I'm going to end up buying a Corvette.

[EdwardTheGreat]

Fukk, not sure I could hate those wheels more

[IH8RICE]

Fukk, not sure I could hate those wheels more

Those and the rear end need some adjusting and the car would be 9.7/10

[Mark1T]

Agree ^^ Put some fine wheels on it and it's a big winner. Black looks good.

[SouthDakotaBrah]

I don't even think the wheels would look that bad if the car were lowered - I really think its the fender gap (it just makes the wheels look like they don't "fit").

[1QWIK7]

I see a C8 in your future bro lol. You might actually be more excited about this car than me LOL.

Black really looks good on the C8. I'm not getting a black one, probably ceramic matrix gray or arctic white but let's not forget this is the base model lol.

The z06 and the upper tier trims are going to look even better. More aero, lowered, better wheels, wider. I phucking can't wait to place my order on the z06 already.

[iifymbro]

yeh gunna get one eventually ^, prob the z06

one take 'just the sound' around a track:

[knightofday]

HNNNNNNGGGGGGG fuk, swap out those ugly ass wheels and this thing is sexy af! Chevy fuking killed it with this new design!!!!!!1

[knightofday]

yeh gunna get one eventually ^, prob the z06

Those shifts sound INSTANT fuuuuuuaaarrrrkkkkkkk

Might sell a kidney to buy one srs

Great video. Yeah, the shifts sound quick. Matt couldn't say anything, but did you notice how flat it took every corner? He also didn't drive it that hard, but it was quick and the tires barely did skid at all. It's a fast car and the Zo6 is going to kill the track.

Holy chit!!!

About time some "real" footage of this car.

Jesus look how flat the car looks around the track, it's like on rails. What's impressive as well is how quiet it is inside the cabin, when when "racing". It's a well built car. Not even tire noise or anything. It looks quick man and matt looks like he wasn't even hitting redline in most of the gears. And it looks damn quick.

The z06 and zr1 is going to absolutely destroy everything in sight. Holy phuck. GM really did it. They are making everyone a corvette fan now LOL

[Mark1T]

So, now we have to wait until mid-November for some real reviews. We are used to waiting and this video is a good taste.

[sumolgi]

Not even close. Some of us are disappointed that it's the first 'vette that won't come in a men's. Would much rather row gears on the weekend and this isn't a DD for the traffic here.

[tunafishha]

How can I afford one?

I heard october 16. So couple of weeks.

No. I Mean people who are actually going to buy one.

Not people who just wanna complain that something isn't offered when they had no intention on getting the car in the first place.

They are targeting a broader audience. Not trying to appease the small .001% of people who just has to have a "stick" to wiggle around when driving.

Manuals are the past. This is the future. DCT.

That's better.

The new hardtop convertible was revealed on IG. Thing looks sweet.

Phuck that. Who gets a convert corvette? lmao

Did you see the C8R race car??

HOLY PHUCK!!

I look at that and think, "so that's what the z06/zr1 c8's will look like, minus the decals" lol

[Weezy32]

The car is definitely beaurifull would love to have one one day.
