  • any chevy dealership who doesn't want to let someone test drive the car is stupid. I cant test drive it? Fine, you LOSE the sale.

  • I'm a owner of a vette and the I don't know what people dislike about the interior, I love it I dumped the seats for recaro racing seats and I kill ferraris I love my vette!

  • speeding ticket yellow is my favorite

  • The interior is not as bad as people think and I have sat in many. I'm a former Mercedes Benz tech so every interior is not going to be great IMO, but The performance and reliability is hard to beat. Look at Consumer reports on Corvette Owner Satisfaction and it has been number one for years by the owners surveyed. Get behind the wheel and you won't care about the interior when 120 mph shows up on the dash real quick. Go buy an M3 if you want a nicer interior with much less performance.

  • this guy needs to grow a pair, what else are you going to do with 500hp, its there to put a smile on your face and to blow the pants off the ricer in the lane beside you

  • It's too bad Chevy thinks so little of it's buyers that is keeps making the Vette with such a low quality interior and materials. And the seats are a fucking joke..ask any car magazine..they've been begging chevy to put better seats in the vette for years. This is why these cars sit for so long in dealerships..people know they should be getting a better and more modern interior for all that cash. I'm not going to buy one until chevy does this, and that goes for many of my friends/family too.

  • i come from germany we can drive as fast as the car can

  • Unless insurance companies have changed their ways, aren't yellow cars lower on insurance? and red is the ticket to getting pulled over.

  • my uncle HAS a corvette zo6 (2010)

  • Hi, i'm Dave Thomas from cars.com and i'm going to bore the fuck out of you!

  • I am a honda guy but my favorite is still a 07 Z06, because frankly it is the most affordable supercar on the market, most reliable, nearly the fastest, best sounding and looking etc, I hope to eventually get one in a couple years

  • Hi im Dave Thomas, and in the following video, i am going to put absolutely no emotion into the incredibly sexy corvette i am talking about.

  • Fuck the XLR.

  • Yellow is the nicest color dude,especially with the chrome wheels the contrast makes fo an awesome look.

  • Me : help police an egg eating green belt gun holding cholo is after me

    Operator: this is a joke right sir?? jajajaja

  • Comment removed

  • thats one of the few american cars that i truely like..but damn that guy makes me want to scrap the damn thing..

  • i eat eggs everyday and I fucking hate this video why do you fuk-screw yourself any day of the week this vid makes me sick and it is inappropriate as hell trust me i am as responsible as a doctor but when i am serious i am serious don't fuck with me for i am in a street gang and have been taking karate for 2 years i am a green belt for who that don't know what that is it is a big accomplishment you faggots i love to go shooting with my gun it is loud but don't wrong me it has a lot of kickback!

  • 1:36 lol

  • fuck i dont give a crap about safety and gas mileage its about the hp

  • I love that car.

  • will break ur back if u drive it on the streets. not an everyday car.

  • wish i lived over in america :(

  • needs a twin turbo kit 

  • Gotta give the yanks credit. The car's not that refined.who cares? Shattering performance + miniscule male reproductive organ compensation is what it's all about.

  • @VerbalBlitzkrieg . the interior isn't that bad as people make it. the performance is great. light car with a big motor and good brakes that turns at over 1G in a corner. what more can u ask for. I love mine

  • I have to agree with it all. The interior does leave a lot to be desired BUT I didn't buy it for what's between the doors rather what's under the hood. Other than the GTR, not much can can touch it for the money.  Mod it, hardly anything can touch regardless of the price

  • @06C6Z06 gtr is 90k so it should be compared to the zr1 which kills it

  • @thevettedude66 When the Z06 first came out in late 05' they were fetching $25K over sticker. Same withe the GTR. Nowadays, it is readily available to the masses for its base price of around 70K, depending on which part of the country you live in. The ZR1 is $100K+ all day long everywhere. Anyone that pays $90 grand for a GTR today is a total idiot

  • @thevettedude66 zr1 is far mopre expensive than a gtr and overall on the street the gtr is the better car.

  • Nanny mode my ass, and the Corvette's interior is not old looking. Ahhh and bud there is not a damn thing wrong with Yellow.

  • Its just crazy how many people have no clue,about the corvette.'mI gonna say it ,90% of yall posting dont even have a Vette! prolly havent even been in one. some of the post are just retarded! Just look at my screen name it says it all. And you can find me on the Forum! And those that have Vettes know what im talking about.

  • I know what youre talkin bout...

  • I dont have a corvette. But I rented it from HERTZ three times. This thing is a rocket and should require a more advanced drivers licence. Deff one a my favorite cars.

  • @1EVILZ06 ur lucky to a have Z06. I can afford the payment a C6Z but I cant afford the insurance til I turn at least 24. I have a 370z and I like it but I have always wanted a Z06 since I first the saw the C5Z's. I havent driven a C6Z yet but the stupid ass salesman who took me for a spin in one turn the traction control off and nearly wrecked it on accident. He even asked me to drive it back since he was so shooken up. I didnt for liability reasons but regret not doing it now lol

  • @psmTARDCORE

    How much is it to rent one, and how long do you have it?

  • @MrMarlboroman17 I dont nkow I was looking to buy it. I know Hertz or I have *HEARD* Hertz dumbs down the Z06's but you can rent them.

  • @1EVILZ06 exactly. I dont own a vette. I have a Stang but I love and respect Corvettes. Its rare that you find someone on youtube who actually knows a damn thing about automobiles. Most of these kids couldnt even tell you where the spark plugs were if you popped the hood for them. but they talk outta their ass all day like they know something. Good to meet you man

  • @1EVILZ06 I owned a c4 and loved it. but this thing, ding ding! here comes the shit-mobile

  • @1EVILZ06 I have one too, just let it be, people will talk shit all day, and who cares? We know what we have and we know what it is capable of...that's all I need to know. People talking about GTR's and Vipers and whatever have probably never driven a car with real power. Everything looks good on paper, comparing 0-60 times and quarter miles times...fucking bullshit, go drive a car.

  • the best car ever !!

  • I sent resumes there Chard, they have'nt gotten back to me yet to frito lay and pepsi, and I drink pepsi too damnit!,lol

  • i want to make love to this car!!! im not sure how though i just might stick my dick in the gas tank or something

  • exhaust pipe lol

  • Not trying to be offensive, to each his own. If I won the lottery, it would be a murcielago roadster (black with yellow interior and yellow/chrome lip 20" Asanti's.) If I had 100k a year job, a ZR1. But for me and most normal people, the Z06 or just a procharged base vette is the best choice and pound for pound best sports car.

  • if i won the lotto id be a Murc SV hahah. I would just buy an M3 id i was a 100k job guy lol. But im neither becuase im 17 so its 350z for me haha

  • @FSUDELUXE10 Cool I actually used to have a '91 300ZX when I was your age and a '04 350Z a few years ago. I'm rockin a SRT8 Charger right now. I'm lookin to get a Z06 in about 1-2 years. FWIW I can't recommend a Charger guys, it's quick but if you're not into huge sedans you'll hate it after awhile.

  • I have a 100K a year job and no way can I afford a ZR1. I have Kids! But I am considering an 06-07 Z06. That is a bas ass car. I drove an 04 Z06 with a lot less hp and that car was fast! I can only imagine an 06.

  • I make 100k a year and I did buy a 2008 Z06 off the showroom floor. My kids are all grown up and it's nice to finally treat myself to a badass car! Empty nest at 48 years of age. Glad my wife and I started early!

  • If you don't mind me asking, what is it that you do?

    My father and I plan on purchasing a few franchises when we return to the States.

  • I work for a little Company called Pepsico. They own Pepsi cola, and the company I directly work for...Frito-Lay.

  • Ah, I see. Thank you.

  • @AJballer I make that but can't afford a ZR1. Well if i didn't have a house to pay for maybe i could.

  • You can get an '06 Z06 for about $42k. intake, headers, cam, tune for about $2,600. You now have less than $45k invested and have a 600hp, streetable, reliable, cheap maintenance, near 30mpg, beautiful, BAD ASS car. Your european and japanese crap can simply not compete with that I'm sorry.

  • headers are like 3 g's and exhaust is like 2-3 g's as well........i dunno about $2600 and you'll get a 600 hp z06

  • Yeah for Kooks Custom Headers and full Corsa exhaust. You don't have to buy top-of-the-line shit to make power.

  • i wouldnt say theyre top of the line...i saw these parts on ebay , unless u know a place that has these parts for a lot less

  • Dude, you don't have to pay 3 grand for headers. LG motorsports Longtubes are under $1700. you can make a badass custom exhaust for well under a grand. and a diablosport predator will run you about $370 or you could get a 3-pull dyno tune for about $700 at any shop. there, ya happy?

  • Oh yeah and Lg motorsport says their headers are gauranteed more hp and tq than any other brand of header, so yeah man Ebay doesn't always have the best deals.

  • I like pull-me-over orange.

  • lol

  • Yellow is the color of corvette racing! Ill take the z06 in only yellow.

  • this is one amazing car.

  • that is of the coolest gauges ive ever seen!!!!!.....

  • i like this part 0:50

    its an AMAZING car

  • my moms volvo always has electronical problems, it has 106 thousand on it, my jeep has 206k and not a problem what so ever, american cars are made to last and they do if buy one you would know

  • and where did you get these statistics?

  • lol,right my german ml320 had the most electrical problems i have ever seen, my fathers italian fiat broke down constantly, my mothers english mg had more problems then my 99 malibu ever had

  • Yeah thats why we see sooooo many old BMWs on the streets here. Once they pass the 4 year free maintenance part of their lives they get traded for something else because they are too expensive to repair every other month.

  • @crustpunk They are also boring as hell!

  • lol. my friend has a bmw m3 and her car is in the shop every other week due to electrical probs and my uncle has a 92 corvette zr1 with 230,000 miles on it and has no problems at all. he just has to go to the shop once in a while for regular maintenance.

  • Comment removed

  • Dave, can we still trade the fries for a baked potato, salad, or chili?

  • I'd be happy with just a base vette, they have more than enough power, but the Z06 would be nice, they say money doesnt bring happiness, but I'd probably be slightly up beat if i had the cash to go to the local chevy dealer and pick up one of these babies.

  • this car is so god damn sexy

  • Z06 can't compare GTR or 997 turbo. ZR1 is the only choice...for those who can afford it

  • I am in love with this car. Hail to CORVETTE~!

  • fool...505 bhp; not all of it goes to the rear wheels

  • Ya they need a guy that actually knows about cars, not someone that can just read a cue card.

  • I think he just means that the power goes to the rear wheels, instead of being AWD or FWD.

  • your an idiot...the gtr and the gt2 are 2 diffrent cars you douche...why dont you go back to your hotwheels and keep that cock holster closed ruhoolio...idiot..

  • Dave Thomas, eh? He sort of looks like the Wendy's guy's son or something.

  • put the GT-R against a ZR1

    the GT-R has no chance

  • fail

  • Z06 is THE baddest ass 'Vette on the planet. period.

  • i think id rather have zr1

  • on my last comment i meant to say this: The ZR1 is THE baddest ass 'Vette on the planet. period.

  • ooo lol got it lol

  • lol! sorry i was on auto pilot that day! lol

  • btw, does cheeseburgers and hot dog stands come w/ this car?

  • I heard the Z06 is only 60k, now its 90?

  • bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bl­a>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>­bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bl­a>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>­bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bl­a>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>­bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bl­a>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>­bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bla>bl­a>bla>bla>

  • beautiful car... totally up the sports car range..

  • everytime i view a corvette video someone always has to post something up about the gtr. stop comparein circles and triangles. they are two totally diffrent cars and have nothin to do with eachother.

    its a corvette video so keep the comments on the corvette

  • @freshkid5506 besides the gtr is garbage lol.

  • @freshkid5506 i agree...i read up on the gtr..i have am certified in sport automotive technologies.. and they actualy said that the only car that compares to the new GTR is the corvette z06...how bout that...and we all know the z is faster...

  • @hellbound413 and then comes along the ariel atom for 50 grand and spanks both the GTR and corvette Z06 ass in the quarter and on the track and in accleration what a shame. lol

  • @iceman241111 Um are you retarded?? The ariel atom is an frame and engine on wheels it weighs nothing. And besides is not even a REAL car. Ucant do normal everyday things with it. Hey why are you even watching a car video if u going to make a stupid comment like that??

  • @marque27 Why cant you do normal everyday things with an ariel atom your the one that sounds retarded. And how is it not a real car just cause you say it isnt that makes it not a real car wow i guess alot of cars arnt real then cause you said so who made you the person who decides. How come all the magazines say it is a real car i guess you better tell them other wise o mighty one. lol

  • @iceman241111...4. You are missing 4 periods.

  • @iceman241111 An Ariel Atom is just a race car with shit to make it street legal. It has no real body to speak of. you couldn't go to the store and buy anything brcause there is no place to put it. If you get caught in the rain you're going to get wet. If it get under 40 degrees outside you will freeze. It is like having a motorcycle with 4 wheels. A fun ride to go cruising or to the track but that is it.

  • @zakspop Wel lthats all i want is a fun ride to go cruising and for the track and also to beat the shit out of any punk that wants to race what else would you want a fast car for?

  • gtr is boring looking not like a corvette which is and has always been a fantastic looking car.Vette beats most cars on the track, awsome.

  • Vette is all motor 505hp, while still getting better MPG than the other so called sports cars. How long will the turbos in really last hmmm...

  • yeah the ls7 vettes get better gas mileage than my ford focus, and it has 136 hp and the vettehas 500+hp

  • Veyron=totally different car for 1.6M, and a W-16 engine. For what it's worth other reviews, like Top Gear, have said its handling isn't all that good, just straight line fast. Anyway, the Gt-R is pretty incredible, but the ZO6 has better weight, better HP/TQ, more displacement. Basically, the 4 wheel drive and the trans help its 0-60 times, but even at that I'm suspicious that the company sent a "massaged" engine to the mags to review. Also, putting a 'charger on a zo6 is just that much better.

  • I seem to want to agree with you because due to the weight of the GTR at Approx: 3,800 pounds is ridiculous for it to be that fast with a much overrated 480HP/430TQ, dont get me wrong those numbers for an engine are awesome, but not that awesome to have such great 0-100 times, furthermore getting a 0-60 in the 3.3-3.5 range seems rediculous to me with a car that heavy, even with a top of the line launching computer controlled takeoff system.

  • The GT-R can't compare to the ZR-1 on any level, only complete idiots who lie to themeselves every minute of their lives can argue with themeselves. There is no replacement for displacement my friends, horsepower to weight ratio will only get you so far until the torque question comes into mind. Its all about torque to weight ratio.

  • never ment to compete ,gtr is to go against z06.

  • Can't wait for the targa top ZO6. Awsome car!!

  • Could someone explain to me what you would have to do to test drive one of these bad boys? I haven't tried yet so I have no idea what to do lol.

  • don't, my bet

  • the gtr is the ugliest super car on sale and ur paying for a nissan, sont get me wrong its great car not nno history o back it up.

  • ?

    if your going to buy a real car, like a corvette, you shouldn't give a shit about the efficiency. Corvettes are designed as a track car, thus eliminating the need for a very High MPG car.

    But, corvettes already have crazy MPG.

    Hell, corvettes are now cheeper than GTR's, so in fact, they are a better bang for your buck car. Go buy a 1997-2004, put in a stroker, and go kick the shit out of some GTRs.

  • Horsepower isn't everything. The GT-R is dollar for dollar and pound for pound a better car than the Z06. If you think putting a "stroker" is the way to go take a look at the Veyron which ran a SLOWER time on the Nurburgring than the GTR. And that thing is designed to handle and ground 1k HP, unlike a 2wd corvette.

  • are you stupid buddy.

    gtr cant be driven without there stability traction control thing or it voids there warrenty.

    look it up . gtr can also only be launched 15 before the transmission blowsup

  • What he talking about... Yellow is the best color. That is if you want your Z06 to be noticed.

  • Exactly what I thought. I love the Yellow, and then Atomic Orange..

  • The ZO6 is the bang for the buck

  • Now I see that Corvette is the best car in the world. It doesn't have aerofoil or winglets in the rear and it still is more stable than any top Mercedes-Benz or Ferrari, and yet brings much more per each dollar invested than the expensive European rivals.

    Also the Corvette seems to be even more comfortable.

    How can Corvette be more stable than the others with a smoother design?

    Corvette beats the laws of Physics. Corvette is a much better car than Rolls-Royce.

  • uhh theres really nothing wrong witht the interior...the only thing that i dont like is the center plastic. the 427 interior is the only one i like

  • THE Z06 IS A 10.9@129mph SEC CAR AND 200MPH %100 STOCK AND ALL CAUGH ON TAPE.. WHY PEOPLE SAY 11.44@127 TOP SPEED 198mph????

  • Because 90% of the people that owns the ZO6 don't have the skill to run 10.90. Most ZO6's I have seen run mid to low 11's. Thats why people the claim is low 11's because that is all that most people will pull with a ZO6.

  • tru the power is amazin and the exterior is great lookin but bugs me a lil that the interior is plastic almost everywhere

  • What´s wrong with pastic? U wanna pay 70k dollars or 150k dollars for a supersport car? Gimme some american muscle and plastic everywhere and I´m gonna date the most gorgeous girls on my neighborhood... LOL

  • this guy is absolutely right...the exterior is new and high tech but the touchscreen stereo and digital/computerized gauges are definitely last decade...im sure

  • I completely AGREE. The Corvette is an AMAZING machine. Dollar, performance, you name it; it's astonishing. (and it's only getting better; e.g. the up and coming ZR1!)

  • The GTR will probably be sold $15,000 + above MSRP... which means these two cars wont compete MSRP vs. MSRP. However, a Standard Corvette w/ the LS3 is the best value, $44,000 for 0-60 in 4.3 seconds with 18-27 mpg. Theres no doubt the GTR will smoke a lot of cars that are dramatically more expensive, but it has yet to be proven as reliable for daily use and competitive use as the C6 Corvette.

  • "Corvette".  nuff' said

  • umm no

  • what would you choose: this or Audi R8 ?

  • they dont make r35's anymore just another japanese failure

  • R35 smoke this shit.

  • not in a straight line, ass fuck

  • your probably getting minus point cuz you are wrong... i guess my beater saturn is faster than the new gt-r cuz it doesnt take it over 3 seconds to from 0-10mph... haha!

  • r35 smoke what? ur ass? i thing ur a 16 nissan dreamer r a nissan fan. the z06 is bit faster than r35, moron

  • WTF IS A R35?

  • R35 IS THE NEW JAP JUNK

  • you're a fucking idiot, and the ZO6 hits 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, not over 4 seconds.

  • 3.7s=0-60mph (MT)

    retard

  • Was I talking to you? No I wasn't. Retards like you, need to learn to only speak, when spoken too.

  • Braap250r, you got told nasty.

  • Ya, and wait till the ZR1 comes out retard.

  • And wait till you see the fucking price of the R35

  • 28 mpg highway douche nozzle

  • And no, it isn't a gas guzzler. The ZO6 gets 26mpg highway. That's better gas mileage than the Lancer EVO and WRX STi.

  • nice car

  • IF ONLY I HAD ENOUGH MONEY...

  • This car needs to be DRIVEN on a track. It is awesome....

  • lush vette I know someone who has 5 ferrari's i am NOT kidding. a black enzo and a black scaglietti. she drives them everyday you dick how would you know a ferrari can't be driven everyday. if u don't believe me i can get pictures. her husband is on the u.k rich list. i myself am not rich at all. but i do know alot about cars and i know ferraris are amazing the pure heritage is outstanding. ferrari asked her if she wanted her enzo in black u can't buy them in black ferrari have to offer u 1.

  • mate i dont you belive you and i would like to see you call me a dick in my face. Ill smash you and your drums and tea bag your dad. OW look at me and my freind 6 ferries you ass clown.

  • A ferrie is a collectors car you carnt drive one every day. The engine has to be rebuilt every 30,000miles. The ferrie is in anouther league you carnt compare a rich mans car with a zo6.

  • Learn how to spell before you make any kind of comment when it comes to having knowledge of something.

  • that's not necessarily true.....granted you could drive a Ferrari or Lamborghini every day, but it doesn't mean it's a good "every-day car" like the Corvette....

  • how does it not make it a good everyday car?

    its more comfortable and if you have the money its a much better everyday car

  • wow, someone obviously doesn't own a ferrari. The ferrari is a piece of shit, because it has a 2 year warranty, and oil changes cost 15k. They only last a few thousand miles until you need to replace the clutch, lights, or gauge cluster. GM probably spent 100 times as much money developing the vette than ferrari, the f430.

  • costing more dont mean it cant be a everyday car.

  • Ferrari costs more for a number of reasons, and additional comfort is not one of them. F430 is more comfy, but slower. There is always a compromise somewhere. But mainly, Ferrari is expensive because of two obvious factors: 1) The name and expectation  2) The fact that they are COMPLETELY hand built.

    There you have it. It costs more to pay an individual builder rather than assembly line employees. GM just opted to hand build the motor, rather than the whole vehicle.

  • i totally agree with you
