@kief4diamonds Corvettes are unreliable, rattle and squeak like crazy, have Walmart quality stereos and Kmart quality seats. Anyone that buys one new is a fucking IDIOT.
@waterfordjim why worry about the quality of the sterio and how soft the seats are its an american car its made to have the living hell driven out of it its all about power who gives a fuck about anything other than whats under the hood

The guy at the dealership must've replaced the Corvette's engine with a Ferrari's for this to happen.
I kid of course. This is the first incident I've ever heard of a Corvette catching fire. Was it an unlucky dud out of so many jewels or did the dealership screw it up?
did u know ford is losing the most money out of every manufacture in the world cause no one is buying them anymore and thats a fact it was on the news!
How typical for a chevrolet piece of cheap shit. Cheap stuff, that's why Toyota overtook it as the worlds best manufacturer. GM stands for Gone Motors.
not really just cause its an installation error doesnt mean its universal. didnt u learn anything from racism, thats so last generation. on top of that the chevrolet corvette is one of the top rated cars in the world for how well it was built. 500+ hp and still 30 miles to the gallon. btw chevys still waiting for a competitor to that :)
I have video of a couple different new at the time Dodge Vipers on fire. One of those videos is in my favorites.
A fire like that isn't cool and is inexcusable but it should be known Chryslers seem to burst into flames more commonly than any other auto make. Don't believe me, check out my channel vid and favorites!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Did you know that that's called being prejudice against GM, because their vehicles are so defective. Thats not immaturity. haha Now I'll say one "immature" statement, go and get yourself blown up in a defective GM product. It'll eventually happen sooner or later anyways.
GM defective lololol the only gms that are defective are pontiacts. chevys and caddys r best. besides the dealer he took it to didnt have a clue wat exhaust was lol
For all of you who say that corvettes are crap, and all American cars are crap how about you take a look at how many exotic European cars have been destroyed by electrical fires. Manufacturing defects happen in all makes and models of cars.
No, that is what u get when a dumb ass does not know how work on ur car. that is what u get for buying a vette??????????????????? Maybe ur the dumb ass who worked on the vette
Fiberglass may work on boats but thats one thing. Not the best idea in the world of cars. Cant do shit for work on the damage, just have to replace the whole thing its cheaper than patching. And when you're in a collision, what the hell is protecting anything and anybody in it. Nothing but a good looking weak ass crumbling shell. Gotta love the classic muscle cars...and the classic corvettes. Don't care for the ZO6. Love the Stingrays. Body metal cant be beaten by cheap looks. Glad the guys ok.
LOOOOLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! U DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING!! K the guy has a corvette.. and u tell him to get a honda.. DO U REALIZE HOW STUPID THAT IS YET?!?!
if you have a contract for any damage they can fix the vette change a few electronic parts and maybe a few ones of the engine and carbody work that's it LOL or maybe if it's a factory failure they give you another one I'm not from US so I dunno how things work there with ensuranse
6 simplle steps to buying an exploding chevy 1) buy a z06 2)get som exhaust work done 3) wait one day 4) drive it down a road 5) watch it burst into flames 6)run away as fast as you can and hope ur onstar is working if not call the fire department FAST. jk jk i hope the driver is ok
*throttle sound* 1,2,3,4,5,6, jk *skid* jk *skid* He hopes the drive is ok *smashes to the wall* now he isnt.
thats what went through my mind when I read your comment, bbmbodyboarding.
The idea behind this video was an old trick, not funny anymore, and the video in terms of quality and entertainment was very poor compared to other videos. sorry dude, thats the truth.
i thought the vid had great entertainment values, and yeah i do hope the driver is ok, but that is what u have to do in order to buy an exploding chevy man im telling u, do steps 2-4 on a ford and it will just make it sound amazing and perform better, do it on a chevy...it explodes.
stevenconnercollins best joke in the world hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....but there is something wrong with it ... the home is a little wrong... they just made it to the repair shop
I bet the owner parked in the grass, and the exhaust caught the grass on fire, burning the car. It happens alot when people park in their yard, or on the side of the road. The exhaust on those cars is low enough to touch the grass of a fresh mowed lawn. You got to watch out for that when owning a low vehicle. People that never owned a sports car don't know this, and end up burning their new car.
He just had some exhaust work done and they did a poor job on it which caused the fire. I forget the whole story, but it was due to the aftermarket exhaust installed incorrectly.
THAT REALLY SUCKS!! Maybe he took his car to a cheap ass exaust shop and they put the pipes way to close on the bottom of the car.I seen that happen before on a truck burning the rubber sleeve on the shocks of the truck.

have u heard of the 2012 Ferrari FF that caught fire while doing nothing ?
i mean waiting in the traffic and boom fire
another story: ferrari 458 italia catches fire
search the internet how corvette catches fire and how ferrari's do
annoyingly people keep talking about how poor GM build their cars and they never see how other cars are built.
hard plastic and leather is NOT QUALITY
i know someone will reply "do u mean corvettes are better built then bugatti's"
my answer is: go f*** ur self
