Thumbs up for so many options to choose from!!

[@ryanyoshimura4652]

I built mine as as a 2LT with just the right options......then I closed the browser and went back to my reality of not being able to afford one. I do this every day. 😭

[@Faith-Hope-In-Jesus]

This car is for sure worth ever penny. I can not believe what Chevy has done for such a price. This is truly a super car that an average person can buy. Amazing and I want one!

[@calw8085]

do something so you can afford one. I'm working on getting my and am speaking it into existence for summer 2021.

Same

Hellcat is fun, but im probably going to trade mine in for this.

It's because Corvette finally created an exotic looking car and that is why I'm getting this over the 430 Ferrari.

[@John.Christopher]

lol in what world

[@charlesblount6858]

Thanks again for great video. Taking the time explaining the different options is most appreciated. Also, for those out on a limb, having to make the choice, you explain the emotions, and why the higher level interiors are going to make a impact on you every time you drive the car.

[@rokk144]

Thank you for showing us all this information.

Fantastic Job! Very informative and well worth the time.

[@thehellraisinhellraiser3251]

Great video and very informative! I've been eyeing the 3LT and I think it would definitely be worth it. Just subscribed and looking forward to future content!

Great job and content. Most informative.

Congratulations bro I love my 2020 Corvette stingray spider with 3LT Z-51 package🔥 content coming on the channel With this car

[@jpeck2]

Nice video. I pick up mine at the museum July 28th. After watching this I wish I had ordered a 3LT instead of the 2LT.

[@parhamobriant1970]

Yes, it was worth it!!! I just priced a 2LT and a 3LT with the same options. The difference in price was $3,077 more for the 3LT because some options you pay for on the 2LT are standard on the 3LT.

[@joebanyas3461]

I've had a Bose Acoustic Wave II music system for many years, and it still sounds fabulous. Bose may not be the best audio system around since the death of founder Armand Bose, but the company still makes superb sounding audio products.

[@MrElmeromero2009]

The ten speaker system sound fantastic

[@Beachbumzz1]

👍🏼Video! I ordered 2LT & added lots of options😊

[@jdcinsb1184]

Thanks for the video. Appreciate the time and effort you put into it. May have a bit of a correction for you: I believe Napa leather is available on 2LT trim - which I am getting - as well as 3LT....? (Sorry if I misinterpreted, but it sounded as if you were saying it was only available on 3LT).

[@FullThrottleDrive]

jdcinsb thanks for the comment! I may have mis worded it. I meant to say that with 2LT you don’t automatically get the GT 2 seats which is Napa. You do have to pay to upgrade which you certainly can. With 3LT it comes automatic. But I do see what you mean about sounding confusing!

[@garysaunders8691]

Super well done. Thanks. You forgot to add the trim price points summary at the end. Keep the vids coming. Maybe you could explain the 4 different suspensions next? Would love to know the engineering detailed specifications ( springs, shocks, sway bars, geometry, traction management, etc) to know which one to choose? e.g. FE2 vs FE4?

[@FullThrottleDrive]

I will try to add it thank you!!

[@georgesmith4184]

I would like to see wheel options-I’m big on good looking wheels!

[@EmilyandSimba]

I LOVE THE CORVETTE C8 MY My dads friend pulled up in the corvette C8

[@terryrutherford2114]

My 2011 CTS-V has a 10 speaker Bose, It's Ok, My 2013 Audi S5 has a Bang Olufsen ( I think 10 speaker) which is awesome. I would love to hear the new Bose system in the 2LT C8.. Thanks for the video. I'm all in for a 2LT waiting for the Z06!

[@wombat7366]

Very comprehensive review of options. Lack of the Rearview Mirror Camera in the 1LT even as an extra-cost option is inexcusable with the blind spots this car has. This is a major safety concern and should be standard in all models even if this requires a price bump. I think more people would go for the 1LT if they could get this camera. I agree Universal Remote Control should be standard in 2020 in a $60K+ vehicle. 2LT is expensive upgrade, but lots of goodies. Great value!

[@garysaunders8691]

If the camera mirror came with the 1LT, a lot of folks would buy the 1LT... correct. But that would likely takes sales away from 2LTs, and thus lower rev and margin for Chevy... so not likely to happen for a few model years.

[@lencomberiate9655]

Agree! 100%

[@killerkane1957]

I have a Z51 on the way. I placed the order as a 2LT. Before the order was picked up by GM, I changed it to a 3LT and added the dual roof option. Chaching. It’s only money.

[@desaifaruk]

Very good choice I love it 👍🇨🇦

[@corinadavies3566]

could you do a video explaining in detail the different Targa Top Options for The C8 Corvette and what changes if any The Z06 may have. Especially for first time Corvette Owners. Doing this at a dealership with different Targa Tops may help or verbalizing it on your car.

[@eduardoheide4835]

Are there suspension differencis btwn trim levels? A comfotable smooth ride (not too stiff) is important to me.

[@jofido]

Thank you for this comprehensive review. I appreciate your work and time spent producing it. I live in Tucson and debating if the Z51 is worth getting if I do not track the car. The 2021 can be ordered with magnetic ride now. It the additional cooling, slip differential etc...worth while when the summer heat reaches 115-120 F? My inclination is ro get the upgrade. But at $6000 I am debating if it’s worth it.

[@FullThrottleDrive]

Joe Field it’s a great question and hard to answer... if you never track the car it’s doubtful you would need the extra cooling. You would have to drive really hard on public roads to even get to the point if possible issues. I would say actually high heat like that in stop and go traffic would be your worst scenario. No airflow moving through the car. I have noticed that the hottest temps I see is when the car isn’t moving. Even pushing the car hard but getting good airflow keeps everything in check. But I do have the z51 package.

[@jofido]

Full Throttle Drive thanks very much and explanation based on your experience.

[@JohnConnolly-ye4jl]

I have the exact same Corvette, color and options. Did you put ceramics on the wheels?

[@MTMnet2008]

Nice job! Thanks for the info. If you do NOT have the magnetic ride option, do the standard shocks/suspension still firm up in sport or track mode?

[@johndillingerthe2nd920]

Shocks dont tighten but they are pretty dialed in from factory. Magride is more for your ride to feel less stiff as the metal balls are adjusting to the road every millisecond. The standard shocks are basically in sport at all times

[@msn-hn9eb]

Are the GT1 seats more comfortable for daily driving than the GT2 seats assuming they are both in a 2LT? I'm considering the LT3 but I can't choose GT1 seats and if they are more comfortable that's more important to me.

[@msn-hn9eb]

I sat in both the GT1 seats and the GT2 seats today for a while and I felt the GT1 seats were more comfortable so I'm torn on the 3LT. I'm 5'9 and 175 lbs for reference. Do you feel the GT1 seats are more comfortable than the GT2 seats?

[@johns5876]

I ordered a 3LT without MagRide... I haven’t hit my allocation yet so I could make the change. My build is already at $93k and I need to cut off the spending at some point as I know there’s still PPF and exhaust spending to come later. Do you know if there will there still be a big difference in ride control w/o MagRide? {great channel BTW}

[@FullThrottleDrive]

I totally understand the pricing getting out of hand due to options. I will say in my opinion magnetic ride is worth every penny. If you have never driven one with it, go to the dealer and ask to drive a C7 with magnetic ride and one without it. Helps you understand how amazing the technology is!

Bar-None: Best C8 Trim Level Comparison Video

[@davidwooten4002]

Send a suggestion to GM to upgrade the HTC software to close the top as well as open the top while parked.

[@dcsteve7869]

Here's the thing about Bose speaking as someone who's done live and studio audio for years. For a car, and for the majority of people who either do not have trained ears or are simply older and didn't take the best care of their hearing (most people over 40 can't hear above 15kHz), this is a perfectly fine system and usually designed to bolster frequencies that are commonly lost. This is why audio engineers commonly joke "pinchy highs, muddy lows, nothing in between it must be Bose". If you've been in the recording industry or are a skilled musician used to playback on studio monitors, yes you will notice a quality difference. However I've gotten used to the system in my Cadillac which is very similar to the 14 speaker system in the C8. While I find some things lacking here and there (no multiband EQ), most of the big gaps in response, definition and range are not from the system itself but from the lossy content like streaming audio (pandora, spotify, etc) or digitally compressed audio from Sirius/XM. At CD quality it will take skilled ears to notice the deficiencies in the system and even then you will notice every other noise before then. In other words I would not worry about the quality of this system, it's pretty good.

[@SERGE_Tech]

I just got all season tires omfg wish It was sold to me that way.

[@ymusharfi]

Hey there i like ur vid .. thank u for the infos .. do u know how long recording dose it take ?

You cannot. Now I will bet someone will eventually hack the software to allow it but you cannot do that stock.

[@silentpolarrbear]

Met you at the bp today. Was awesome seeing the car man, it's honestly a thing of beauty. I completely forgot to ask if it was a 3LT or not. I honestly just assumed it was because if you buy a c8 why not go for the top trim. You literally have to. Beautiful car man.

Not comprehensive enough ! You never even mentioned the Lyft option which lt2 allows you to get, nor did you mention lt2 price , just the lt3 compared to the lt1 !!! Finally, is lane keeping assist or adaptive cruse control available on the C8 ?? Thanks

[@terrymichel6104]

Not enough information on prices, and you NEVER mentioned the auto- lift which I think you need 2lt to get ! Also, can you get the red stitching in 2lt ? Finally, I believe the convertible is a must ( it saves the $$ for motor paint) & although I like it I would never pay $600 for painted brake calipers ! Thanks

[@glen8449]

The auto lift is a must for me.

[@notbuyingit8047]

21:35 Napa leather is also the ground up and re-BONDED leather. It is not nappa leather. I would hope GM finally fixed the shrinking and delaminating issues with their Napa leather but in not going to hold my breath. It’s been a problem since the 6th gen corvette. I hope it does not start happening to my 3LT but I have seen many horror stories. Some people have switched out to the mulan leather (by the way is the same cost to replace as the Napa leather) after their replacement Napa leather dash also fell apart.

[@CDX7]

I got my C8 yesterday. 2LT is a requirement due to the rear mirror camera and blind spot monitoring alone imo. Never driven a rear engine car before and the blind spots are insane. I’d be dead scared to merge in traffic without the assistance.

[@YAHNewsNetwork]

Non-sense .. USE properly set side mirrors and its perfectly safe.. I am a 1LT owner ..

[@ostentatioussavant6975]

Hmmm, I drive a Porsche and never had an issue with blind spots. Just drive faster than everyone else and you'll be fine.

[@SteveTheFazeman]

Steering wheel looks aircraft control wheel inspired.

[@johnnyivan1977]

They are all 100k up now

[@leo-ub6nb]

I know I'm 9 months late, but you said if you use Apple Carplay or Android Auto, that your phone will be plugged in, so no point in the wireless charger. On Chevy's website, for the C8, it states that it uses *wireless* Apple Carplay and Android Auto. So you should *not* have to plug in your phone to use those 2 features, hence why the wireless charger is in the rear, besides not enough space for it up front. I'm just a bit of a tech nerd so it just stuck out to me 😂

[@USMCSSgtRetired]

Wireless CarPlay was added for 2021. 2020 has a wireless charger only and requires you to plug in your device for CarPlay.

Are all Z51 packages 3LT's?

[@MrRiverGrove]

@Black Moses ok

[@sierra283blue5]

With these unfortunate emissions from the government pushing almost 40mpg I finally said screw it and built my hypersonic gray 3LT Z51 loaded for MSRP and the upgraded black trident rims. Because who knows if the government will literally start taxing the hell out of V8’s. I’m buying it to drive it on road trips etc. no sitting in a garage. Wanted the ZO6 until I found out it was going to be marked up 60K so close to 200K and possibly 2 year wait. Got to say I love your spec corvette with the 3LT Z51 and the premium 14 Bose speakers is amazing compared to my loaded 18 Jaguar F-Pace S.

[@kpv123]

Good comparison. 3 Lt is a waste of money. 2Lt is almost necessary because of the mirror camera and safety features.

[@SERGE_Tech]

SUBSCRIBER QUESTION: I have a base model c7 and I want to trade it in and get a c8, most likely i can only afford a base model, is it worth it whats really different am I really missing anything. based on what I remember on the c7 that i test drove i should of gotten the z51 I really bite my self for that one. I wanna make my c7 purchase with better confidence.

[@FullThrottleDrive]

The base model is still absolutely incredible. You will see a huge difference over the C7 generation. IMO the base C8 is the best value. Sure I think the magnetic ride suspension and a few option you get with 2LT package is amazing but you wont go wrong with the base, especially the price (give you don't pay over sticker).

[@steverector6850]

I've got a C8 I didn't want any of that extra stuff

[@sonicspreed12]

Does the 1lt have remote start? Please say yes.

[@Hokagebam]

We probably won't see low price 2020 till we get the zo6 2022.. 2020 will probably be considered the rare "covid" corvette.

[@MRkriegs]

Prices still have not went down at all for used vehicles

[@derpybellicgaming_yt658]

The 3lt lowers the hp to 490 while the 2lt has the 495 hp so is recommend to get the 2lt if you want the 3lt try at your risk

The 5 extra HP you’re referring to comes from the Z51 package (NPP Exhaust).

Lol i cant find that car for 60k cheapest 1lt is 80k boise idaho

[@mikemccormick8115]

C8 is a great value until you load it up with fluffy options. That’s where GM is making their money and how you lose money on resale. My 2021 1LT Lakehart blue C8 is coming with modest options which tops out at $65k. I’m interested in the enthusiast aspect of the car, ie., DRIVING it. Multi colored, carbon fiber, wheels, unnecessary electronics, insignificant Z51, plastic add ons (car is more aesthetic with no spoiler, like a Ferrari), and on and on, all fluff, why? I can afford paying $100k for a $60k car but don’t want to.

[@timsundles7108]

Since the car is soooo driver centric can you even break the car in with your girl? ;)
