I know this video is 1.5 years old but I'll comment anyway. 1. Thanks for the tip on the brush for the engine bay. 2. I believe the 1LT has the HD rear camera, it takes some getting used to and I generally don't use it, but it's there and does provide a good rear view. I have the regular Z-51 spoiler so it's not a bother. Definite blind spots on the rear quarters but if you adjust your side mirrors so you can't see the side of the car then go just a little more, it helps a lot. 3. I have the same garage issue. I put a pad on the wall and use the exit memory setting (steering column forward, seat all the way back). It definitely helps on entry, exit is still a bit difficult. Both of these things help a lot. Not sure if a 1LT has memory seats. Thanks for continuing to do these videos.

An update on exiting the car in the garage: Thanks to another C8 owner (sorry, I forget the name) who suggested setting the exit memory with seat as high as possible. This is a huge help. So, steering column full forward and up, seat full back and up. It's almost easy to exit! Hope this helps someone.

I have a Z51 and can attest to the ridiculous amount of brake dust that gets on the wheels... My black wheels are almost never clean. My biggest complaints were the open vents on the sides and the exposed radiators up front, I ended up buying aftermarket mesh to cover them up. Best way to keep the engine bay clean is to 3M ceramic everything you can so the water beads off. I had my C8 done front to back for about $850.

Sold my 2020 non-Z51 2LT coupe for the 2022 1LT HTC Z51; Hate to say it but the Z51+magride makes a huge difference. Put 9k miles on my 2020 and so far 5500miles on the HTC. The HTC solves your # 2,3,4 hate-list. Much less wind noise at +80miles, standard cam-mirror and ok blind spot view off the nacells. My other observations: The injection ticking noise is gone and you can hear the exhaust by lowering the rear window. HTC trunk is always usable which is fantastic for a daily drive. It looks way more exotic, especially with the black roof+nacells on red,orange,blue.Last but not least no pullovers to operate the roof!

#5 Bothered me so greatly that I went to Eikon Motorsports and purchased a Lambo door conversion kit. In most cases, the doors open far enough so that I can then lift the doors up and out of the way and get a nice big space to exit the car. As far as getting in or out, that takes a small amount of time. Once in, then I drive her and can't stop having fun. That includes the mirrors which seem to given me adequate view. My C8 hasn't given me the reflections that yours has, so I can't comment on that aspect. In terms of lane changes, I do have to be careful in certain circumstances, but so far, so good after 14 months of driving. I'm happy with the performance and will not get any of the uprated models. I'm becoming very familiar with the center button stack, so that doesn't bother me. My vertical doors did need adjustment. The easiest way was to obtain high strength grommets. I put them in place as additional bump stop to make up for the sag that develops with break-in on the strut/shock.

#6 Missing the 3rd pedal. Kidding aside, the blind spot issue is scary at a 45 degree intersection and a blind spot sensor can't tell there is oncoming traffic 75 feet away that will cream you if you pull out at the wrong moment. The only solution is try to use whatever lane area you might have at the intersection as you approach to angle the car closer to 90 degrees and maybe get a chance to see better.

Part of the deal with this, i guess like you said, get the HTC. 5. That is a thick door, had no idea! Have you considered putting padding on the garage wall just in case you accidentally swing door too far / too fast? As for parking lots, always park at the very end of the line away from people when possible.

There are some fixes. I have blind spot mirrors. Cost about $6 and is a huge help. I do use painters tape on the vents when I wash my car. There is a setting that automatically moves the seat back and adjusts the steering wheel giving you much more room for ingress and egress. I do notice some reflection from the dash on the windshield. My biggest concern is the lack of space in the interior. No good place for snacks and drinks when we travel. In the winter there’s no place for coats either. All that being said we love our C8. After all it’s not meant to be a grocery getter (our Honda CR-V) is it! Kudos on your video your points were well made. Cheers!

Regarding the garage parking, I back my Corvette into the spot as close to the wall as possible. My wife's car is pulled straight in and also hugs the wall as much as possible. The rationale is backing the Corvette having both cars pointing in opposite directions but sharing the center of the garage for ingress and egress for both cars. That precludes having to squeeze between the wall and the Corvette to get in the car.

In 1994 I bought a new twin turbo Supra targa. If you think the wind and buffeting in the C8 is bad take a ride in one of those old Supra's and you'll appreciate what you have now. In 1995 I drove the Supra from Key West to Virginia Beach with the top out and I took so much wind buffeting to the top of my head that I lost some hair and I'm pretty sure I can blame my male pattern baldness on the wind damage to my scalp caused by that trip.

For the seat issue, why aren't you using the memory features? It made it worlds easier to get into the car. When the car is off, my seat is alllll the way back and the steering wheel is all the way forward. When I turn the car on, my seat moves into position and the steering wheel adjusts to my memory setting. Shut off the car, everything retracts and I can get out with ease. Maybe you know this and were just making a point of how huge the doors are, but I wanted to let you know this existed. It's personally my favorite feature. :)

I'll add the camera rearview mirror. It makes me go crosseyed every time I try to use it. I also have the high wing and it's difficult to open the hatch with it in the way. But overall I love it!

So for the blind spot problem I use the rear view camera on the rear view mirror that seems to help. But the doors I’m even huge I’m 6’2 and I have to park away from everything so I know I can get in and out.

The rear view cam fixes the bad vis if makes you “hate” the car. The wind noise is seriously terrible especially in the convertible. Best way to describe it- think motorcycle!! Still- one of best sports cars ever built.

Trying to get into my first Corvette within the next 2 years should I go with the C7 or C8? I think the C8 Base Models will be fairly affordable once the 2023 Z06 comes out. Right now in my area a base 2015 C7 Stingray is $50K, 2017 Grand Sport is around $60K & 2015 Z06 is $65K+. All under 30K miles. Hoping in the next 2 years they’re in the mid to low 40s for a Z06 or I’ll see what the C8’s are looking at in 2 years.

Will the GT1 seats be more comfortable for daily driving than the GT2 seats, if 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

That water on the engine bay is actually concerning.... I'm in the market for a new car, and I am very much an advocate for using my car for everything. The C8 will be my only car, does the rain getting into the engine bay affect anything? Does that rain also seep into the trunk space?

1-4 can be solved through options, didn’t even comment that it has the rear view camera feed onto your rear view mirror. #5 is a huge issue and it’s even worse when you’re sitting inside, you can’t really tell how far off the venting sticks out.

How? You people are weird and always in the comments of videos like these and it just makes you appear super jealous and absurd lol you act like he isn’t aloud to not like certain things about HIS car? He paid out the ass for the car and probably worked his ass off to be able to. If he doesn’t like certain things about an expensive car, especially issues that shouldn’t even be an issue on a car like this then he has that right. And they ALWAYS reiterate many times how they love the car still and that it’s just small things they would change.
