2011 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Convertible Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

[@apmaquina]

man, you are probably the most professional channel on youtube, honestly you make car and driver stuff look like its made by fred.

[@DEMediaDrive]

Keep up the great work my friend...watched this during my lunch break at work.

[@vortec3204]

I appreciate Kyle's videos. For example with the Corvette I would never have noticed that the current generation has a dual-mode exhaust system. He showed that to us several videos ago. Great attention to detail and good videos with good variety. Keep up the good work.

[@k9keo]

Once again I love how the gauges flip forward when you start the car. = )

[@telj1]

I dig how the tail note changes up once that vac kicks in.

[@Ghazzoul]

correction, this doesnt have a overhead cam. it has a single cam in the middle of the block with pushrods

[@CHUUMPASS]

this is winter in NC!?, i have family there, and the more i see stuff like this the more i`m realizing that i should move there too. stellar review as usual btw !

[@dave11686]

DARK SIDE OF THE MOON! Great vid as always Kyle!

[@johnasbury9915]

Just bought a torch red 2012 GS convertible 6 spd… love her!!!!

[@matheus71998]

great car and great video. kyle,i always see your reviews,they are fantastic,no one in youtube can beat you. greetings from brazil to you,kyle,and keep going with that!

[@motoringwithmonty]

Base price for the GS convertible was around $56k when new. I bought mine a few months ago for way less than that. I have the same car (blk/blk/blk).

[@2010challengerRT]

Hey Kyle, are you sure that's a SOHC V8? I could be wrong but i thought they were pushrod OHV engines. Either way I love your videos,i'm a big fan!

[@MegaMC777]

I've driven one of these last February. It was my cousin's friend who worked at GM as an electrical engineer and had it as a company car. I had fun, great handling I think and I was able to slide the back out on the highway. :P Only thing I didn't like was it felt it was dragging a bit when I step on it. Not sure b/c it was an auto or just had a lot of torque.

[@moonscoasttocoast]

Is that really a typo in the heads-up display? "Check Gages." It should be "Check Gauges."

[@ca13814]

@saabkyle04 So the Grand Sport is basically a regular Corvette with ZO6 bumbers and apperance with a little bit of ZR1 in the suspension and ride?

[@padistedor]

I bought my 2011 GS with 6900 miles on it earlier this year. Got a great deal on it. It's a great car.

[@squeakD]

Ahhhh..., that good old sound of a an American 8-Baller! Beautiful exhaust note on this car!

[@mastertweeker]

@cerrystyle ....just the details that are lacking. You see what I mean? Why does the Vette has to have a partially manual roof and the SLS is fully electrical? and so on...

[@Oxyquatzal7]

Did you film this recently or is it just warm all the time down there? I ask because I noticed you were wearing shorts.

[@TheSaikou96]

We are almost in 2012 and it still has a plastic lock for the convertible??

[@dandanweldy]

oh i forgot to say one thing to you remember i say i knew your channel for 3 years and watch your for that 3 years i achllay tumps up for that 3 years are you Happy!

[@patatasete]

It would be awesome if you put in the description the time when you rev it :)

[@Blopdomia]

Hey kyle could you try to find and show a Ram 1500 Outdoorsman?

[@bergnworld]

your videos are great and improving with everyone you post . but i think i speak for myself and others if possible you should incorporate a little test drive maybe like a 45seconds to a min thanks man

[@slyguyaction]

Is that rust on the brake rotors? Still want one. Make mine a black Z06... Sly

[@GarrettPohlman]

kyle, I know you don't want to say the price the dealer is selling it for but can you list the msrp or the kbb value?

[@TheBigNeil75]

Kyle, do you think I would fit in one of those? I'm 6'6" Great videos!

[@chorstma44]

SHODSKULIPT is an ignorant troll just ignore it. Great video man always look forward to more!

[@rogerb1108]

did you see the shifting pedals? are they both + ?

[@bleachman9000]

yes, depending what model you get, Z06's can get optional Carbon Fiber whilst ZR1's get it standard.

[@vbav7]

@saabkyle04 how do you get taakes over the top of the cars like the bigger ones you do?

[@lesher27]

Can you get your hands on a C43 Amg? Or maybe a full tour of a new c63? I know you looked at one but it really wasn't really a review

[@tssracing14]

can you do that gray silverado by the sign inthe beginning of the video

[@pikachu2537208]

Kyle so this car does require the key for ignition

Great video. When the time comes to replace those mufflers, they must cost plenty.

[@rollingparkinglot]

love ur vids. u do a good job!!

[@FaaizAliTV]

@collin homptin how do u know the C7 is coming put the fall because that's my favorite car and I really want to but it but how did u know its coming out this fall???

[@JamesWoodTN]

Particularly liked how the screen on dash rotated

[@caldon03]

Pretty well done and thanks. However, you used the term "tonneau cover" incorrectly twice when putting the soft top down and describing the molding behind the seats. Also you did not mention the manual transmission gets you the dry sump oil system that the automatic does not come with.

[@MrTONYTONYM]

What's gonna happen if u don't lock the convertible top? Btw is the car made of plastic?

[@pz2243]

Why do both the paddles have a + sign ?

[@Perfect5Recurve]

@kickinthebase I did the math. According to the XE currency converter site, if you were buying this particular model which costs $59,525 US, it works out to 330,329.59 Danish Krone.

[@crazywarriorman]

Annndddd subbed. Love your videos bud.

[@travyyyful]

How's the soft top? Does it squeak?

[@cerrystyle]

@ca13814 ... But don't forget the engine! that's a LS3! GS is just a model with a mix of Z06 features and ZR1 components...

[@Perfect5Recurve]

@kickinthebase anywhere from $49,525 for the base 2012 coupé to $111,525 for the ZR1. The Grand Sport Convertible as seen here has a retail price of $59,525.

[@endofmankind]

What is the name of the song? So I can play it in my new vette too. Cool vdo!!!

[@PiedmontYS11]

Automatic transmission on a Corvette. *face palm* That should be illegal. Either way, I always enjoy your videos Kyle...keep em coming.

[@DaRhino19]

For 50k u just can't beat a vette! Could you do a Centennial Edition? That would be awesome.

[@TheStefanBrankovic]

I dream of a day when Chevrolet will make car that doesn't only drive great, but look cool and modern as competition's cars like 458 or LP- 560

[@alipontiac]

Kyle over head valve, not over head cam, thanx for the video i like it.

[@englandish43]

@LordKevin92 Actually it would hurt more because the safety systems employed in your typical German saloon are a grade above those used in Chevys.

[@Happy2SprayU]

Love corvettes but I have to have a manual. I feel a greater sense of accomplishment driving without aids, regardless of if I am slower than an auto.

[@sandghostQC]

kyle were waiting the ford focus ST 2013!!!

[@WesleySnipesHanson]

@pitlock96 They don't make either. I think your thinking of the Dodge Viper SRT10

[@rogerb1108]

yaaaaay another video from kyle YOU... ARE.... THE..... BOSS!

[@burninrock24]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Grand Sport is the lowest of the corvette models correct? But yet it the most rare? Like I said, correct me if I'm wrong.

[@adasdqweqw]

When will you upload Aston Martin Virage Volante?

[@XspetNAZ]

is there a zr1 soft top?

[@Niko-br9ql]

12:00 avg fuel economy 7mpg. Some one is definitely stepping on the gas pedal really hard lol

[@kleinbottled79]

Or letting it idle a lot.

[@JedemPoKucama]

nice work Kyle :)

[@jigo53]

daaamn car looks nice as hell

[@17poio]

It's 96F on a december day???

[@TruJoker1]

@mahadbaba09 No it shouldn't, Aston Martin doesn't offer hardtop convertibles either. A vette is about being light weight, this was the first generation to have a power top as an option based on weight savings.

[@JoshJW11]

I love this car, GM just really needs to put their next generation navigation system in this! The same one that can be found in other new Chevy's the Cruze, the Volt etc.

[@palman18]

we always have to remember that Chevrolet is making cars that are worthy of being called competitors to the Italian sports cars.

[@cansavaryego7193]

Can you review the new Corvette C7 Stingray?

[@dubboy9001]

such a beautiful sound..... i know its not important but i really enjoy the key design on this car. kinda random... but i do

[@LaughsWontHurt]

What's the price of this beast?

[@NerfYashru]

Please do a review of the 2013 Corvette 427

[@TranswarpXL]

@kickinthebase $288,000 US Dollars for this Corvette in Denmark?

[@Corvette1658]

yes the video that i been waiting for

[@rmf09024]

if you press the shift when pushing gas it will shift into a higher gear, if your press shift when letting off gas then it will downshift, get it

[@GriffXJ]

Wow, that convertible top is so jerky and loud (nothing like the smooth and quiet foreign convertible tops)

[@PATjA15]

@17poio yeah it was filmed a while ago, but lately here in north carolina its been around 70 degrees....kinda annoying.

[@sauron8138]

Correction...it has 12" wide rims in the rear, as does the Z06.

[@yasu_red]

Two shift up paddles? Im confused.

[@craigt5906]

Put a set of Black ZR1 19/20 wheels&tires red hashmark and red calipers and this car is PERFECT

[@ilovecars1996]

the corvette, as many have noted, still is behind a bit technology wise but in general its an amazing car

[@turtleownage]

I promised myself this will be my next car, I can't wait.

[@ethyrice]

Was it?

[@cerrystyle]

@mastertweeker I get ur point and want to respect ur opinions and answer.

[@45barber1]

Test drive 2011/2012 charger r/t please

[@TheEddy1122]

What pink floyd song is this?

[@Corkoth55]

@kmann1994 i certainly wouldn't say '90s buut.. it has looked quite the same for the 2000s

[@jeepguy95]

No chimes?

[@kammy006678]

You forgot the smart key access! Lol. My uncle has a 2008 Z06 so I know they have it.

[@dandanweldy]

Kyle i you for 3 years and please pleasedo a review on a 2011 Honda odyessy Please kyle

[@NICKLADD]

@iiviijs world land speed record was made by an american made vehicle, the american made space shuttle reaches 25,000 MPH

[@krocialblack]

@saabkyle04 Got a video of that beautiful C5 at 11:31?

[@bigtaker5]

pink floyd time dark side of the moon 10:00

[@chanseormon]

I like the Corvette with Automatic Transmission way better than Manual Transmission better because it's faster from 0-60

[@rapp2hard03]

I agree. It's crazy that Vettes with autos are underrated. They are badass with them. My uncle has one same color and all the only difference is it's not an convertible and his is a 2013. :)

[@emeraldages]

Maybe the new 8 speeds

[@BalkanBuilds]

we have a magna flow exhaust on this and is LOVE IN A TUB

[@ZurriyetBlogs]

720p ???

[@vettedude418]

when you get those vaccum flaps open you gotta nail it! dont just let them close right back up

[@Alan10018]

That Corvette is GREAT!!! :D

[@ekeesee95]

I think you messed up the batteries not in the back those are two compartments

[@motoringwithmonty]

Actually on the 6 spd cars with the dry sump oil, the battery is in the back

[@dfair101]

Does anyone know the exact dimensions of the boot? (Trunk)

[@TheMcooper17]

Had a ride in one. Trade plates flew off the dash and I got the corner to my bollocks

[@TurboTimTravels]

review that huge truck from the beginning of the video.

[@TheCarArchives96]

the 2006-present Chevrolet Corvette is assembled in Bowling Green, Kentucky, United States
