Art Morrison 3G 1960 Corvette

[MikeCalimari]

Takes some getting used to. Seeing '50's to '70's cars with O-ring tires.

[Jonathans69stingray]

Matt can u do a 1969 corvette

[TheFosterchild15]

for some reason i fucking hate this guy

[Bleichenbacher]

this is such a beatiful car. I'd really love driving one of these old corvettes on a nice coastroad. But to drive on roads it's not necessary tuning it. It's best original and slow. So i like don't like this car anymore now.

[Greendude33]

Never have been more jealous of Matt than I was watching him drive this...

[t8trg8tr]

Dammn the seating position is close to the wheel on that car. It doesn't look very comfortable. Cool car though!

[MikeCalimari]

@t8trg8tr Same with two seat T-birds, not for long legs or claustrophobes.

[saifraed]

all corvettes make me speechless

[limpkit2011]

wow, nice. but alot of money.

[CChiaravalli95]

matt's earlobes were flowing in the wind

[Dsmitti01]

Dear Santa..wait only 1 in the world... :\

[PeaceDisturber]

Great car, just not a fan of the wheels. 

[G35AndTGOD]

Really comparing this with an S2000? lol

[adrenalynejunky]

@G35AndTGOD from the frame geometry... lol

[gpotteiger]

Why are you not on Top Gear America....You're better than any of those guys you could replace that Ferrara jackass

[xingyiow]

i had to tune the volume when matt's driving and when hes introducing.

[jockeleu]

Only 52 thousand views.............. The fuck??

[fronsklu2]

such a sweet car

[mitch50100]

you can see his ear lobes flop in the wind

[FordV8Supercar]

Nice review man, I've been waiting for a good car test on this channel where you actually, you know, drive lol I like this!

[rdd014r]

Haha i like how the front tires would lock up but it would just drag them. Love the video though

[powderhund14]

the perfect car

[Bzapp725]

Just to hear the sound...

[mountainx0]

4:31 epic face

[Mikelaren101]

I think you guys found your new intro

[32fitnessfreak]

Hahaha You only dream about sex until you're getting a lot of it. Then you dream about 1960 Art Morrison Corvettes!

[skatethehouse999]

WHY CANT CHEVY MAKE EXACT REMAKES OF CLASSICS LIKE THIS BUT WITH MODERN TECH????? ITS SO SO ANNOYING SEEING THESE SHITTY 'REMAKES' OF AMAZING CARS

[skatethehouse999]

@skatethehouse999 i was not saying this was a shitty remake haha

[TheAstonMartian]

The new Corvette's sort of look like the 80's. Ah, I wish they brought back the 60's Corvette with some upgrades. I would buy it in a heartbeat. Instead, it's all about speed nowadays.

[Buttnut105]

Beautiful car but for overpriced hot rods, I'd go Eagle Speedster.

[unionrdr]

I'd like to see a review on the 2nd astro 2 corvette I saw at the car show at midway mall. It looked like a 70 vette made into a mako shark. supercharged,180 MPH road monster off the showroom floor...if it would've made it that far. Metallic blue beastie...!

[bottomlayer]

Just found this! For some reason the past two vids (this one and the Mulsanne) didn't show up in my sub feed!

[MercSLRFan]

The PS controller doesn't have a B button and the Xbox 360 doesn't have Gran Turismo = Fail.

[TheSmokingTire]

@MercSLRFan I hate video games and never play them, which explains why I don't know shit about them. I spend my time driving real cars on real tracks = win.

[MercSLRFan]

@TheSmokingTire It's because video games that car exists.

[TheSmokingTire]

@MercSLRFan um, no. The car was built and then it won the award and was put in the game. Not the other way around.

[namybot]

@TheSmokingTire We would all do the same if we had a job like yours but all of us don't have a clue how to get a job like yours :(

[TheSmokingTire]

@namybot you just do what I did and make it up.

[namybot]

@TheSmokingTire Yeah, I totally would. Having a job like this has been on my mind for a long time now, I seriously want to take it up as a Career. I have nearly passed my driving Lessons and i seriously see my self doing this job with a passion unmatchable by any other Automotive journalist.

You must have started out small scale somehow?

[xXBurntBaconXx]

@TheSmokingTire tbh it looks like you prefer to smoke weed and fall asleep?

[DrPilotRedC]

@TheSmokingTire Good point but he might be like me an is not even old enough to drive, let alone afford to do track driving.

[xxxangelxxxxx]

@TheSmokingTire

Doing that though, is not possible for every person, because of many factors like (financial status, country, luck, oportunities available etc.. ) that's why video games exist so that ordinary people can feel some of what it's like to drive supercars around. So don't reject them like that they can be really useful. ANd if you try a full simulator(sim game, wheel,pedals,stick, proper seat etc..) It can get quite close to real life in some ways..

[TheSmokingTire]

@xxxangelxxxxx I'm not saying people shouldn't play video games, I just personally don't like them all that much. More importantly, I don't like sitting around watching other people play video games, which is what always seems to happen every time we set up an xbox at the house. I've tried the CXC full-motion simulators and they are dope.

[wokeupthismorning100]

@TheSmokingTire Then why do I see a GT5 wheel?

[clinton252]

@MercSLRFan Lol Matt got you their.

[KidPepe1]

Why is there a new video?!!!!!! :(

[Ryoku75]

When I see Hot Rods like that one I assume that they were once rotting, rusty messes found at farm fields. Why else would Art use a new chassis?

[azelivin]

Were you smoking weed in the beginning there? What's with all the smoke?

[TheSmokingTire]

@azelivin no comment (that means yes)

[azelivin]

@TheSmokingTire lmfao...... you guys rock!!! Keep doing what you're doing.

[simonlondonBBK]

It weighs alot

[simonlondonBBK]

They made this car I wanna see the red bull x1

[ismellbacon911]

@simonlondonBBK This car was made before GT5 or GT5 prologue was. It's in the game because it won a gt award at the Sema Auto Show. The Redbull x2010-11, on the other hand, would be too expensive to build, probably in the range of $10,000,000. A video game team, even one sponsored by Redbull and with full access to all of their equipment, wouldn't spend that much money on a single car. However, if it was possible to fund the build, you would have a very painful ride even with a g-suite on. sorry

[dkirek196]

heyy show japanese cars some love. i would love to see a review of a lexus LF-A, the 2012 Nissan Skyline, maybe an Evolution X or WRX STI Sedan

[TheSmokingTire]

@dkirek196 The GTR, LFA, and STI are three of the hardest press vehicles to come by for testing. They are significantly more difficult to get than almost all other cars. I have a written review of the Evo X on our web site.

[cb7pwn]

@TheSmokingTire just wondering, these "press cars" you speak of.. are they the cars that ALL reviewers get (car and driver, motortrend, kbb, ect ect) ?? meaning they have the shit kicked out of them all day every day, and then the next guy to get them has to deal with the worn out engine and tranny and whatnot??? or is there 1 press car for each reviewer?? thanks

[TheSmokingTire]

@cb7pwn When a new car is built, a certain number of them, which gets smaller the more expensive the car, are set aside for media to loan out as review cars. Like a library full of cars and you can check them out like a book. While yes, they do get the shit kicked out of them, they are impeccably maintained in between, and get new tires, brakes, etc, when they need them. They rarely have over 10,000 miles. Some cars, like Lambo, Ferrari, and Lexus (LFA) only have 2 or 3 for the whole US.

[gummybearkiller1]

This is the perfect car for enjoying the essens of a true roadster in a fantastic looking package.

YES I WANT ONE!!

Just of curiosity, how much do i have to save up to buy/build/get this car or to get him to buld another?

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

This is sooooo unfair; i want it nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[TheSmokingTire]

@gummybearkiller1 Art said he wouldn't sell it and that the build itself cost $400,000

[gummybearkiller1]

@TheSmokingTire Wow

Well i wouldnt sell it either.

That is an astonishing car

[That70sRocker]

Out of curiousity, what is your opinion about convertibles to coupes?

[TheSmokingTire]

@That70sRocker Depends entirely on the car. In general, I like them though.

[iMatt928]

i love how comedic you are matt!! makes the reviews that much better!

[Nato61]

That was great. Thank you.



[SagaraSouske]

Yes it is, it's the most impressive restomod I have ever seen lol

[MarMPB]

Great video, one of my favorites!! Awesome car...

But now Matt you NEED to test the Superformance Corvette Grandsport!!!

[skorpinox]

I want one!

I'm no longer surching for girl to pass the rest of my life with, I want car!!!!!!!

[faztclix]

5:32 Think he meant the R2 trigger!

[lKingCobra]

Sounds Amazing best sound !

[mihalachedoru]

that was the most awesome burnout shot I've ever seen! And I'm not into burnouts... it was awesome Matt

[dewfall56]

I'm sure some deserving bank CEOs will have theirs soon.

[jamestaggreen2]

Forza is better than Gran Turismo just saying lol

[SOLIDSNAKEONLY1]

Yeah, but whats happen when its raining? i tell you, your fucd.

[terr0rwolf]

I coudn't find a data sheet, are there more informations about the V8 in this available? It sounds glorious!

[TheSmokingTire]

@terr0rwolf I can't remember the builder, but I do know that it is not an LS based engine.

[kjz28]

@terr0rwolf Bill Mitchell Hardcore all-aluminum 427-inch SBC crate engine with Wilson Manifolds throttle body and spacer, and a set of Wilson fuel rails.

[TheSmokingTire]

@kjz28 good call, thanks for the backup.

[x360racer]

Love it! Way better than The Car Show.

[venom5809]

Sweet Jesus this thing looks, sounds and performs incredibly.

It just sounds goddamn amazing.

i disagree that this car will be worthless in 20 years. I think it is incredible enough to actually hold most if not all of its value. 

[Dance1617]

That car sounds god like... :D

[RichardEllisxyz]

@TheSmokingTire Yes it is a hacked up Classic............it will be worthless twenty years or less from now. It's all about fashion, what is "cool" today will be downright funny in due time. Sad part is, since its been hacked, most will say "why"?What would you say of a vintage Boss 429 Mustang that was hacked for the short wheelbase "AA Altered".....the 'in' thing back then. Why?? Because it was the thing to do. Don't mess with the classics, you're just destroying irreplacable entitties.

[RichardEllisxyz]

@TheSmokingTire Yes it is a hacked up Classic............it will be worthless twenty years or less from now. It's all about fashon, what is "cool" today will be downright funny in due time. Sad part is, since its been hacked, most will say "why"?What would you say of a vintage Boss 429 Mustang that was hacked for the short wheelbase "AA Altered".....the 'in' thing back then. Why?? Because it was the thing to do. Don't mess with the classics, you're just destroying irreplacable entitties.

[TheSmokingTire]

@RichardEllisxyz maybe, but in 20 years it will still drive awesome, and that's what's important.

[kjz28]

@TheSmokingTire I agree, who wants to drive a car that looks fast but drives like a cruise ship. I love Pro-touring, its the best thing that ever happened to Hot Rodding.

[Logicalification]

@RichardEllisxyz I would hardly call the mods and work done on this "hacked up." The shape remains the same, the paint is tame but beautiful. It just drives brilliantly now.

[enigmaPL]

@RichardEllisxyz im sorry, i honestly don't see where you're coming from on this, at least for this particular car.... they took the corvette and made it better while MAINTAINING the integrity, looks and style of the original, while simply beefing it up to perform alot better than the budget-build GM released.... so if that's somehow wrong, i don't want to be right.

[acidmatar]

@RichardEllisxyz who cares? the person who bought it didnt buy it for others to look at cuz its cool , the person who bought it loved it , that wont change in 20 or 40 years , u dont like it ,ull never like it , alot of people do however and it will live on...

[Rhickey76]

I love the matte black dillon glasses thoes look and seem so cool. with i had the cash... all mine goes to my mustang :)

[blindchicken2001]

You are like the american version of Jeremy Clarkson it's awesome

[TD94S]

I see you've driven amazing machines Matt..I feel curious to ask you what cars you've owned in your life?

[CPTFiXtion]

dude Matt, screw being a machinist. i want YOUR job! lol you got some crazy connections if you got to play in that vette. im jealous!

[isaachaze1]

what did those tires ever do to YOU???

[starksy17]

why doesnt it sound like this in Gran Turismo! D:

[termantor28]

Im not into classic cars but o-m-g thats so damn sexy!

[jongriffin747]

I am sorry rich folk but that is a beautiful car with the power to boot

[SheVMachellio]

Holyshit, why does it sound like that? Thats the most beautifulest thing I've ever heard in my life!

[jckgoldness]

beautiful car

[beautyinmetal]

beautiful car.. great video.

[chrisdraper2007]

My God.......



[patrickpp14]

I wonder if this Art Morison can hang with Matt's corvette? hmm...

[dudexx1231]

Your show is much better than Adam Corolla's with the lame comedy. Great commentary and production.

[order9066]

That's how I like my car reviews, free of british accents.

[muscletruckdude]

the speed channel should drop the car show and pick up the smoking tire but still let you have full say on what you wanna do. im sure alot of people would be happy

[dieseldan420ca]

Beautiful camera shot's!

Desert at sun rise and set in a 530hp Art Morrison Vette FTW

[TheSmokingTire]

@dieseldan420ca sunset, but thanks.

[427danderson]

YES... this video was perfect... I especially like the line concerning dreaming about sex... awesome job TST!

[awdrifter3]

That's just cool. Now I need to buy that car in GT5. :P

[bloloko]

America's e-type. What a sublime-looking vehicle, with a true fuck you sound. I want it soooooooo bad.

[viperq]

Love that sound.

[kiko1605]

matt, do you know of the hotrodscustomstuff mercedes-bent-1961

oh jeh baby.. i think/hope it's in the same league as the Vette

check it out and please please do a review of it..

[GrimR]

Nice. It's pretty much a track only car with no top, and yet your head will serve as a roll bar before the roll bars will. Also, it still has the fail aerodynamics. As just a fun muscle car though, I'm sure it could be a blast.

[TheSmokingTire]

@GrimR it's definitely street legal, not a track only car.

[RTMRome]

BEST SMOKING TIRE EPISODE TO DATE!!

[cb7pwn]

i was gonna look into a pair of Dillon optics, till i saw the price..im no cheap ass, but what a fucking rip off lol

[TheSmokingTire]

@cb7pwn good technology, whether its sunglasses or an ipad, costs money.

[TheSteroidRodeo]

@cb7pwn Paid more for my Oakleys bro they look like a pretty good deal to me.

[mjeatsies]

man matt you are the true jeremy clarkson of america.

[neostardust]

This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. And certainly the coolest thing I've ever heard!

[n9athan]

LOL the car show declined this, thats ridiculous.

[NotSoFastDriver]

The most popular GT5 drifting car.

[jockeleu]

Great video, awsome presenting, insane car.

[NavyAviation2016]

Holy jizz that's a sweet whip.

[Karto86]

great episode

[echtogammut]

Thanks for another great review.

[FabrezeFRESH]

Probably the only cool Corvette to be built.

[rolando4812]

I can say I enjoy your solo segments much better than watching the car show. Wish there were more people on the show that gave unbiased opinions about cars like you do. It was funny when art morrison handed you the keys and you said "Art Morrison?"

[TheSmokingTire]

@rolando4812 it was a wayne's world throwback. And you like these segments better than the car show because we know what you guys want to see better than hollywood producers do.

[RussianBear22]

Awsome car, it might now destroy Matt's face, but it definetly went after his ears!

[captBLOTTO]

man that thing sounds great.

awesome editing and sound work

[AlternativeUses]

great video.!!!

[saavaa]

Intro is supposed to be funny?

[muhammadzak]

you are the man matt, i really like the way you present the smoking tire reviews, best of luck all the time, i wish we can meet and talk about cars alittle :D although we are in different countries, keep it up and waiting for more from you

[grimlock122]

that car was never seen again. except by matt farah

[grimlock122]

corvette wants a hug.

[Colleptic2]

This was one of your best so far!

[jonsimcoe]

Your videos are the most talented. Such good work. I don't know how you get to drive all these cars, especially the Art Morrison. Very cool.

[buickboy92]

Amazing stuff!

[100littlecurses]

Damn I thought it sounded great in the game, but damn that's awesome.

Also, its not the B button. Its square.

[05front]

that was not a car review that was art at its best. so beautiful Matt. just so beautiful

[05front]

that was not a car review that was art at its best. sooooo beautiful matt. just so beautiful

[ChickenCritters]

Matt review a vr1

[ChickenCritters]

I dont get it, you guys have better videos than. Boring motor trend amd many other boring car reviews.

[TheSmokingTire]

@ChickenCritters what's not to get?

[ChickenCritters]

@TheSmokingTire You guys don't have as many views, and aren't getting a few dollars out of it. But you sure get to drive some of the sickest cars out there, that most people could dream of

[TheSmokingTire]

@ChickenCritters we know what you guys want to see, and we don't have a big corporation to please.

[Egg1456]

Nice intro Matt i dig it

[msgtcody]

Matt whats the name of the type of Dillion sunglasses you are wearing?

[Smachadams]

That car sounds like sex..

Wait no, better..

[ruskiyify91]

Washington license plates? why the hell would you get a roadster in a state where it rains shit tons of rain?

[ruskiyify91]

washington license plates? why the hell would you get a roadster in a state where it rains shit tons of rain?

[redskins26fan]

Lol at bruce jenner joke

[Stuka87]

Great video of a great car. And the production quality of these videos just keeps getting better and better :)

[kevinbrueck]

That V8 note is sweeeeeeet!

[agent47racing]

Some great camera shots Matt.

[cb7pwn]

so...this is one heavy ass car then, eh Matt?... ;)

[aarikc17]

awesome awesome awesome

[redliner90x]

I agree with you, I haven't heard a more perfect V8 noise coming out of any car. Even if this car was bad in every category, I'd buy this car for the looks and sound a lone.

Good job on the production work that is giving us that wonderful sound.

[CJAEY]

Ive always seen this car in GT5 but never bothered to look it up, nice
