Great side by side comparison and commentary from a guy that owns both vehicles. No bias and no nonsense. Wait for the stupid comments to ensue..."why compare this to that"..."Wait until X comes out"...."it's not really fair because one is mid engine" ...."it's not fair that one is supercharged"...."I would still rather own"....blah blah blah. Both amazing cars priced within $1k of one another. That's the true comparison of "equal" when comparing what you get from either manufacturer Ford vs GM for the same dollars spent. Period.

@yusufelsayed78984 жыл бұрын
That's because it's mid engine configuration. Engine placement configuration is what makes a car's handling very important ans plays a major role. That's because, in addition to a mid-mounted engine's proximity to the rear wheels, this design also allows the car to achieve ideal weight distribution, center of gravity and traction. When the car's weight is centered, the wheels won't be thrown off balance by having to cope with extra weight, and the car can be steered with more precision.

toppdogg2k17 My uncle has a C8 I have driven it at my local track against my 2019 350r.He is 73 I’m 54 I can’t beat him when I’m in his C8 and he can’t beat me when he is in his C8 my car weighs 600 lbs more I weigh 130 lbs more my car does have roughly 31 more hp.He has not spent the money for the track prep to adjust the caster and camber because he won’t track it enough to do so.His front end pushes drastically.I will take rear lose over front end lose any day.The C8 is still a good car but can’t hang on are local track.Why are we even comparing a “SPORTS” car to a “MUSCLE”car.Where’s the Camaro?

Yeah, but Randy Pobst has driven the C8 and he said the GT500 CFTP was "long gone". BTW, I like the C8 but I would rather have the Shelby.

mustang fast on straight, c8 corvette fast on corner cz it provides more stability. that's what I get from this video

@@jessecumbee6156 Its not just hp, power delivery and stability are as important. Whats the point of 760hp when you cant use it! C8 has the perfect weight distribution and equipped with an insane DCT. It will beat Shelby in every way except top-speed.

You look way more smooth and composed in the C8! You can definitely tell the power difference in the straights, but man if that C8 had 100 to 200 more HP, holy shit not much would touch it :-O Awesome driving skills, BTW!

WOW! Congratulations man!! You just went up my list of top 3 favorite car KZbinrs. This video took your channel to another level. I am still gathering ideas on how to do a car channel but I don't know how. I use to have a 2010 Stang GT and then 2017 PP Premium GT that I sold not very long after I purchased it because I finally met the girl of my dreams, got married and now expecting my 1st child. I like my 9 to 5, but I am dying to do this for a living someday and if I can't reach that status, at least a side gig to earn just enough $$ to go pay for a Mustang. My dream is a GT350 pre-owned and a 2nd gen Raptor pre-owned (maybe the new Bronco will replace the Raptor as my off-roader dream car) I've always been a Ford guy (Audi and Ferrari too) since I was 12, but the C7 and now even more so the C8 have won me over to consider one day buying a Chevy for first time ever. I have a MacBook Pro and iPhone to start. I have no idea how to edit videos and do this tech stuff. I am Gen X, I am not Tech ignorant but not too genius either. How can I start? I have a few ideas on what the content might be (aside from cars) Anyways.....congrats you are way on your way to be in the same league as Dough DeMuro!

What you lack in age you make up in knowledge and expertise when comparing the two most legendary American cars there are - Chevrolet Corvette and Ford Mustang!!
