2020 C6 of the Year Winner - Modified
I’ll save you all - go to 13:00 so you don’t have to listen to the ******** talk about nothing. And nothing new here supposedly up close with nobody around and no zoom in on the interior or scoop.

Maybe 60 seconds of content, and 17 minutes of babbling.

That was painful...
I couldn't hear what they were saying about the 2 calipers in back but I'm betting they DIDN'T get the small one is the e-brake!

Love this...a young adult, Mustang owner, is gushing all over the C8! I cued the video up to the point where he starts videoing the car, so you can skip all of the pre-C8 clip chatter. (It starts at 12:53 if the cue up doesn't work.)

Reminded me of a Rick Conti video, 17 minutes of garbage, 1 minute of information.

I know you’re trying to be witty, but it’s an insult to compare a video like that to one of Rick’s. At least Rick tries to offer information and be entertaining. This kid’s video was the equivalent of being repeatedly punched in the dick by someone wearing brass knuckles.

While I admit that the only part of this that I watched was the clip of him videoing the C8, I don't understand why there's so much negativity about a young man who is clearly excited about seeing the Next Generation Corvette for the first time. But it is Saturday night and the forums do tend to get a little unbridled on Friday and Saturday nights. 
Have a great Sunday, everyone!

So far, I've heard different people in different videos talk about "Spooling" sound. This C8 didn't even have the full spoiler and the guy said "You hear that whistling?".
There was nother video in Germany that someone else talked about the turbo spooling.
So, what are we looking at? Base Stingray or Z06 or what? or what with Turbo?
However, when the guy started the engine, it sounded like a 6.2 V8 and not a 4.0 V8. Are we getting 6.2 TT?

Boy does that thing sound BAD to the bone, if only these clowns shooting this would shut up. KIDS these days 
Poor engineer took the wrong exit - of course he wanted out of there!! Parts of MI can be such a dump. I hope the base doesn't have the wing!

Well maybe Chevy did their job because it seems like the younger generation is excited and know the C8 is coming. Whether they can afford it or not will be something else.

Sorriest C8 video to date. Dude was a ******* moron. Even Parker wasn't this bad in the beginning.
