  • Cyber grey

  • Chromies .lol

  • Can anybody tell me what color this Vette is please? Thank you for your help.

  • i personally love soft seats, if i were to get a vette i would never get a base model

  • Get a life trolls :)

  • slalom

  • I love the Corvette seats.  I get tired of commentator always talking about how soft the seats are. They're great, not everyone wants to sit on cement seats all day. We live and drive in the real world.

  • @broloda

    TOTALLY AGREE ..

  • @broloda Me 2, they keep you upright and planted while feeling very comftorable

  • Corvette's always had that beautiful body.

  • Front plates are state by state deal. Texas has it but not Oklahoma & Arkansas. Others I don't know

  • could this vette beat at least a ferrari 360?

  • Plate on the back but not the front - is that a State or City thing over your side? Here in UK we have to plate the front too which not good on this - nor Alfas.

    Sight and Sound! Never mind the interior, you can't have such a low price for a performance car and then moan about the inside. Name another of its type that you can you every day.

  • A Skoda FABIA VRS would kick the rednecks butt into next week...usa fast food YES

    Fast cars epic fail.....................

  • Vette's are cool but there still American, and every American car I ever own was total junk !

  • @joust671 .... You cant compare your 1993 caprice to a c6 corvette man. Thats just not fair. Every brand has their own shit cars. Bar none, sans exotics. I can name off a few POS imports I've owned, but doesnt mean imports suck... Grade the car by itself, not where its made from dude.

  • @JgHaverty Can you tell me what POS imports you had were bad ? Never had a Caprice like you had, but it is fair to say the 80's GM Ford were the biggest piece of junk cars ever on the road.

  • @joust671 Mitsubishi Eclipse, Mitsubishi 3000gt, both blew up on me. I drive a g35, love it. Im not biased. Thats my point, each company has their own  hunk of shits. I had an old SHO that I loved to pieces.

  • @JgHaverty Can you tell me one good american car in the 80's ? The Mitsubishi cars did have problems no doubt.

  • @joust671 corvettes arnt like any other american car

  • @tuugfo I test drove once a Porsche 944 turbo and Vette both of the same year from the 80's and there was no comparison. The Vette had vibrations all over and the communication was not there unlike the 944. The 944 felt like it was hand made were the Vette felt like a kit car. The 944 felt like a drivers car were the Vette felt clumsy and unbalanced. The Vette has a fiberglass body "big deal".The Vette did have that big motor, but to many other shortcoming's make the Vette not that appealing.

  • @joust671

    "from the 80's" --- There's your problem.

  • @jayls5 80's were horrible

  • @joust671 Have you ever owned a vette? I didn't think so..

  • Comment removed

  • @joust671 I find humor in your response. The problem is when you say "My mechanic". You obviously have no business owning a vette or any performance car. Your words would mean more if you were a gear head which you are not. I hope your mechanic never over charges you to replace a muffler bearing. As you said, he has no reason to lie. LOL

  • @tekcraft What, what kind of rubbish is that. I have to be a gearhead to own a Vette. Here's a guy that worked on Japanesse, Euro and American car's all his life. His opinion is a honest one. When you drive a Porsche then a Vette there's no comparison. When you drive a BMW and Vette there's no comparison. Get your head out of American car's there's way better car's out there. Vette's are good in your opinion but until you drive a euro or high end Japanesse car there's no comparison !

  • @joust671 You just proved again you don't express your own opinion. You're regurgitating your mechanics opinion. Forget trying to sell people on your mechanic. We don't care about his opinion. If your mechanic told you to drive off a cliff to increase airspeed you would probably do it. All you have to offer us is hearsay...shame on you. Go learn something new. It's obvious cars are not your forte. Cheers.

  • @tekcraft Your a complete idiot. Here's a mechanic who worked on thousand's of car's he's not a shade tree mechanic like you are. He knows the inner working's of a Vette from bumper to bumper. "all Vette yrs" I also already said people who I know that owned a Vette. Complaint's were from a "shake rattle and roll interior, a too heavy front end, crappy electronic's that are overpriced when need in repair, not a everyday driving car, should I keep going on. I think it's u who doesn't know jack !

  • @joust67 Your opinion is biased and unfounded. Stop wasting bandwidth, do us all a favor and floor your precious BMW into the thickest wall you can find.

  • Pretty sure the Corvette shown in the video doesn't "sticker" under $50,000 with the Navigation satellite radio, chrome wheels, and dual mode exhaust packages all installed but the point is made - Corvettes are still the world's best performance bargain in the segment - bar none.

  • Edmunds just doent like vettes. Stick with the heavy and slow ford mustangs Edmunds.

  • can someone explain to me what w/ rollout means?

  • The 350z is faster.

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH lol.

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH Yeah right. do you know that inside lines drivers suck? They got a Corvette Zr1 to do 0-60 in 4.0 seconds when it does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds.

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH 350z doesnt do 0-60 in 4.3 like the vette, more like under 6 seconds....i hope your joking around

  • @sergsrt8

    You took me serious?? Go play in the street.

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH its too dark out to play in the street, maybe after school tomorrow i will

  • @sergsrt8

    Make sure you ge hit by a 'Vette!!!!

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH i broke my leg

  • @sergsrt8

    Dammit, it didn't kill you.

  • @TRUDOWNSOUTH nope...HAHA

  • the stock goodyears suck compared to the michelin pilot sport tires, probably why slalom wasn't that great

  • You guys want the interior to have goat made leather seats with a nude prostitute in your back seat

  • 47k, The class this car is in is amazing and for what it offers!!!

    It competer with mustangs,camaros,370zs, and other cars similair to that class. Amazing, not fair, but amazing.

    Then they have the z06, and the ZR1.....

  • Ohmaigod. It's my new dream car! I'd just get a used one (preferably '06). If not, my second option is an '05 Z -_-

  • You guys are killing me. I can't wait to buy one. It is coming soon.

  • avg 27.5 highway '07 C6....amazing.

  • @Mrabbytab3 is it a manual?

  • @Porsche1080 automatic.......

  • no complaints on my '07 LeMans Blue baybee!! stored 4 winter now :(

  • Stop whining about the interior. It has a steering wheel, pedals, seats, gauges, and door handles. It doesn't need exotic goat skin to do its job.

  • @straightedge442 I know right. I hate when people complain about the interior. It has air conditioning,Radio,cup holders and other stuff. It has leather seats! At least it has stuff that you want in a car.

  • these things look pussy compared to a z06.Check out my video called clean tre flip thats how a vete should look

  • I like the interior..

  • just under 50,000 what a deal not!

  • bla bla bla inside line 

  • سياره جباره

  • wow interior is so crappy

  • @jayhova yea but if u think its shitty u should see the vipers

  • im kind of a noob when it comes to cars. what does it mean "with rollout"?

  • @MarkyMarkEckstein

    You let the car roll to between 5-10mph than wide open throttle that bitch.

    Easier with automatic.

  • @TrowVr01 haha, i loved that explanation

  • the gs is a better performance deal- $5000 more but you get 1.06g in the skipad.

  • Performance for the money that nothing else can match and they look just angry from any angle. Why do they sell so many of these? Oh yeah that's why.

  • the vette zr1 3zr is by far my fave car

  • The corvette drives like a much heavier car than it actually is.

    Interesting that the heavier Mustang with a striaght rear axle is

    quicker through the cones. I always felt the handling on the car

    was weak.

    Owner of 2008 6sp vette.

  • @uboobtube2 Yah and the new 2010 ZR1 dissapoints me too :( but man i wish they would test the 800hp ZR1 Lingenfelter lol that thing sits low to the ground and has some BEAST power and AWSOME handling..

    Owner of a 2009 Corvette ZR1 Lingenfelter

  • " The interior is a bit of a let-down" Who cares?? I'm reminded of what Bugatti said when a customer complained about the brakes; "M'sieur, I make my cars to go, not to stop."

  • Believe it or not ? had the Malibu 5 years , ( Don't Laugh ) no rattles , same battery , light bulbs , runs good , surprised by a 4 with the weight of the car ,

  • A good idea from the SBC a longer rod than the Porsche , less rod angle , higher rpms ...

  • All right when I first came in here showing respect , I was assaulted by the import guys and retaliated , I apologize , I am the guy who will not judge you by what you drive ... Really .. I don't care how much money you got , and I am not playing that bullshit anymore ... It seemed that we liked inciting arguments instead of talking nuts and bolts ... can't we all just get along ???

  • I am a Porsche guy, but this is a bargain. Good job vette

  • @TheSimini

    I had a love affair with the type 4 , and had a balance tube pinch valve idea when running a blow through turbo through webers , I call it scream fast ...

  • Funny thing is you can add a cam, tune and slicks and you now have a 10 second daily driveable car.

  • Dear GM - Interior. Fix it.  Thanks. -a potential Corvette owner

  • them cars are so HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hate that ugly plastic chin underneath on the front.

  • @bsg1206 ya I hate the all around plastic too. I think that a Chevy Cobalt has higher quality materials than the Corvette :P.

  • These kids in their Civics pulling up to the light ( With their retard music blowing away their cheap ass car at the seams  ) , thinking that they are bad , LOL , Cough , If I wanted to hear your crap ? I would buy it , but I like real music .... just to say " See Ya "

  • You GTR Boys ? Get used to Penis ? That is what you want . OK Bitch ? I prefer female , but thanks anyways ...

  • Always remember ? he who holds nothing ? Has nothing , Confucious say ....

  • You know what is funny ? Is this pee wee with his little wick , cries alone .... LMAO

  • Try about a distance of 10 miles when race is done , boy are you easy kid ....

  • Yup Smoke a GTR ...

  • put better tires on it. goodyears are trash

  • only 3MPH slower in the slalom than a GT-r not bad for 30 grand less

  • dope ride:)

  • dope ride:)

  • Or do we need pictures ?? here is an alternate number , in case you can't get through ???

    1 800 EAT SHIT ...

  • Call 1800 YOU BITE ME , Corvette ??

  • the ls3 is a beast i cant wait till i pop the question and ask if i can buy a corvette

  • Best proper sports car money can buy these days. I'm 23 and soon to be 24 in the summer and for 10 long years have I loved these cars... I'll make sure my dream comes true this year :] Corvette Power!!

  • this is my all time fav car along with the pagini zonda they are both great

  • Good Review, Good Car and better than comparing a V6 to a V8.

  • scribd (dot) com/nb812

  • I own a 05 vette with the ls2, which has more than enough power. never been beatin not sayin that i wont but ive raced alot of cars with alot more hp such as the mustang gt500, saleen. and some type of supercharged jag which actually was a good race. but to finish what i was sayin i would love to have a gs or 2010 corvette coupe =)

  • I bought an 08 with the auto, the trans was a bit of a disapointment for me but the ls3 wasn't a disapointment at all.

    So I fixed that and got an 10GS vert with the standard now I am happy

  • @ballucanb1 The trans was a disappointment? You opted for the automatic in a sports car. That's disappointing.

  • corvette rule

  • Corvette is crap.

    Everyone knows it.

  • @subversyv you say that because you are a dumbass who doesn't understand american cars FUCKING TROLL

  • Wow. What kind of an incredible dope are u? U Fave a TopGear video which compares the suspension of the Vette to "a medieval, horse-drawn cart" .. and YOU call ME a troll? lol .. U're more of a joke than the Vette u drip precum about. You come from Venezuela which has ZERO supercars and you think "George W. Stig" is a real person .. HAHAHAHAHA!

  • I own a 3LT Cyber gray vette like the one in the video as well, i've had it a year now and I still love it, even better than my 07' and my fathers Z06. with just an intake, it has now dynoed at 407 hp at the wheel!

  • yes i've heard the LS3 has a lot of potential

  • @Rockit181 nelson racing engines makes an ls3 with 2500Hp.and 2000ft.Lbs. Tq. for 52,000 dollars

  • i love my base 2LT vette, cyber gray just like the once pictured. Best car i have ever owned. The LS3 is awesome.

  • WELL SON ? and you drive a Civic ??? oh fuck ...

  • as my freinds say i make your paycheck in a day

  • hey, thats cool if its true. if it is, would u mind telling us what it is u do? i, for one, am looking for a new job.

  • Have had a new 2009 for 5 weeks now and got a good deal from the dealer - 3800 off sticker. After 1270 miles it has no rattles or squeaks and I love the performance, This car is my everyday driver and I couldn't be happier with it!

  • @SeanFTP1 are the seats comfortable? just asking.

  • @SeanFTP1 24ish miles per gallon who wouldnt daily drive it :D

  • @SeanFTP1 i am in the market for a vette... r u still happy with yours? rattles? squeeks?

  • @Alshaytan666 Not a trace.

  • @SeanFTP1

    My uncle has an 02' Z06 and it still doesn't have any rattles to this day. Once the rails were hydroformed the rattles were no more :)

    The C6 was improved very little in that area b/c it didn't need it. I love my C6... Not one squeak or rattle here either.

  • that was the cheap base model one. they should have tested the ZR1. none the less a stunning, and ballsy beast from the bow tie :] I love chevy

  • Can you say "bang for the buck" I thought you can. Except for the Mustangs fans who will undoubtedly trash this thread with garbage comments. Or maybe they'll be civil.

  • Awesome car for the money and nothing can touch it's performances at 50K. I am saving to buy one so I can add a cam, exhaust, CAi and tune to make 450+ rwhp.

  • @Marc99GT just add procharger

  • @sirlonghair Good point. I have seen a few dyno 560-600 rwhp with less than 10 psi. Monsters still on pump gas and getting good mpg. I want one very badly.

  • Slalom speed is irrelevant, Mustang GT .5mph faster, put them both on a race track, then we'll see which one is faster. We're talking about a car than can go around a track quicker than any BMW, Audi, Caymans, 911's, Dodge SRT10, and they mention a Mustang GT...??? . . Hahaha, is that a joke Edmunds?? Get real.

  • Are you joking, Flabernat? You're putting how much into a Mustang to beat a Vette, and not just straight, but real corners? You might as well just start with a stock Vette and mod the F out of it to beat the Exotics.

  • the ZR1 already beat the exotics.

  • i would so buy on of these cars if only i had the means :D i'm german and we have a lot of great sports cars but it wouldn't take me long to decide which car to get if likei said i had the means to buy one, the overall package that vettes deliver for their price is simply amazing and unheard of among any competitor in this type of class.

  • oh no not half a mph! ...

  • "every other car with the same performance credentials is significantly more expensive"

    what about the m3?

  • omg the m3 cant compete with this lol and btw people who dont like vettes are just jelous i guess i mean whats not to love about this car? its fast costs less than its compitation and handles great

  • m3 can't compete with this car? are you insane? what about on top gear when the 4 door version went around a full 1.6 seconds quicker on the track?

  • m3 can't compette with vette zr1 .......because m3 haz 300 hp and vette 636!!

  • 638 hp

  • Um, the new M3 has over 400 hp and still the base vette beats it 0-60 and in the 1/4.

  • not exactly. the e92 m3 coupe has got 4.1 0-60 and 12.7 in the 1/4.

  • @cuzimill786 That is not fast enough. It is well short on the 1/4. If we arew using best times, the base has been 11.70s, but most run 12.20s. That was also at 117-119 mph. That was pre-2010 which now has launch control.

  • I have owned 6 vettes 78,96,99,07,08, and 08 zo6 love them all the 08 m6 base model ran a 12.28 at 119mph bone stock and cost $42000 and got 31mpg at 80mph my 07 a6 1lt cost $40000 I put 70000 miles on it sold it for $34000 my 96 bought it with 74000 miles on it sold it to a friend now it has 165000 miles on it

    with only a new battery or two corvettes

    are the best car ever made a 63 split window coupe sold a auction for $625000

    and cost $ 5000 new name me another

    car that does that!!!!!

  • '73 Citreon DS23 $440,500 less than $1000 new.

  • the vette will be a timeless classic as the american car that kicked the eurpure ass up and down nurburg and Le Mans

  • lol You mean Ford GT pal

  • all i got to say is ZR1

  • woo hoo ur a zr1 fan too yay zr1 is my favorite car

  • if they want to brag about the peice of shit mustangs slolumm take they should take the two cars around a track and see who wins :) lol i love how they try to make ford sound like they even have a chance against this beast in a gt500. the gt500's slolum time is directly linked to its stiff as suspension that rides like an army tank take both the gt500 and the ls3 to the nurburgring and see who makes it around first!

  • Cool!

  • why are we talking about mustangs on a corvette vedio?

  • because there was a 1 second blurb mentioning a Mustang GT in this video. And the Mustang fans have a hopeless dream that one day a Mustang could be a real sports car.

  • The only car I'd buy from GM. And who gives a shit about interior? I would track the fuck out of that car(with Z51 option of course) and it would love it. All Corvettes do.

  • LOL @ dre5491. Reliable my ass. the new Vette's have the worst electrical gremlins out of any Vette to date. From charging systems, ignitions, gauge clusters to the stupid electric exterior door handles. It's not the I like one car or another. My issue is when are people gonna realise no motter what it is it's going to have issues at some point.

  • I guess I'm lucky then... My 2007 has 49,000 miles without one single issue. Also, I've been modded for over 20k miles too. My Uncle has a 2005 C6 with over 90k miles without any problems either... He's an outside salesman & drives it cross country. I would have thought his 05' being the first year & his current mileage would be loaded with problems but nope. We both race our vette's too, so it's not like we baby them. Maybe other's haven't been so lucky but, we couldn't be happier :)

  • The best sports car that money can buy.

  • haha looks tough i wanna see it crash it will become a mini cooper

  • the best american car, and one of the best of the world.

  • saleen s7 tt competition model ... B-) thats just me tho.

  • the ls3 is an absolute beast!!!!! slap a mild cam and basic intake and exhaust bolt ons and you got a car running mid to low 11's!!!

  • These guys can not drive!

  • its still my dreamcar.

  • @TheMegaVette mine too dude! ill have mine in 1month!

    

  • @TheMegaVette Mine too

  • Infiniti G over Vettes? Lol Fail. So you'd rather have a high maintenance car that has lots and lots of issues with them over something thats proven to be faster and more reliable!?

  • So his only negative comment was "the interior". Who cares? I don't. Who expects GM to make some kind of kick ass interior? I don't.

  • service isn't that expensive either.

  • GM makes 50+ different kind of cars, and this is the only one that I would even look at. sad well the new Camaro too.

  • one of few great American super cars.. love it deeply..

  • Algore doesn't like burning rubber.

  • Corvette>Shelby GT 500

  • Why did they test an automatic?

    wtf edmunds.

  • woops, I was wrong.

    I saw them hotbraking in the beginning, and thought it was an auto.

    Let up on the interior! Chevy obviously markets the car as a performance bargain, not a luxury bargain!

    Super performance and super luxury would cost more.

  • you will never touch a GT500 for less than 65K, I promise you.

    and the mustang with the track package still sucks. it got it balls kicked in by the 370Z.

    the gensis is a bullshit car with performance 7 years behind everyone else out there and not one I would use an example.

  • "all to familiar steering wheel"

    like a driver really cares, or owns one of the whole Chevy lineup to recognize it

  • gt500 is over 90 grand and cannot touch the vette

  • Gt500 is 45 grand

  • UNDER 50 GRAND???? is he serious?? i live in belgium and a basic vette costs about 70.000 euros here, which is about 100.000 dollars, which is double of what americans have to pay for it for exactly the same car!!! that's legal robbery...

  • 370Z is one of the uglyest cars out there!!!

  • but the interior is class one of the best ive seen

  • BAH. it certianly looks better than a vette and easily much better looking than a mustang...mustangs look like a box on wheels.

    the 370Z IN PERSON is a great car. I was not sure of the looks till I saw one at the car show and loved it. see one in person then bitch if you want but i doubt you will still want to...unless of couse you are a domestic fanboy
