C8 Corvette Stingray Close Up Walk-Around Video
I shot this video today for those who want to see a lot of the details up close.
A special THANK YOU to Mike Furman for making it possible for me to attend the 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray Reveal! Mike is Corvette's #1 Salesman of All Time with 42 years under his belt selling America's Sports Car. Give him a call when you're ready to order your next Corvette!

Great video, thank you!
The C8 is very cool design although a couple of issues immediately came to mind. First, I wondered how those low mounted upright front radiators are going to handle road debris, especially stones. And I get that GM is trying to mimic a jet-like cockpit, but my first thought was the drivers position looks seriously claustrophobic (compared to the C7). And what's with that side mounted monitor? It looks like an after-thought. Seems like GM could have been better integrated the side monitor into the dash. I'm also wondering how loud the LT2 engine will be, seeing that there's only a clear partition between the engine and the driver's head? In any case, I'm hoping to get a C8 test drive ASAP. I'm seriously considering an upgrade, but at this point I'm not sure if I'd prefer the C8, or perhaps a '19 C7 Z06. Thoughts?
