The Midlife Crisis 2008 Chevrolet C6 Corvette Convertible intro

[@Darrint]

Hate when people say it’s a mid life crisis, no crisis here. Just finally after raising three kids and working for over 35 years I can now afford something I’ve always wanted. Nice car but please, KEEP THAT ENGINE CLEAN!

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Well, the new owner will have to do that. I did the car all up and got bored. Sold it and now looking for the next fun toy.

[@JimVeneskey]

I agree, I hit 60 this year, planning on retiring next year and I’m treating myself to a C6 convertible soon as I can find the “perfect” one for me.

[@JimVeneskey]

@@midlifecrisis1979keep working out regardless for the sake of your family if nothing else.

[@richardconrad9984]

I just bought one a C5 convertible mint condition I'm 67 and before my dirt nap I treated myself to a Corvette mine is spiral Gray with the blacktop..... Hey we like our toys right and we deserve and I truly am happy for you I can hear the excitement in your voice

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Sounds like you earned that car and I hope you enjoy every minute with it. Thank you for watching.

[@richardconrad9984]

I like that carpet in your trunk

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thank you. I wish I could tell you where to buy 1, but it came with the car. I think I saw 1 on Amazon some time ago, but not sure.

[@Cruzinthecoach]

Don't mess with the lights bro

[@midlifecrisis1979]

I left the headlights alone. Just changed the side marker lights to smoked LEDs.

[@Sunzac817]

I will look into raising my front end with the adjustment you mentioned so my air dams don’t scrape so much. I will take it to the dealer as I am no where near a mechanic!😂

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Lol, enjoy the ride.

[@SilvernFit]

I have a 2007 C6 Convertible. I love it. I'm surprised an 08 did not have a power convertible top. But, Car is awesome, enjoy it.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Yeah, I was surprised too, but I try to look at it in a positive manner. No power, no motor to break.

[@SilvernFit]

@@midlifecrisis1979 True!

[@dogzillamonster]

@@midlifecrisis1979 I have a 2008 convertible and it does have a power top. Maybe it was an option. Absolutely love the car.

[@ThisOldCarChannel]

Hey Leo! Like the vids brotha! I have a 2013 Grand Sport targa top. Thanks for the tips!

[@midlifecrisis1979]

My pleasure. Thank you for watching.

[@paradiseslates]

I start a lot of c6 videos but don’t finish…yours I finished. Hilarious. Good job. Trying to find that c6 convertible too. Not corvette advice but look up glp-1 agonist meds (wegovy, mounjaro). These new meds are amazing. Almost 60 lbs down since Aug. FYI not an ad just trying to help someone else out. Cheers.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thank you. I am glad you enjoy the videos. I got some that will have you rolling. Just broke some stuff on the vetted, so once those parts come in, I will let the world know of the dumb stuff I do. Lol. I will look further into GLP-1. I know they are mostly for diabetics, but might be for others too. Thank you.

[@richardconrad9984]

I'm going to check into that supercharger maybe I get my C5 a few more horses....lol

[@midlifecrisis1979]

I met a guy at a car show that had a supercharger on his c5 and he told me he loved it. I hope you do too.

[@vigencharbatian4943]

Great video.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thank you. I appreciate you watching my videos

Thanks for subbing

Thanks for representing most of the population. “What is this called? I don’t know. It came like that.” 😂

[@midlifecrisis1979]

👍

[@Bansheemyk2001]

I just bought a 2010 vert. You do you! It's your car! Put pink fuzzy dice in it if you want! Traded my 2019 Ram limited for the Vette.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Ha ha ha ha ha awesome don't think I'm gonna do pink fuzzy dice. And I'm definitely keeping my RAM but I always do what I want. Thank you for watching an enjoy that vet.

[@Bansheemyk2001]

@midlifecrisis1979 yeah, I wasn't using it other than commuting back and forth to work and chauffeuring the extender family around. Now I commute in the vette and they can figure out their own way around!

[@davemasello]

Good video! I just got my first C6 convertible a week ago. If you replace your headlights, I’m interested in the old ones. I’m in NH so, let’s start a NE Corvette club!

[@midlifecrisis1979]

I am leaning towards the C8 style headlights. Might be later this summer. There are 2 corvette clubs in the southern part of MA. I just don't have time. 3 kids, a wife, and alot of issues. Lol

[@joep6727]

Enjoy it brother. I also rock a 08 C6 Conv., daily driver too!! Why? Cause I wanna!!!! Anyway, did the spoiler and the Pioneer radio. Must haves. Suggest you tint the glass, 30%, nice touch. See the calipers were done, necessary. Good luck buddy, enjoy. PS - getting ready to do the headlights, the V shape, not Morimotos........................

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thank you. I think I will do the GTR headlights instead of the Morimoto headlights. Let me know which spoiler you did and if you like it. Still have not decided if I am doing the extended ZR1 spoiler or the Wickerbill 6.5 spoiler like the c7. I am leaning towards the extended ZR1.

[@Motorsportsgeek]

Make sure the tune is good and mixture is safe so there's no long term damage.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Yes sir

[@jeffhogancamp5379]

Added the New Headlights : kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioLVY3RmrJaspqc Wish mine had come with the Procharger. But i am in California and Almost everything is illegal here.. hope your project is coming along..

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thank you. I think I might have done all I want and am ready for a new project. Just haven't decided on what yet.

[@NightmareCrab]

indeed, a midlife crisis automobile

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Lol, yes it is

[@omaralvarez536]

Leave the car as it is.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

I can barely sit still. Got to change a few things. Thinking a race style steering wheel, touch screen radio, backup camera is a must, then the rest are just on a whim. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

[@Sophos1964]

@@midlifecrisis1979, I recommend adding front parking sensors too.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

I do think it is a bit hard to see where the front end of the car ends, but with some practice, I am sure anyone can figure it out. I don't think I will add front parking sensors, but thank you for the suggestion. Have a wonderful day and enjoy the videos.

[@tryjames1ify]

I agree leaving it original besides the booster that is added

[@richardmorris6365]

​@Midlife Crisis headlights,a big cross drilled brake kit by Brembo & painted calipers. Maybe some chrome hoops roll bars.

[@davidd337]

This guy is really goofy.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Thanks. Just comes naturally

[@christschool]

This video is so cringey.

[@midlifecrisis1979]

Cringey? Not sure how, but if you tell me, then I can work to fix that so it is more entertaining and not cringey.
