Jay. Thanks for the video. It’s quite informative for people to consider all aspects before maybe getting over their head. My question is about the cool LED overhead lighting on your garage ceiling. What’s the brand please? Thanks again!

The ram is inline 6

Everything you said sounded pretty reasonable. It’s a high performance weekend car, you have to pay to play.

Is a supercar an investment or a fun means of transportation that gives you value you can't put a price on? If you're in it for just the money, you're in the wrong game.

I got a 2023 fully loaded with 2800k miles for 66k mint z51 and almost every option you can think of from a private one owner, a older gentleman who did take a bath on this for him but if you patient you can find a good deal. He babied the car but just couldn’t get in and out of it well so he just couldn’t drive it much… my insurance only went up 780 for the year but I do have two other cares. Seemed reasonable to me…

When you get your Porsche or Lambo it will be the same thing all over again. That's the price you pay to own cars like this. Maybe keep it a bit longer.

Your genuine thanks I paid cash for my $101 k Anniversary Edition Z51 coupe includes tax and own it out right. Interest from the Chicken stock Market of Joe Biden paid for it thank you sleepy Joe. Also had to buy a New Lexus and a new Mazda Miata due to road debris destroying my two other used cars. Now I’m gonna pay off my $450 k house by next year. I don’t worry about money anymore because of a huge Estate given to me by my dad compliments of sleepy joes and Covid 19

Sorry brother but i tink problem you have is 2 and problem 1 is the way you talking is you just talking about the money and not other factors like you had a fun time with the car and enjoy the almost 1 year and the problem 2 is you are still poor and you need to get up more levels and get more rich and then when you buy your super car you don’t even think about the money you lose because you don’t even tink the way you think now. Wishing you luck

Cars are nothing more than rolling appliances. You have something much more fun than a Corvette....a motorcycle. Steve McQueen said it best..."Driving a car is like watching a movie. Driving a motorcycle is like starring in that movie." BITCOIN is the future.

Hey man! I like your videos. Just my $0.02: When we're 85, we both know that we would rather have gotten the sports car than gotten an extra 15-20 grand!! 😂Don't sweat it. Yeah, you could save that money, but could you really enjoy it as much if you waited another 20 years? Go on any of the corvette forums, and you'll see dudes saying, "I like the car, but I can barely get in and out of it because of my bad knee! I'm going to trade it in for a Corolla." We don't want to work so hard, only to not enjoy the fruits of our labor. Clearly, you're a smart guy and prudent with your money. But as long as your basic needs are met, and you can still save 20% for retirement - spend your money how you like! Some people will buy expensive camera for their photography hobbies, and we buy cars. The car gives us an unforgettable experience though, so it's not just a thing. The point of money is not just to get more of it, but to afford us the things we desire. Can't take it with you when you're dead anyways! Besides, the C8 is cheap compared to Porsches and Lambos 😂Enjoy it brother!

Good points. What bothers me even more is the fact that regardless of mileage. We have to do a transmission fluid change for $1500 or the warranty is void. Look into that. I have the 2024 2LT. But it’s a second car and the insurance (if you shop for Corvette insurance) is very cheap. keep the videos coming😀

Multi inspection is bs, My window fluid was low and when I got home I put half bottle, You figure it out. The looked at the DCT filter and that was it then charged you for flush and ripped you off.

To save you from all the headaches of storing your car , just start your car for 15 minutes once a week then you will have no worries and make sure you open your garage door open for the exhaust to escape out. It is a little inconvenience for 15 minutes once a week but your car will last longer and runs smoothly too. Good luck.

I think i figured it out. Starting in 2024 it looks like the stingray and eray cold start at a maximum of around 1500 rpm. The 2020-2023 stingray and eray would cold start at 2000 rpm. That is the reason for the quieter startup. If you compare some cold start videos on youtube from 2020-2023 to 2024-2025 or newer you can identify which year is the 24 or 25. Keep in mind i only found this information by analyzing a lot of different cold starts from videos where people record their tach from the inside. I sound like a ridiculous crazy person but it seems like im the only one who noticed this. I knew my 2025 sounded quieter at least its just the cold start and shouldnt actually be quieter while driving

this is for posers…..rain snow aside 365 for anything ur proud of…..any heated garage is good and enjoy not do what this geek is chirpin ab……if u live in russia or antarctica i could see some of this worthy tho js

❤❤❤

Just buy vevor jacks or quick jack and raise it air. No need worry about mice 🐁

You’re on the right track! As long as there is still some ventilation space in there, I think it will work fine! For those that drive in the rain, this is perfect. For those that worry about cooling, all other generations had tight sealed hoods so it was never a concern before this!

I live in IN and right before I stop driving my C6 I change my engine oil, and run the Ethanol fuel down to about 1 gal and then fill the car up with non-ethanol fuel and don't need any fuel additives. I don't have a garage so do not use a batter tender, and inflate the tires to their max also. Keep doing the Wave!!

Hi Jay, once again very informative video. May I assume since your doing a video about winterizing that you put yours to bed for the winter. I plan to drive mine on those beautiful sunny winter days assuming road conditions permit, ie no salt.

First of all, I’ve never had a car that I cared about getting dirty enough to use all that extreme cleaning. And you can wash your car without getting the cover above the engine bay soaking wet. Any aluminum engine parts that get wet are going to immediately start to oxidize, so try to avoid any water on the engine.

Naw. It should be driven in winter too.

I would add mice and rodent repellent around the vehicle. They like to eat wires.

GREAT job brother👍first yr ownership of a beautiful C6 I knew these things but you confirmed it for me 👍🇺🇸💪

I prefer to use a couple of good quality king sheets instead of a car cover. Don't like a tight fitting elastic cover on the car for months at a time. No need to store with the weight of a full tank on the suspension. Filling the with a quarter of a tank with ethanol free gas is my choice.

I no longer need to even think about winterizing my C8 given I live in the state of never ending summer!

Good informative Video. Luckily living in Florida there's no winterization here...just nice all year driving...

People who keep the windows up with the roof off are cringe.

big help - im storing my C8 for the first time this winter and your video was very informative. Thanks

Good info thanks!

hey jay have you noticed the 2024-2025 c8 cold starts sound a little quieter than the 2020-2023? i noticed the older models have a much higher pitch growl tone. warm starts are exactly the same. since you been around a lot more c8's than i have at cars shows i was wondering if you noticed this too. i also noticed the 2024-2025 has slightly better mpg so im wondering if they tuned something to make it quieter for that mpg. the first thing that i thought it could have been was the 2022 direct injection change but that did not change the sounds because 2023s still sound really good. recently got my 2025 and im just a little depressed about this.

$400 for this product is ridiculous. Way too overpriced!

Thanks again for another very informative video.

My buddy and I got a 2LT at the same time. 2 months ago. Rapid Blue for me and Cacti green for him. It’s safe to say. They spend more time in than out. He has 155 miles on it. I have 60. We aren’t exactly burning them out 😀.

real good video

Very informative and love the way of ur verbal and nonverbal communication. Keep it up 👍

what color code did you use, thanks

This is valuable information. Thank you!

Not near enough to keep me from buying one, I'm having trouble choosing a color.

yeah a towel works just fine. Cool product though and I'm sure some will enjoy it.

So whats the difference when you get caught in the rain driving your car?

If you were on the bike you could've just kept going! Either way that sucks man!! ;(

Great product, always wondered how you keep the engine bay looking clean in a C8!

Another great review 😮I love 🥰 the way you describe ❤ keep it up

Seems very useful product.Sure I shall try. Thanks Jay for introducing the product in a very explicit manner.

The temptation was too much. I know what it’s like.

Yeah I am going to pass on this😂. So much r&d went into the cooling from engineers… pull the car out cool down and throw a towel underneath

I'll just deal with the engine bay like an engine bay. I live in the Phoenix, AZ area and my concern isn't heat while running, it's how that heat dissipates after it's parked. Good video, as always.

Jay, another great review. Really appreciate your honesty on the diverters. The lights do come in white as well.
