In this vlog I share a few reasons why I think if you are looking to buy your first corvette or a corvette for that matter you should buy a C7 Grandsport. Corvette has allot of great choices but the GS is defiantly the sweet spot of all them.

My dream car since I was a little kid has FINALLY come true. 40 yrs later, I purchased a 2015 Z51 with 4k miles on it..When I saw it, I snatched it up QUICK. Will be delivered 2mro. Can't wait🔥🔥🔥

So for those that actually Know what's going on in the Vette world, understand just how much a Carbon65 is going to run you. With that said, I could have custom ordered a 3LZ Z06 Fully tricked/optioned out and still spent Less than I did my Grand Sport. Not bragging, but to prove your point from an owner and a relatively young buyer of Corvette. I Test drove the Z06 more than once. I test drove all 3 models (Stingray, and GS). My money landed on the simple fact that I knew I was skilled enough to use about 70% of what the GS has to offer while only being capable of using about 40% of what the Z06 can deliver. My pride is in check so I don't care about having the most HP on the street. And the truth is, your only the fastest till the next level/generation Vette pulls up. My C7 GS is faster than the C6 Z06 round the track and it actually has 40 less HP. More on that in my own vlog. The GS is a murderer in the hands of a capable driver. The Z06 is a suicide machine in the hands of the inexperienced. At the end of the day, I'll take a stock Vette of any trim over any stock machine Ford or Dodge has to offer. You will be faster than just about anything pulling up to you at a stoplight on your way to and from the grocery store 😉👍🏾

Z06 is scary only if you are not familiar with how it reacts to different conditions. It will take a few years to get to know it like the back of your hand. If you master it then it is like addiction to adrenaline, you can never have enough of it. Don’t just start with the most HP, you might just scare yourself and scar you for life. I started out with a 400 hp LS2 and drove it for 5 years. After a while I figured that it wasn’t enough power for me, so I went and got a 505 hp C6 Z06 and been driving it for almost 5 years and started looking for more hp. Now I’m just waiting for the C7Z06 price to come down before I get one in the used market.... or maybe a C6 ZR1.

@@PB0Y1834 Unless you take your car to the track, you simply cannot use the power of the ZO6. I have a "mere" Stingray Z51 and it has more power than I'll ever use on the street. When I went to the Ron Fellows Performance Driving Course in an identical car, I was driving faster than I've ever driven in my life ... why would I want more? Oh, I see ... so I can brag about my car and pay a lot more for insurance and registration! Great idea!

Hi Chuck, Great job--very informative. My daily driver is a 2016 Stingray and I can't get enough of it--just the right amount of power balanced with superb handling. However, you just may have convinced me to move up to a GS--that collector's edition is a real beauty. Thanks again and Happy Father's Day!

Excellent presentation on the Grand Sport, Chuck! And thanks for including Tribute and GS-63 in the video! :) For those interested in purchasing a new Corvette, I can't give a higher recommendation for Mike Furman. I ordered Tribute (my 2017 Grand Sport) from Mike and it was by far the best Corvette purchase experience I have ever had (I've owned 19 Corvettes over the last 12 years). Mike kept me in the loop weekly as my order made it's way through the process. He makes the whole experience fun and trouble free. Mike has been selling Corvettes for 40 years this year, passed the 4,000 new Corvettes sold mark earlier in the year, and is the #1 Corvette salesman of all time. He has also personally owned 18 or 19 Corvettes as well. And for those with a Corvette to trade in, he can provide sight unseen trade in values for you. After my personal experience with Mike, I vowed to never order a new Corvette from anyone else...and I live in SW Oklahoma. He's that good!

Hi Chuck. Thanks for another great video. I am a 2017 GS owner and for me the GS is a great all around car. It has all of the handling of a Z06, with the wider tires and stance, plenty of power for having fun, and the great wide body looks. The only time I have come close to using all of the 460 BHP was at the Ron Fellows school. And even there I did not feel I needed more. In fact one of the school instructors told me that on the Corvette track layout, the GS is less than 1/2 second slower than the Z06 with the instructors driving. I still love the Z06 and even more so the ZR1, but for me I am really happy with my 2017 Grand Sport.

Totally agree! I’ve owned 5 Corvettes. 2 C3s, 2 C6s and my last one is a 2017 Grand Sport. I liked the Stingray, but preferred the wider body like the Z06. Had absolutely no need or desire for the Supercharger in the Z06. I had nothing to prove because the car already speaks for itself. The Grand Sport is the perfect balance for me. I had to choice to special order whatever Corvette that I wanted and I chose the Grand Sport. I am in heaven, happy and have absolutely no regrets!!

I am SOOOO glad I bought my GS. I fell in love with the Grand Sport as soon as I saw it a year ago at a dealership and you have confirmed all the reasons I bought it. It turns heads wherever I go and has all the HP that I need. You can’t go wrong with Grand Sport!

Great vid as always, I like my "16" Z06 but it can be a handful and must be respected for sure, as always thumbs up.

Chuck you are the man you keep putting out exceptional videos with lots of useful information I get so tired of hearing people say the Grand Sports is a fake Z06 the definition of a fake ZO6 would be a Grand Sport that someone put ZO6 badges on.

Great vid Chuck. At the risk of repeating myself, it's not always how fast you get from Point A to Point B, but how you look getting there. lol Okay, okay, how you sound getting there matters too. 😎 Save the Wave.

I wanted a C7, tried to fit in one, but at 6-4 and 230, it was a tight fit... really tight. So for my 65th birthday, I settled on a bigger bodied 2012 GS convertible and as my first Corvette. You speak logic and practical thoughts -- enjoyed your post Chuck. Enjoy that C7!

If you are a taller guy no doubt the C7 coup defiantly is a challenge but the convertible like you said is a nice work around.

Great video Chuck I agree with you a hundred percent on everything you said about the Grand Sport my Stingray is a blast to drive the only thing that held me back from buying a ZO6 or a Grand Sport was a mid-engine coming. If I don't like the Mid Engine when it comes out lol , I plan on buying a Grand Sport.

Great video as always. Love my Z06 but she is a hand full. If you don't like a little "that could have been bad" in your life then stay away from the Z06. I am a racer and have spent many days on the track. I feel like I really know how to "handle" a performance vehicle and as such the seat of my pants tells me "careful their cowboy" almost every time I drive. But, that's what I love about it. I am a little bit of an adrenaline junky. I want that back end dancing, it's exciting! If you want a fast but confident car the GS is a better buy. It's like the 06 doesn't know its own power or at least the tires say"nope thats not what you learned in physics class...I am going to slip now"...lol Bottom line they are all great, just pick the one that fits you best. You won't be sorry. I love the white 17 06. The red stipe is the bomb.

The C7 GS is the BEST car I've driven so far, just the balance of handling and power is unmatched by anything else I've driven, I plan on getting one asap

Like you mentioned, the power in the GS is more usable than the supercharged variants. I have had my 2019 GS for only 3 weeks but I am totally satisfied with my purchase.

Well done comparison video of the Corvette models Chuck and you pretty much hit on all the points as to why I bought my 2019 Grand Sport. I've been hitting a few car shows the past couple weeks and am amazed at the attention the GS draws. Also bought from Rick Conti, good guy and we're fortunate to live only 45 miles from the dealership.
