23:43 Saying “they did a great job” is an understatement for Chevy. This car is going to be so legendary on its own. I’m happy for the company as a whole and definitely happy for the Corvette division and racing division going forward.
Adam C great piece of engineering and big step for GM, they biggest thing with this though is the performance and handling you get at this price point.
transformed the car to GOD mode. fantastic choice. Now I want a C8. If GM did this themselves from beginning, It would boost their sells 100000 times more
Street Speed 717 yes sir she looks ridiculous!!!!! Love it,it looks like a European Super car,I have been around Vettes forever this C8 is out of this world, great job man,Congratulations!
The C8 looks absolutely wicked, Mike. It has no right what so ever to look this good at this price. Love the wheels and I actually love the setup of the driver-focused cabin. So many buttons means so much to play with, and it all belongs to the driver! I think that this car could be the game-changer for so many people as it allows the lesser earning bracket to get a taste of Supercar looks and performance from new. You do a great job, Mike and I love how the most expensive vehicle that you have purchased was gifted to your better half. A true gentleman if ever I saw one.
*For probably the FIRST time ever i completely agree with your upgraded wheel choice. those wheels do look awesome on that car big time! the ONLY way those wheels could look any better is if they had a little bit of a lip on the outter edges of the wheels front and rear both, like maybe a 2" lip on the rear and 1" front*
Country Boy56 lol Calvin was one of the guys in the C8 arrival video he posted. hes so small he needed a booster seat to see out the window of his buddys new C8🤣🤣🤣🤣 i think he weighs about 80 lbs wet so i think he was being funny when he said he weighed 500 lbs lol
Tbh, I wasn’t really that big of a fan of those wheels on Shane’s Z but wow, what a great idea putting those on the C8. Damn, it looks perfect. With the bigger wheel and style, it itself pops and I think those wheels would look good in black too. I think the fitment of the front wheels would look amazing if you could somehow professionally flare the fenders out to be even with the wheels.
I think you should put the Corvette center caps on the custom wheels! They fit the look of this car so well, it would look even better with the Corvette emblem in the middle!
Man I haven’t seen one in person yet. I’m a huge vette guy and at first I really didn’t like the idea... until I seen it...can’t wait for the Z06. But is it badass in person?
Totally agree. Someone in my apartment complex had one back in the summer, must’ve worked for GM because I was surprised to see it. They’re all over Novi too for some reason
@@ADUBLIFE GM workers arent just allowed to take cars home. You did not see a c8 parked in your apartment complex last summer😂😂😂 you probably saw something else that looks similar from a far. Not to mention, pretty sure they hadnt even started road tests anywhere near that early. Another note, all road tests were done with the white vinyl wrap they use for shipping. Nice try tho kid
Those Brixtons are the perfect design! The front fitment, though... not feeling it. I've been saying that the stock C8 wheels are the fugliest options ever for any Corvette.
I mean he isnt wrong...this ISNT the first ever c8...the first three c8’s are owned by disneyworld japan disney world and Disneyland...tgey have a partnership with chevy to get the first three corvettes for every yearly model BECAUSE of the test track ride in each “resort park”
When you left home I was thinking “the c7 looks a little bit better”,when you brought it back I was like” they don’t even need to be in the same garage together “ wow now I want one so bad! Thanks Man! Now my wife’s pissed.
Lol, I'll admit, I've never really liked vettes, and the C8 either...but after seeing one in a real situation, I LOVE IT. Although, I can't afford one, but definitely one day I'll pick one up. They are fucking sick. Just what it represents even.
I feel like black rims are so overused nowadays, nothing wrong with black rims, they are just so popular its refreshing to see a different color rim. Love the wheels mike!
One of my favorite things about mike is, no matter how big he gets, he doesn’t Change.... he was going towards mclarens, but then he went back to his routes, duramax, corvette.
Cruising down Union Deposit Road and 83, nice! Greetings from Harrisburg, great vid, great car man! Feels bad we don't have better roads for your cars in central PA, but keep flexin' on em anyway!
My first time seeing the C8's black dast interior and it's AWSOME. Still trying to get a handle on the C8 exterior design. C7s still blows me away! Nice wheels.
I agree the stock wheels no matter what wheel let's the car down. Those wheels you laced her with are the truth, Congrats. Front fit is a touch wide but the visual difference is what she needed.
Jose Rangel Corvette started using the cockpit dash setup in 1991 in the c4. Learn your car history fool. The corvette always been a higher level car than a Supra.
Concave silver wheels will be a must with no poke plus reflective silver graphics will make that car. The aftermarket will come to the rescue soon enough. Great channel
Relax bro, this is just the base base model! There will 110% be “wide body” C8’s in dealerships here shorty! Crazy to think this car is only 60% of what is about to come!
Car Guy He don’t understand most updates for vettes that release afterwards are usually power and performance upgrades hardly ever cosmetics lol. Company’s slap truck fender flares on a car and call it a widebody lmfao that’s not a true widebody kit
I kinda like the C8 as a car especially with the new wheels but I can't like it as a Corvette..They shat over what Corvette was since forever all the way till the C7..I don't say it's a bad car in any possible way but this is not a Corvette..
@@urface12343 not really any cheaper, its just a lot easier to pull off if youre not gonna do under the hood, the door sills, and certain other places. imagine wrapping a car say, turquoise and having red under the hood and in the door sills
Thats the best corvette man those wheels man there sick you should be the first to wide body that car to look like your c7 it looks wide and low best cars man
@@yybb3804 no it was 100% c8 I saw it October 9 2019 at 6:26 pm just looked at the details of the picture on my phone I can send you the picture if you don't believe me
When it pulled into the shop after shane drove it, I swear I thought it was a 720S. The front end looks so aggressive with it being lower. Really looks like a supercar. Congrats Mike and keep the content rolling
The wheels do make a huge difference. Absolutely the best looking corvette to date. Makes the c7 look super dated. That’s still a good looking car too, but really no comparison
"tHe WhEeLs aRe UgLy mIkE" ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS WAIT 24 HOURS TO SEE MY PLAN :)
Congrats. Thank you for making the C8 content we've ALL been waiting for!!!!
Chrome wheels? 🤮🤮 sorry mike i like almost everything you do, but those do NOT look good imo.
Didn't you show black tri spokes you bought with the car? What happened to those
Mike there is a UA-camr that got his C8 3 days ago
I like how they kept the pointy nose on the c8
"A lambo with an engine in the front and a Corvette with an engine in the back, great time to be alive"

Best looking C8 I've ever seen. Those wheels make a huge difference.
Mike: He did have Calvin in the car...Calvin's a big dude, probably 500 lbs, 600 lbs
Shane: ...is he really??
💀
😃
And he cut right after it because everyone just turned and looked at Shane, disappointingly
Haha 😂 right when Shane said that I went to the comments to see if anyone else noticed that 😂😂😂
Dang he did him dirty for leaving that "is he really?" in and cutting it right after just made it worse 🤣🤣💀💀
Dude that is so nice. I've never wanted a car so badly. The new Corvette is a real dream come true.
First Ever C8: photographed at “that” angle
transformed the car to GOD mode. fantastic choice. Now I want a C8. If GM did this themselves from beginning, It would boost their sells 100000 times more
Wheels on that C8 were worth every penny. Car looks dope!
It’s awesome how much more excited Mike is for his C8 than his 600LT that cost 3.5x more
Has something to do with being "the first".

That's why the C8 looked so weird. It was the damn stock wheels.
Facts they ugly asf
True, the new wheels make it look more 'Ferrariesque' in my opinion.
Chill its a base c8 the base c7 wheels look weird too.. Its about cost cutting you buy the base model to modify 100%..
If you wanted to stay with stock wheels they needed spacers like 95% of stock wheel need.
Yeah those stock wheels are ugly AF. These new wheels are sweet, but the fronts need to be a bit different offset. Nice build, can't wait to see more.
First ever c8 corvette: first ever dog to be in c8
First ever c8 to change aftermarket rims... IN THE WORLD
7:55 For the first time is SS717 history, Mikes passes a gas station and doesn't have to fill up!😂

Country Boy56 no
He benches 5-600 hundred, you seen them guns??
Country Boy56 comment was quoting what Shane said
Thank You!!!!! I'm sooo glad you didn't go too far with the black. Everybody is on the black on black bandwagon. You chose perfect. BRAVO
Those wheels are SICK. Best mod you could ever make on the C8.
Hes probly 5, 600 pounds! Shane " is he really" 😂😂😂😂

The interior of the c8 looks like a supercar interior.
Fattah Rahman well it is pretty much a Chevy supercar
It's better then

@@Odinthegiantdog Ferraris aren't all that. The C8 isn't a POS.

Now I know why the C8 was "ehh" to me at first... The wheels... I've fallen in love with them with aftermarket wheels.
Crap wheels will make just about any car look meh.

Arclight ok first c8 to the public
Nuts for a base model, imagine the hot models of this car, how sick will they be!
Needs 5% tint on sides and back and 35% on windshield
too dark, I'd say 15% on the sides 20% rear windshield and 60% front windshield
