This video is 5 yrs old now, yet I find myself watching and enjoying it like it was filmed just yesterday. In 2015 I dreamt of having one. Flash forward and to my own surprise...I finally have a Z06, w/ the z07 package. Only in America!

That's awesome, you should definitely enjoy that car. I've been wanting one for the last year and when the market comes down a bit more, I plan on picking up a targa top z06 with the 7 speed manual. The c8 is a huge disappointment imo

It's simple, to beat this car, you have to spend $1 million for a McLaren P1, Porsche 918 or the LaFerrari. The Z06 is my favorite car. An american car that offers the same performance and quality as many european exotics at half the price. What is there not to love? Jay is right. Being american does give me a sense of pride. God bless america, and thank you General Motors for producing an EPIC car!

GTR owner here from UK, I must admit I absolutely love the new Corvette, sounds absolutely epic, as others have said you can't beat the sound of an American V8. It would be great if GM would stick the steering wheel on the other side and import them properly through dealers in the UK.
@jeffwill492310 жыл бұрын
The steering wheel has been said for yrs. Problem here GM is pulling out in UK. Some changes would be needed to switch sides. If the demand was great I do think GM would look into it. Because there is some cost in developing, I doubt a switch will be done.

@Son37Lumiere10 жыл бұрын
Problem is most Euro boys are pompous dbags that like to hate on anything American and consider all Euro cars superior so sales of the Corvette is quite low in that region, no reason for GM to waste money retooling their factories to produce them with steering wheels on the other side.
@Johnny64110 жыл бұрын
Son37Lumiere Thought it wouldn't be long before some one had to add a Troll comment. The reason sales are low for the likes of Corvette etc.. in Europe are high import costs and no local support for warranty/parts as GM generally will not import them. Nothing to do with car enthusiasts "hating on America". The Mustang will be sold as a right hand drive for UK and it has been well received so far.
@Son37Lumiere10 жыл бұрын
Johnny641 I watch Top Gear UK, I see them consistently bash America and American cars. I also have met many Europeans who have said as much, that American cars are cheaply made junk, they're cheap because of the bailouts, they will never be a Ferrari blah blah blah. Even with import taxes and VAT, etc. they are generally cheaper than Euro counterparts, this car is still significantly cheaper than Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren etc. Of course there are exceptions but not too many, Norway loves American cars. Having said that, the new C7 and Z06 are too good for most of them to ignore now.

Who would give this video thumbs down? It's Jay Leno in a Z-06?? Common?!
@zwild11606 жыл бұрын
The internet is full of haters and people who have nothing better to do. I like most of the cars Jay features. Even brands I don't own. If it has wheels I generally can finds something to like about it. Whether that be performance or style or just from another time period way before my time. Yeah I could give all other cars other than what I buy or like a thumbs down but hey I think it's small minded. To me would be like walking over to see your neighbor just bought a new car and say, " what a piece of junk hope you didn't spend too much money on it." Haters I say. Snobby angry, jealous types who appreciate nothing in life but spreading some of their gloom.

Interesting point made by Jay, talking about the bailout. Because of what happened, the leaders of the company went from businessmen to engineers. I'm impressed not just because the Vette is an awesome car, but the improvements in industrial engineering that makes them able to mass-produce them at such a good price!

No, it's cheaper because it's not overpriced like the Italian junk that catches fire and is artificially limited in production to keep prices high.
