Only reason I want the Eray is for the AWD. That launch is nice but then the Z06 is just… ugh…. 😂 it’s my dream car. When the time comes I definitely have to drive both to know. Either way I don’t think I can go wrong with either imo

Joe, you bring up a valid zonk with that putrid lime/yellow break caliper option. With that beautiful red exterior color, I'd prefer matching red brake calipers. I'd also prefer the AWD ERay Stingray, not that I don't love this Z06, because I do. The wheels are great as are the Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Joe, I'm sure you are all aware of the Mecum auction taking place in Kissimmee for the past 10 days. It would be well worth your time to take in all of the absolutely magnificent automobile art that they are offering, not the least of which includes many dozens of Corvettes from 1953 - 2023. Amazing.

Great video Joe, the Z06 is awesome. Just a bit leery of the motor not lasting due to being a 5.5.L Flat-Plane Crank engine. I have 4 friends that blew their Ford GT-350 engines and the vet is even bigger from 5.2L to 5.5L. Hey Joe, why is the price so high? Is that an ADM price? You can build the Z06 HTC ZL3 options with carbon brakes, without the Z07 package, for $140 on the website. Thanks again Joe! You cannot beat the sound of the engine!!!! Cheers Brother‼️👍👊🇺🇸

OR Red Mist HTC same everything else. I would love the red dipped but the glare would be criminal. Also GM has a warning about the glare so they cant be sued.

The flat plane is nice, but no comparison for me. AWD and low end torque is where it's at. They both sound great. AWD helps immensely in many situations, including the track. I even like the e-ray looks better. Solid color works better for this body IMO. And amazingly, it even costs significantly less! I can drive the e-ray on a joy ride getaway for days, and not worry about getting stuck in bad weather in the mountains. No brainer choice. The only negative is the reduced reliability because of the complexity. But the major e-components (motor and battery) should be very reliable. Sure you'll probably want to replace the battery in 10 years or so to stay at good performance levels (I think it has an 8 yr warranty), but by then there will be a much better battery to replace it with.
@StevenGSafran
@StevenGSafran Ай бұрын
The Eray will be more reliable long term than the Z06. The FPC Z06 engine is not going to last more than 80-100K without a major rebuild or replacement. It's a racing car engine....not practical for the street as a daily driver. The Eray engine is proven and will last for as long as you maintain it. The hybrid complexity is there but Prius are going for 500K and proving that hybrid technology can be made to last and be reliable so not shocked that GM is backing this battery for 8 years. Go Eray and get an extended warranty if your concerned.

I also like that with an E-Ray I have the option to bolt on a Lingenfelter supercharger if I choose to.

Between the Z06 and the E-Ray, I’d definitely pick the former without a doubt. Specifically a 3LZ coupe with the Z07 package. Btw, that’s a nicely spec’d Z06 Convertible you got there!

IMHO, it depends on what one wants out of their Vette. If someone wants a slightly, unruly track monster with the beautiful noises of that 5.5L FPC then the Z06 is for them. If someone wants a 4 season AWD, all rounder, easier road tripper then the E-Ray is where they should look. It's like a 911 GT3 vs a 911 Turbo. Both wonderful cars, but for different purposes. I personally keep going back and forth myself but know that the E-Ray fits my needs/wants better. An electrified, AWD version WITH the 5.5L FPC would be where I want to put my money.

I was going to get a Z06 but decided to get the Eray and I'm glad I did. It's got the low end torque I want and you don't have to drive it like a maniac to enjoy it on the street. It does everything well and for someone who doesn't ever go to the track it makes a hell of a lot more sense. Tadge says the Z06 is the track monster and the Eray is the "Swiss army knife" GT for the drive who wants a car that does it all and isn't focused on the track and I agree. 4 wheel drive, faster off the line and faster up to 100 mph, Stealth mode, Carbon ceramic brakes included and best of all an engine that will last for hundreds of thousands of miles. The flat plane crank screaming Z06 engine is amazing but it's not going to last more than 80-100K without needed major rebuild or replacement. You'll also get about 1.5X better MPG with the Eray which means more range so on all counts the Eray makes a ton more sense for someone who wants a GT that can do it all and be driven day in and day out. That's why I switched and went with the Eray and I'm thrilled with that decision!

Joe, you scared me this time. That car is so fast! You compared this car to the E-Ray. My concern about the E-Ray is that because the technology with the batteries and stuff is so new, it might be problematic later on. I'd hold off on buying the E-Ray for now. Give it a few years, let 'em work out all the bugs. In fact, they may even phase it out if it proves to be unreliable or problematic. Bottom line, this car is solid, but the E-Ray is a prototype...in my humble opinion.
