2022 Corvette C8 Z06: NEW LEAKS (Everything We Know)

[@jimvelie5654]

I believe with this new mid eng technology that has changed everything I am banking that the c8 will hold it value better then any previous corvette

By 2025 I would think Ford does something better than or equal to the vette with their Ford GT and I’m not talking about a 500GT

[@sammyc1234]

Best breakdown ive heard and seen yet. Great work bro

[@positrack99]

Except it looks more like a 2005 Celica GTS than a Ferrari. Now the Ferrari 812 GTO looks like a C7 Corvette.

[@jealva]

I’m a long time Porsche GT3/RS owner and huge Porschephile. The C8 Corvette Z06 is the first Corvette that I feel compelled to own because I absolutely love naturally aspirated engines. Since hearing the V8s in the Corvettes at LeMans in 2019, I’ve wanted to own one. The Porsche RSR flat six engines sounded epic but those V8 Corvettes were the best sounding engines at that race.

[@Bruceillest101]

people who buy the manual version don't care about shift speed. It's about the feeling you get when you drop the clutch and shift gears

[@rudolphguarnacci197]

Yup

[@cranky1812]

Absolutely.

[@remissiveslave]

Same people spend 80% in garage 10% going to store and 10% driving on highway. Most people don't even use the automatic for situations if numbers were the goal, to be faster. Automatic transmission on a corvette is g. A. S. F. Just another fancy boy emotional dildo ornament.

$150,000 "is actually a competitive price." Dude, for a supercar with hybrid technology and 1000hp, that's a STEAL! I, mean, you're talking about a car that will probably be capable record mid 9s 1/4 mile runs.

[@ninja5ever1984]

150, I would rather get a used 2020 porsche 911 turbo. That bad boy is fast and out beat supercars in the 300 price range

[@TheTmat007]

@@ninja5ever1984 Wrong. It doesn't outperform the 720s, which starts under $300k. And it comes nowhere close to the performance of the 765LT. On regular road surfaces, the 992 Turbo S will most likely reach the 1/4 mile distance quicker than the 720s (thanks to its AWD system). We saw it happen during a Carwow drag race. But that does not mean it is faster than the 720s. By the time both cars reach the 1/4 mile, the 720s records speeds well over 140mph. In fact, Road & Track recorded 1/4 mile trap speeds of 148.2mph, when it tested the 720s. The 992 Turbo S gets nowhere close to those speeds, over the 1/4 mile distance. Both the F8 Tributo and 488 Pista are also faster than the Porsche. And even the less powerful 600LT beats the 992 Turbo S in some performance metrics. I think from a 60mph roll race, the 600LT will probably beat the 992 Turbo S.

[@ninja5ever1984]

@@TheTmat007 yes 1/4 I'll put $ on the 911 all day. This car is to of a beast on the 1/4 for the price you can't hate on the 911 its faster than all the 300 + supercars. Go watch the 911 s turbo race them exotic on 1/4 and 60 mph. That 911 is on another level

[@TheTmat007]

@@ninja5ever1984 Well, you will just lose your money, if you bet on the 992 Turbo S against supercars like the 765LT, 720s, F8 Tributo and 488 Pista, at the drag strip. The dragstrip is where official 1/4 mile drag races are conducted.

[@michaelwelsch8262]

Chevrolet is Awesome 👏🏻

[@dlg5485]

I was all about the Z51 because it's such a bargain, but then I read about the Z06 and now that's the one I want. I very much prefer high revving,naturally aspirated dynamics over forced induction. Don't get me wrong, the surge of power and thrust you feel in a supercharged 'Vette is otherworldly, but it cannot match the pure linear feel of a high revving natural engine. This is why the Porsche 911 GT3 has always been one of my favorite cars. It isn't the most powerful or the fastest (although it's plenty fast enough), but the driving experience that kind of powertrain provides can;t be duplicated.

[@timmyboy2495]

It’s amazing what American auto manufacturers can do when they try. All this talk about American cars not being able to compete with their Euro counterparts, but Chevy’s FIRST attempt at mid-engine performance blows them out of the water and it is offered at a fraction of the price. The new corvette also doesn’t come with ridiculous upkeep and maintenance cost the way Euros do. The Zora will do 0-60 in 2 seconds.

[@luisgamez9941]

I'm not a fan of automatics or DC transmissions anyone can hit the gas and go but not just anyone can hit the clutch, switch gears, and hit the gas and go fast. Its the thrill and enjoyment you get when hitting the gears at the right time and going fast.

I wish this Z06 wasn't a floatplane crank. I get they did it to make the really stick it to the exotics. Flat plane is less balanced though which isn't great for longevity.
