2005 Chevy Corvette Review - The FIRST Year Of The C6!

[@anthonykiedis1765]

Zach driving a purpose built RWD car with 400hp: it's fine, I guess. Zach driving a fwd grocery getter with less than 200hp: this is the greatest thing ever!

Facts

[@bwofficial1776]

C6s are great value, even the autos. The interior is cheap but you're paying for the engine and chassis. Corvettes are a sports car that can be daily driven.

[@AmericanBusinessman422]

It's literally a truck engine..

[@martinureno4899]

@@AmericanBusinessman422what trucks came with a ls2?

[@Localtraveler2376]

use engines across multiple platforms. It’s how it’s tuned that matters.

C6 is my favorite generation of the old style. Overall I prefer the C8.

[@crouchb15]

C7

[@damilolaakanni]

C6 and C7 are the best ones for me. Otherwise I'd rather have a 2010 Camaro (I think the new ones are ugly).

[@wigletron2846]

C3 and C5 if only talking about looks

[@godlyghost3111]

the c8 is just an italian clone, no identity to it unlike the previous generations.

[@504S]

C6 IS KING !!

[@doug6191]

Not mentioned about the car... The community. It is so cool to be part of a car club, like Jeeps or Mustangs or H-D bikes, and these cars come with that sort of community.

[@peterabild1123]

I have a 2005 and love it.

[@cheeng1]

No one had cup holders in sports cars in the early 2000’s…they gave corvettes shade for even having it.

[@TheGeorgiaMediaGroup]

Sir. Quit hating. lol. Great car. Fantastic.

[@SCGI-mr3hv]

Hybrid C8 AWD has already been released!

[@gabethebaeb_5881]

Yeah the E-Ray

[@azaz911c]

10:34 A Corvette may be "the peanut butter and jelly of cars". That's fine by me. Just don't overpay for it.

[@NewEdgeDesigns]

Dude it’s 199 degrees and you aren’t using the A/C?? SAVAGE!!

[@damilolaakanni]

It amazes me how GM was able to make a 4 speed automatic transmission work in a car with 400hp...just like how Mercedes-Benz made a 5 speed automatic transmission work with a 600+hp V12.

[@LowBoostFilms]

The E ray is out now for the C8, it’s a hybrid.

[@BurntRAM]

thats like saying supras arent special. those were mass produced too. its an entry tier sports car and thats alright. you still get a lot of value for your money and any base corvette would smoke a challenger and mustang.

[@LowBoostFilms]

Mainstream attention often leads to the death of uniqueness- I will be quoting you with this quote from from now on

[@HomerJ1964]

Good friend has an 05. He bought it new when he was selling Chevys back in the day. I think he may have 5000 miles on it now.

[@igarrett874]

This used to be my dream car until I got into jdm

[@williamcricket7931]

Your older intro with the Mazda was so much cooler.

[@ShootingCars]

Agreed. But KZbin changed their ways and now when you preview a video, it shows the first 10 seconds or so. So every video of mine looked identical and I didn't want to turn people away.

[@williamcricket7931]

Which corvette is best corvette

[@Localtraveler2376]

The average person will never be in a car this fast. You’re getting spoiled off your calling this a cruiser. You basically liked for things to complain about. Poor effort on this one.

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I feel the *exact* same way as you about that car!

[@jaydenheck5299]

horrible take. there are more mustangs and chargers then this car

[@danielb-c9100]

the C6 2005 has a 1-year-old only steering wheel

[@metaljew4456]

Corvette shifters have been stiff and unfriendly, huh? What are you talking about? The manual transmission in my Grand Sport shifts like a dream I would never even consider an automatic transmission Corvette with the exception of the C8. That’s a dual clutch automatic and a completely different animal.

[@mumwifeteacher]

Your description of the trunk could also be used to describe the personality of the average corvette owner.

[@trimbalemrbale575]

4 speed auto? turns and runs away

[@moonshinershonor202]

Don't need but 4 on the floor.

[@Dankcatvacs]

do you think that makes it slow ? the more power especially torque you have the less gears you need . more gears just add complexity

[@mbd501]

I'd definitely go for a later model of the C6, with the 6-speed auto.

[@wildazme2006]

I drove a 2008 and 2005 both automatic back to back and I took the 05 home, felt quicker and more punchy transmission wise.

[@christophersmith1155]

ppl seam to like MIATAS. they are a dime a dozen . I like this American car much more. And many cars from Europe are a BMW "Big Money Waste"

[@Jswag2929]

Seeing the trail blazer wheel would make me just pass

[@josephsou9212]

Your parking brake in on!!!

[@runoflife87]

Well, here you can clearly see the reason of Acura NSX being so popular in the 90's and 00's. Just imagine: this car was produced in 2005 and still couldn't be as fun and as practical as 90's Honda.

[@doug6191]

Put an automatic in that NSX and make the same case for that car.

[@anthonykiedis1765]

This car is a base model and still has 130hp more than an NSX 😂

[@runoflife87]

@@anthonykiedis1765 more HP isn't equal to better handling or even 0-60 numbers.

[@runoflife87]

@@doug6191 automatic NSX is mostly American thing, lol. Europe and Japan got manual cars.

[@doug6191]

@runoflife87 I know. So what. Make the two cars as comparable as possible, and then pretend the NSX is amazing. I'm not arguing that the Corvette is better, but it's hard to ignore that you're putting the best version of the NSX against the lowest version of the Corvette.

[@el_pinguino4087]

can you review a bmw e60 the 3.0 na

[@tedfreakinray]

Same shifter as the camaros too lol

[@odfarmboy]

Video shows you driving with E brake pulled.

That's a good thing. It's easy and cheap to fix.

[@alisherruziev1161]

Was that Mike Mykes Vette? Lol

[@chop2093]

C6 vettes are my least favorite generation. The front end is just ugly

[@markhealey9409]

😍😍

[@bobdoingbobthings]

The corvette should go back to it's roots. make it an affordable roadster - front wheel drive, 4 cylinder, manual transmission. Focus on fun and affordable, like the Miata.

[@mcn1127]

First!!

[@Billn1971]

🙄 Just say you hate the Vette.

[@FlowmasterStang]

Anyone else hate the rear of this car?

[@PhantomX3K]

Naw just you

[@swiderski231]

Bro, it's a 6sp automatic, not a 4sp automatic.. always loved C6 Corvette except for the cheap interior.

[@E.W.C.1993]

The first year of the C6 Corvette (2005) has a 4 speed auto. The years after that (2006-2013) had the six speed auto.

[@positronicreflex.]

Not the 2005 model, it was a 4 speed.

[@racingdreamz8021]

Autos suck

Opinions vary my friend....
