AWEEE YEAAAAH its like there is a never ending supply of these Corvette owners. Also wouldn't it make sense that every year is "record breaking" I am sure more corvettes hit the road every year vs the pole outside of the favorite hooterz spot.
Like walking stereotypes... Newbalance, white socks... fat... and 55-70 years old... :dat: c7 sure bring in all that young blood, which is what they said would happen with the C6, and C5 and C4..... this doesn't change...

That's my biggest gripe with the corvette. That "exclusive" owners club is just... :gag:

Look man, Denny's is where the old guys with Camaros go. No self respecting gold chain, airbrushed hoodliner family is going there. They will be at the Red Lobster.

"This vehicle won't be on the lot long!"

:notsure:

With the C8 coming in at that price point, I think only the most bro-ly Bro would buy the Mustang now.

Many apologies.

The last thing anyone wants is a Corvette club riot. I shall ask the underhood mural gods for forgiveness.

I'm :wrong: but I think the cross plane coyote sounds better especially with the new active exhaust.

:dat: :notwrong: but I feel like compared to the c7's and before, it sounds not far off from a v6. But then again, I noticed he short shifted so :notsure:

I meaaannn.... A $60k car is a big step for some people mang. Thats like 2x a moostang GT.

A base c7 was $52k. Sure they sold a lot of them but man, thats still an expensive car in general terms, especially for a toy.

Chebby has sucessful added only $8k onto the old base msrp while bringing the car to a massive leap in performance capability.

I remember autoxing my C5 with stock exhaust and someone showing me a video where you only hear wind noise as the car goes by. They sound good but are quiet in stock base forms, they know their new purchase audience includes many :wap: . It'll sound great, like any other Corvette, with some Brolas or the like.

Can't you switch that on/off :doe: ? Admittedly I don't know because I don't bother sniffing around stuff that's 'more than I can afford pal' too much.

Yes, but I think at certain throttle percentages it comes on no matter what after 3000rpm or so. :waxer: would know.
