@jkliao6486 Imo the ZR1 will be faster on the straights of the track, but the Z06 will faster in the corners. Also the ZR1 will be heavier, and that will be a disadvantage. It will depend on which track they are on as some have more straights where the ZR1 will most likely be faster. However on tracks with more turns the Z06 should be faster.

I guess thats really subjective, because to me it feels very different. Really, really cluttered and thrown together, worse than most other cars in that price range. The middle screen looks like an afterthought and some of the buttons are really random in their placement. For me personally it looks a bit old already. But there is nothing wrong with disagreement, its basically just an opinion, no real "truth"! (I also like when the middle screens are more accessible to the passengers, but thats really just personal preference, i get why they do that "cockpit" design for the driver.)

I love the Z06 and this car seems much better than I thought it would. Unfortunately that 106K base price is a little misleading. I was at a dealership last week that happened to have a Z06 on the lot. The sticker was $178k!!! (USD) I could actually stomach a car at 110k - but 180 is ridiculous. And I'm glad you guys mentioned the narrow seats - I'm not fat but I am not comfortable in a C8, the seats absolutely suck - that is THE deal killer for me - for any C8. I sold my C7 Z06 last year and am in the market again, but it looks like my next performance car will be a ZL1.

I've always wanted a C8, and this is the perfect one for me. It's got a lot of the exterior upgrades from the Z06, so it looks better than the Stingray; and the AWD and electrification adds layers of performance and functionality that no Corvette has ever had. So on paper it's arguably better than the Z06, and for me it's the top of the line C8 for now until the Zora/ZR1 comes out (which may be upwards of $200K). It's certainly a lot pricier than I expected or wanted, so until I'm more "affluent" I suppose I'll just continue to enjoy these cars through your channel.

With the 495 stock + the 170hp from the procharger kit + the 155 hp from the electric motor you would have a combined output of 820hp. Almost like a budget hybrid supercar

@@DasGreatBrit It's the same gas engine as in the stingray, so as long as they're still using the global b ecu tuning shouldn't be hard. Would be easier to manage the torque blending with a supercharger rather than a turbocharger kit though. As long as the torque output is predictable by the ecu, shouldn't be an issue.

Honestly? I would take the E-Ray over the Z06 and here's why. The number one reason is that I'm not a fan of the flat-plane crank engine's exhaust note in the Z06. When I drive a Corvette or any V-8 powered car, all I want to hear is a traditional cross-plane crank engine, deep, rumbling exhaust note. The E-Ray sounds like a Corvette should, imo. As far as looks, the E-Ray has the potential to be a bad-ass looking car since it's kind of a clean slate with the body of the Z06 as it's basis. First step is to put on some MUCH nicer looking wheels with the proper offset. Choose a wing that looks better than what's on the Z06. Pick a nice ground effects package with a nice front splitter and a rear diffuser. For the final touches, lower the suspension some for the perfect stance and put on a good exhaust system for an aggressive and powerful sound. I spend more time on the streets and curvy roads than I do on a track nowadays, so I don't feel like I would be giving up anything going the enhanced E-Ray route since I'm not into pushing a new car to it's absolute limits, anyway. I think that applies to the average, MOST performance car purchasers.

LOL @ the clippped ending. Brilliant stuff guys. And btw, I prefer the E Ray's body-colored body parts. The black plastic splashed all over the other C8 models looks cheap, IMHO.

One thing to add to the Z06 vs E-Ray debate is that you may be able to actually get an E-Ray (at sticker). I have a C7 Z06 but when I talked to my dealer about upgrading to a C8 Z06 he basically laughed. They have 250 people on the waiting list and they were getting in about 1 Z06 per month (you do the math). The E-Ray waiting list was at 40 - so that's the list I'm on. Still probably a couple years before I see one. If by that time used C8 Z06s are reasonable, I can always go that route but that engine without a warranty scares me.

ERay with twin turbos will be the best C8 version ever. Wide body, the great 6.2 “i dont care for the flat plane crank” with added turbos and awd. Definitely the best.

I'm guessing the missing "thunk" on upshifts is because the electric motors are doing torque-fill.
