Rick, it would be awesome if you would edit your videos and clip out the goofy laughing fits. The info, speculation, and insight is awesome, but most successful YouTubers do edits to clip out the slip-ups and goofy moments between good sentences. I hope you appreciate honest feedback, keep at it!

I hope they read our comments about the name Manta Ray.

IMO, that interior is overly complex.

Would you actually expect otherwise? Tech is a “black box” world, esp automotive tech, given its market size and level of exposure.

Who's gonna get that Corvette that he's slamming his gloves (with the little metal clips) on?

Sorry didn't waste my time watching the fluff video - did this dealership thank https://www.carscoops.com/ for the use of the pics?

Oh my lord...
We SEE whatever GM WANTS us to see. If you think you're being "manipulated", then I suggest you WAIT for the car to be officially released and not waste time on the internet, or GROW UP. Big bad GM is hardly the first company to do reveals like this (Dodge Demon ring a bell?)

As far as Rick's videos, they are what they are. He's excited and he is in business to SELL CARS, so everyone feeling the need to be Siskel and Ebert, do yourself a favor and don't WATCH.

This place never ceases to amaze me.

Whether you know it or not, I’ll bet you a pound to a pinch of sh*t that you have “Billy-Bob” customers. Sooooo...

Enjoyed the video and rick’s enthusiasm.fwiw i enjoyed your laughter as we all have to always remember this is all supposed to be about having fun.

keep up the cool youtube work. This was my first time seeing your youtube videos

the c7 inventory in the backround looks prepared to sell a lot of c7s this year and when the c8 arrives a lot of those models too..

That camera bit when Rick imitates Billy Bob or whatever his name is, was simply epic. I was laughing so hard during that bit my family wanted to commit me to the nearest insane asylum . Keep'em coming Mr. Conti. I hope the C8 won't disappoint (a la new Supra )

Maybe not the same demand as on the C7 release, but I think it will be strong because of bringing in people who have not bought a vette before. Of course current Corvette owners are some whiney, picky types, I know I was about the C7 before I went in for the big discounts.
