    Yes, yes I loved it. My 2021HTC was scheduled to be built 12/21/20. So close yet so far away. I'm loving it, and you too. Always ahead of the curve!. You make our life so relaxing!

    Thanks for posting this and all your content, Rick. I just got my '21 HTC on 12/23/20 and the owner's manual is a pain to read through. So instead of doing all the reading from a convoluted manual with no illustrations, I'll just come to your channel for info! LOL.

    Hey Rick I been watching you for over a year. I did not know you before I put a deposit on my C8, but I totally enjoy watching your videos. My dealer told me that my build date is the first week in January 2021 ! I will STILL be watching your videos !

    This was your best video. You didn't waste 5 minutes at the beginning. The sound was all good. The cutaways and video shots were well done. You were on point. I quit watching for a while, if you keep this up, i'm back.
    I do hope the customizations can be ported to the 2020, they are all software.

    • @HillslamsMirror
      @HillslamsMirror 3 роки тому

      Just an FYI for folks: all "bug" and driving experience type changes get rolled out to 2020s as well. Example being the ECU update for fuel tuning/throttle control.
      The only thing they don't get are cosmetic stuff like how the Zmode selection screen operates.
      The 2020s have all the same options, just done in a different presentation format.

    Separate question, do you know if the GM premium leather travel bags fit in the Front Trunk? I see them pictured in the rear trunk, but if I load the Targa roof in the back, I need the “frunk” for the luggage.
    Thank you very much

    Thanks Rick. I just picked up a used 2021 C8 HTC (only 1300 miles on it) so it was good to see something specific to that year. I’m in the steep learning mode of this technological wonder so this was very helpful.

    • @jwnrocks
      @jwnrocks 11 місяців тому +1

      $86k, orig. MSRP 95k. Z51, Mag Ride, front lift, the whole shebang. I had to jump on it. My local dealer that I bought a C6, and a Camaro 2SS from was charging $50k over MSRP when these came out, and wouldn’t even let me sit in one to see if I fit. I’m 6’4” and couldn’t fit n the C7, hence the 2019 Camaro. I won’t do business with them again. I ended up getting my C8 from a Toyota dealer of all places, and they were cool all around. I’m gonna get back to doing the Corvette Wave again!

Question Why the change in Top speed ? Have a 4 pt roll bar for the C7 convertible ,will it fit ,should I install it ? Not for racing ,but , for safety, do not have super confidence in lap bet alone ,to much side slippage and bet burn? Is it true ,C8 has roll bars built in ?Is there a way to install 4 pt harness w/o roll bar? love your channel ,wonderful job

The technology seems better in the 21 compared to the 20 more well defined on all the modes and radio you did a great job in explaining them maybe they should have built in video manual based on the different modes Rick. Great run down also on the Apple/Android Wireless Carplay. I just a got Iphone 12 Mini so I like Apple Car Play works great in the C7 and my Toyota C-HR. Have day Rick. Tom from SC.

    I too was pushed from a 2020 to a 2021, but it looks like its going to be worth it. I guess I'm glad that I have my 2015 Convertible SS Camaro to hold me over tell it gets here. The tough decision will be to decide do I keep both? Since the "vette" isn't a convert, the decision is obvious? It's so nice to know all the little subtle changes. Wireless Andriod auto is worth it.

    2:28pm EST - Browns down by 10 - For the sake of Browns fans(as a Bucs fan) I know what it is like to deal with season after season of disappointment.
    I agree the location for the phone holder/charger is not optimum.
    How about a slot along the infotainment screen to the environment bar/wall. My thought is a felt lined slot that the user can adjust the width & height to cover 80% of the smart phones in the market. There the phone will be slotted at least half way down, be charging via wireless. The only problem will be people with super thick cases.
    Or return with the screen/cubby hole of the C7
