2011 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Convertible Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

[@DEMediaDrive]

Keep up the great work my friend...watched this during my lunch break at work.

[@apmaquina]

man, you are probably the most professional channel on youtube, honestly you make car and driver stuff look like its made by fred.

[@telj1]

I dig how the tail note changes up once that vac kicks in.

[@Ghazzoul]

correction, this doesnt have a overhead cam. it has a single cam in the middle of the block with pushrods

[@vortec3204]

I appreciate Kyle's videos. For example with the Corvette I would never have noticed that the current generation has a dual-mode exhaust system. He showed that to us several videos ago. Great attention to detail and good videos with good variety. Keep up the good work.

[@k9keo]

Once again I love how the gauges flip forward when you start the car. = )

[@matheus71998]

[@squeakD]

Ahhhh..., that good old sound of a an American 8-Baller! Beautiful exhaust note on this car!

[@padistedor]

I bought my 2011 GS with 6900 miles on it earlier this year. Got a great deal on it. It's a great car.

[@Alan10018]

That Corvette is GREAT!!! :D

[@XspetNAZ]

[@jammer96]

Mean ass ride there!

[@robinleckey]

i would love this car

[@robinleckey]

+michael barkley nice, so lucky haha, what color?

[@JamesWoodTN]

Particularly liked how the screen on dash rotated

[@MegaMC777]

I've driven one of these last February. It was my cousin's friend who worked at GM as an electrical engineer and had it as a company car. I had fun, great handling I think and I was able to slide the back out on the highway. :P Only thing I didn't like was it felt it was dragging a bit when I step on it. Not sure b/c it was an auto or just had a lot of torque.

[@slapshot121212]

Base price for the GS convertible was around $56k when new. I bought mine a few months ago for way less than that. I have the same car (blk/blk/blk).

[@vbav7]

@saabkyle04 love your reviews in depth and very long love it!

[@TheBigNeil75]

Kyle, do you think I would fit in one of those? I'm 6'6" Great videos!

[@dubboy9001]

such a beautiful sound..... i know its not important but i really enjoy the key design on this car. kinda random... but i do

[@Blopdomia]

Hey kyle could you try to find and show a Ram 1500 Outdoorsman?

[@travyyyful]

How's the soft top? Does it squeak?

[@sandghostQC]

kyle were waiting the ford focus ST 2013!!!

[@bergnworld]

your videos are great and improving with everyone you post . but i think i speak for myself and others if possible you should incorporate a little test drive maybe like a 45seconds to a min thanks man

[@BalkanBuilds]

we have a magna flow exhaust on this and is LOVE IN A TUB

[@giorgiaznauri]

wow nise car

[@patatasete]

It would be awesome if you put in the description the time when you rev it :)

[@montejose123]

im getting one for christmas(:

[@vbav7]

@saabkyle04 how do you get taakes over the top of the cars like the bigger ones you do?

[@cerrystyle]

@mastertweeker I get ur point and want to respect ur opinions and answer.

[@rogerb1108]

did you see the shifting pedals? are they both + ?

[@FaaizAliTV]

@collin homptin how do u know the C7 is coming put the fall because that's my favorite car and I really want to but it but how did u know its coming out this fall???

[@ca13814]

@saabkyle04 So the Grand Sport is basically a regular Corvette with ZO6 bumbers and apperance with a little bit of ZR1 in the suspension and ride?

[@bleachman9000]

yes, depending what model you get, Z06's can get optional Carbon Fiber whilst ZR1's get it standard.

[@tssracing14]

can you do that gray silverado by the sign inthe beginning of the video

[@chorstma44]

SHODSKULIPT is an ignorant troll just ignore it. Great video man always look forward to more!

[@contrabandest]

@onefastz93 but it has the paddle shifters

[@GarrettPohlman]

kyle, I know you don't want to say the price the dealer is selling it for but can you list the msrp or the kbb value?

[@TheSaikou96]

We are almost in 2012 and it still has a plastic lock for the convertible??

[@NerfYashru]

Please do a review of the 2013 Corvette 427

[@bigtaker5]

pink floyd time dark side of the moon 10:00

Great video. When the time comes to replace those mufflers, they must cost plenty.

[@cansavaryego7193]

Can you review the new Corvette C7 Stingray?

[@XspetNAZ]

is there a zr1 soft top?

[@palman18]

we always have to remember that Chevrolet is making cars that are worthy of being called competitors to the Italian sports cars.

[@pz2243]

Why do both the paddles have a + sign ?

[@alipontiac]

Kyle over head valve, not over head cam, thanx for the video i like it.

[@turtleownage]

I promised myself this will be my next car, I can't wait.

[@ethyrice]

Was it?

[@mastertweeker]

@cerrystyle ....just the details that are lacking. You see what I mean? Why does the Vette has to have a partially manual roof and the SLS is fully electrical? and so on...

[@caldon03]

Pretty well done and thanks. However, you used the term "tonneau cover" incorrectly twice when putting the soft top down and describing the molding behind the seats. Also you did not mention the manual transmission gets you the dry sump oil system that the automatic does not come with.

[@slyguyaction]

Is that rust on the brake rotors? Still want one. Make mine a black Z06... Sly

[@PATjA15]

@17poio yeah it was filmed a while ago, but lately here in north carolina its been around 70 degrees....kinda annoying.

[@Oxyquatzal7]

Did you film this recently or is it just warm all the time down there? I ask because I noticed you were wearing shorts.

[@endofmankind]

What is the name of the song? So I can play it in my new vette too. Cool vdo!!!

[@pikachu2537208]

Kyle so this car does require the key for ignition

[@JoshJW11]

I love this car, GM just really needs to put their next generation navigation system in this! The same one that can be found in other new Chevy's the Cruze, the Volt etc.

[@adasdqweqw]

When will you upload Aston Martin Virage Volante?

[@Perfect5Recurve]

@kickinthebase I did the math. According to the XE currency converter site, if you were buying this particular model which costs $59,525 US, it works out to 330,329.59 Danish Krone.

[@2010challengerRT]

Hey Kyle, are you sure that's a SOHC V8? I could be wrong but i thought they were pushrod OHV engines. Either way I love your videos,i'm a big fan!

[@TheEddy1122]

What pink floyd song is this?

[@Perfect5Recurve]

@kickinthebase anywhere from $49,525 for the base 2012 coupé to $111,525 for the ZR1. The Grand Sport Convertible as seen here has a retail price of $59,525.

[@englandish43]

@LordKevin92 Actually it would hurt more because the safety systems employed in your typical German saloon are a grade above those used in Chevys.

[@Happy2SprayU]

Love corvettes but I have to have a manual. I feel a greater sense of accomplishment driving without aids, regardless of if I am slower than an auto.

[@Sloimer]

oh yes

[@krocialblack]

@saabkyle04 Got a video of that beautiful C5 at 11:31?

[@Buttnut105]

Yeah, I got it.

[@archechme]

Indeed, regressing!

[@XxtrickshotxX100]

wow real mature. dont be jealous

[@craigt5906]

Put a set of Black ZR1 19/20 wheels&tires red hashmark and red calipers and this car is PERFECT

[@ilovecars1996]

the corvette, as many have noted, still is behind a bit technology wise but in general its an amazing car

[@TheMcooper17]

Had a ride in one. Trade plates flew off the dash and I got the corner to my bollocks

[@69dodgechargerrt1]

The grand sport is my favorite late model vette... right after the zr1 lol.

[@TheStefanBrankovic]

I dream of a day when Chevrolet will make car that doesn't only drive great, but look cool and modern as competition's cars like 458 or LP- 560

[@jeepguy95]

No chimes?

[@17poio]

It's 96F on a december day???

[@lesher27]

Can you get your hands on a C43 Amg? Or maybe a full tour of a new c63? I know you looked at one but it really wasn't really a review

[@45barber1]

Test drive 2011/2012 charger r/t please

[@GriffXJ]

Wow, that convertible top is so jerky and loud (nothing like the smooth and quiet foreign convertible tops)

[@TheVoid47]

we all need to help and refer him to all your friends

[@halflife103]

@Hajeeba nuh uh!

[@Dango-God]

Two shift up paddles? Im confused.

[@thatBMWkid]

Is that really a typo in the heads-up display? "Check Gages." It should be "Check Gauges."

[@ThePickle85]

@VVaIrus damn right.

[@dfair101]

Does anyone know the exact dimensions of the boot? (Trunk)

[@DaRhino19]

For 50k u just can't beat a vette! Could you do a Centennial Edition? That would be awesome.

[@Corkoth55]

@kmann1994 i certainly wouldn't say '90s buut.. it has looked quite the same for the 2000s

[@WesleySnipesHanson]

@pitlock96 They don't make either. I think your thinking of the Dodge Viper SRT10

[@cerrystyle]

@ca13814 ... But don't forget the engine! that's a LS3! GS is just a model with a mix of Z06 features and ZR1 components...

[@MrTONYTONYM]

What's gonna happen if u don't lock the convertible top? Btw is the car made of plastic?

[@vettedude418]

when you get those vaccum flaps open you gotta nail it! dont just let them close right back up
