The feeling one gets behind the wheel of a c3 is surreal. No other sports car gives you the seat of your pants connection to the road. Every turn is incredible. You are literally sitting on the rear left wheel. Sharp turns are easy and as you can see it's all oversteer.... literally zero understeer. The side pipes contribute to the exhaust note although I prefer the stock 2.5 inch exhaust all the way to the back. Love my c3.
Great video !! Awesome car and sound! IMO, No car can touch a C3 Corvette when it comes to the view from the passenger compartment looking out over the hood. Also, one of the best dash designs ever. Uncluttered simplicity with the large and handsome speedometer and tachometer dials directly in front of the driver. The dashboards today look crappy in comparison!
Glad to have found this video again. Kept it in my Watch later list ever since, just because its relaxing to watch and listen to. Wish I could have been in a seat, just to experience the car and the road. It's my bucket list to drive on that pass; and any car would do. Thank you for sharing a bit of the experience.
Thanks for the driver's seat point of view. Great sound! Third generation 4 speed manual Corvette has to be one of the most fun cars out there!! Congratulations!!
I love how the "door ajar" light flickers for a second every time he takes a hard right turn haha (The red light in the top-right corner of the 5 middle gauges)
nice to see he added the Hurst shifter, they practically shift themselves, it's the 1st item I replace on my manual shift Vettes, they just have a more solid feel to them & look better too.
+Allen Jackson yeah most of them are wasting their lives in america doing 60 on a highway without slightest curve for 200 miles, behind some huge dumb suv.
sehr schöner Corvette. Bei den engen Passstrassen in der Schweiz hätte ich ehrlichgesagt Angst gehabt. Da dieser Corvette sehr lang ist und dazu noch einbisschen breiter als die meisten Autos.
Real cars are appreciated worldwide, no matter where, Japan, India, all the Europe or even somewhere else, in Bulgaria we have around 10 of them. The country is a small one, so there are not many cars, but lately there are people that every year import some true muscle car from the US. Im getting C3 myself soon.
Very nice car! What a brilliant road! The only annoying thing is the plastic vibration sound. Maybe the camera wasn't fastened properly? Anyway thank you for the video. Also, could you put some technical details about the car on the description, please?
2 years ago I commented on the rattling woodpecker sound. Fix the mike, and go for another recording. What you have is outstanding, barring the rattling sound. I love the video other than that SOUND...!!!
super Video und super Klang, das klappern stammt vermutlich vom Gehäuse, hatte mein jr auch schon mal. Moosgummistreifen haben Abhilfe gebracht wenn ich mich richtig erinnere
Don't worry about the rattles.Mine has millions of em.Had them all fixed ,and after 1 tour through Würzburg I had many new ones.I think all politicians should be forced to drive C3 Corvettes.This way gas prices would drop,and streets would get fixed.:)..........Only joking around..Nice ride
Ich wüsste gern, ob Deine Corvette komplett restauriert ist. Und wenn ja, hast du es selbst gemacht? Ich habe gerade meine 1973 Corvette (454) zerlegt, sprich body off. Video: schade, dass dieses Nebengeräusch zu hören ist; schade, dass Du den vor Dir nicht überholen konntest! Ich wohne in Vancouver, Kanada und hoffe irgendwann in meiner Heimatstadt Hamburg mit meiner Corvette die Strassen unsicher zu machen.
Mama got me an 80 for as a project for christmas. same color outside, doeskin interior. If he gave it one push on the gas before cranking, it'd probably fire right up.
Thanks! Is there a reason why it is only occasionally showing up when you are accelerating out of corners (especially visible around 2:30)? Anyway, congrats on the beautiful car and the will to drive it properly and enjoy it to the fullest.
Sadly soon all combustion cars and trucks including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Car washs will be forbidden too because they are climate killers, now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.!!! (BABVVEN & TEBBVEN & BEFVO laws)!!!
Sucks that that SUV got in before you, if it was relatively empty otherwise you ought to have waited a couple of minutes. The SUV guy was probably all nervous hearing all that thunder rich up his back side.
U have a BB but my SB 406 roller with comp headers and side pipes sounds louder and better. I think faster also. You do have a better restoration than I do though.
the bad thing is that both drivers cant drive and are on the left side of the road. if youre driving so slow does not mean that others like motorbikes or sportscars go faster and its very stupid if you come towards them on the wrong side of the road! you cant say you can see them in these corners, so please first learn how to drive saddles.
+mob1235 also i see you dont look in the mirror if you go left. thats stupid driving. as a motorcyclist i know those guys who cut corners and dont realise that you overtake them. if you arent aware you would crash them down the hill. sry but an awesome car doesnt make automaticaly a good driver. i mean it not offensive but as an advice

Eargasm within 30 seconds!! Awesome Vette, dude! I have a '73 L82. Everyone needs an older Vette. Great road!

I did not know the Corvette was driven by other countries

Ich will au der Klang is so GEIL !!! da kann jedes neue auto einpacken
Great video. It takes me back to my youth and oh, can that engine can sing. .. Love it.
Oh that road is beautiful for driving!!! Wish I could bring my 76 C3 there for some drives.
love your vids
sehr geil! traumhafte C3, und ein sehr schönes video! gruß aus deutschland
Not properly the best place to drive an exuberant american V8 like this but very nice car, awesome sound and marvellous road!
I love how the "door ajar" light flickers for a second every time he takes a hard right turn haha
(The red light in the top-right corner of the 5 middle gauges)
Vizekoenig it's for the headlights dude
@@zuendler1980 you sure it's not for the brakes?
nice to see he added the Hurst shifter, they practically shift themselves, it's the 1st item I replace on my manual shift Vettes, they just have a more solid feel to them & look better too.
Is it weird that I listen to this while working? (Its my dream car!).
Goosebumps all over my body. That’s insane
Great vid ! I've smiled from the beginning to the end of your video ! thanks for sharing
FGX318 my dad the most Mommy love
Wow! It's rare to see a corvette in Europe. Especially a beautiful 69 stingray
+Allen Jackson yeah most of them are wasting their lives in america doing 60 on a highway without slightest curve for 200 miles, behind some huge dumb suv.
+V8 Powerr *minivan or honda or toyota
V8 Powerr you’ve never been to Colorado or heard of it have you....
hammer geiler sound. so soll sich ein v8 anhören. komliment und grüsse.
FREKING AWESOME CAR! i love C3 Corvettes! Sounds soo good!
One of THE best videos of a classic Corvette I've seen.
Ich liebe den fetten Klang eines Big Blocks!!
I had a 73 350 convertable, that video takes me back to some great times, and that car could handle.
Love the engine sound! Nice job!
sehr schöner Corvette. Bei den engen Passstrassen in der Schweiz hätte ich ehrlichgesagt Angst gehabt. Da dieser Corvette sehr lang ist und dazu noch einbisschen breiter als die meisten Autos.
4,45 lang 1,76 breit. Das ist doch Golf Format.
......saugeil, das sind die besten "fuel to noise converter". Hubraum eben......
I love my 4 speed but there are times an automatic trans is nice. Thanks for the upload. Beautiful scenery.
best sound, beautiful car. I like
Schöne Aufnahmen. Sehr gut. Grüße aus der V8Lounge in Neuwied.
👍

who said american cars cant go around corners
MiniOne82 riceburners.
NO ONE...
Its not necesary use THE first speed all THE way
Darum geht's! Kein Dach überm Kopf, dicker Sound ne geniale Strecke...einfach optimal!
Leider ist Silfser Joch etwas überlaufen mittlerweile.
Love video,I have 71 454 4sp convertible. So fun to drive. Well done!
Classic gm belt squeal at full lock love it reminds me of my old 84 scottsdale
Yes. 1st in a M21 Muncie is 2.20 and very long. You can use 1st up to 50mph.
Very nice car! What a brilliant road! The only annoying thing is the plastic vibration sound. Maybe the camera wasn't fastened properly? Anyway thank you for the video. Also, could you put some technical details about the car on the description, please?
now that is a sound!!! awesome!
Vincent Cassel driving? lol
topndope That was exactly my thought. :D
daZzleV I bet it's a snippet from his new movie or some shit. :D
2 years ago I commented on the rattling woodpecker sound.
Fix the mike, and go for another recording.
What you have is outstanding, barring the rattling sound.
I love the video other than that SOUND...!!!
its a vette, its gonna rattle lol
It's not the car, it's the recording device tapping or wiggling on something. Annoying as hell because the rest of the video is excellent.
Gänsehaut beim Start
super Video und super Klang, das klappern stammt vermutlich vom Gehäuse, hatte mein jr auch schon mal.
Moosgummistreifen haben Abhilfe gebracht wenn ich mich richtig erinnere
Thank you for this Video man
I love Corvette !!!
Don't worry about the rattles.Mine has millions of em.Had them all fixed ,and after 1 tour through Würzburg I had many new ones.I think all politicians should be forced to drive C3 Corvettes.This way gas prices would drop,and streets would get fixed.:)..........Only joking around..Nice ride
awesome scenery, would love to run with you there
man... I like the way you enjoy that car...
This Vette is so badass! Get that thing on the Autobahn!
amazing sound
Звук мотора, просто божественен.......
Richtig geiler Sound!!!
*One of the best Italian road*
Very nice view from the nice car!
This feels like a scene out of a Steve McQueen movie.

googled to see what audi stopped for. Gorgeous. I probably wouldn't have gotten out of second.
Corvette C3 is amazing car...
Irgendwann werde ich mir so einen kaufen...
und nicht so einen widerlichen SUV. Was für eine Geschmacksverirrung der jetzigen Zeit.
Bet this rare sight in Italy catches more attention than a Ferrari.
Sehr cool, da muss ich hin.
What's that red light around 6:20?
Super pursuit mode from KITT. Or just headlight open check light.
Thanks!
Is there a reason why it is only occasionally showing up when you are accelerating out of corners (especially visible around 2:30)?
Anyway, congrats on the beautiful car and the will to drive it properly and enjoy it to the fullest.
The switch was to sensitive adjusted, vibrations were sufficient to activate it.
Where is this??? Europe? The road looks tight and narrow...
I like this car
YOU DON’T WANT TO MAKE ANY MISTAKES ON THIS ROAD......
Its good to see the Germans appreciating American muscle.
Isn’t this Switzerland?
This is my 5 th stingray video on youtube that i’m watchign and all 5 of hem have starting issues lol
Super sound, super Strecke und super W/Vette/r, aber daß Du den ganzen Aufstieg hinter der Muttikarre verbringst......
great sound man
where is this place ?
Northern Italy....one of the best roads in the world!!
ben7lowe yea looks great
Tell me about the exhaust setup on the car please :-)
what a machine
What a sound !!
is that vibration from the engine on camera? omfg

In that case, wouldn't it be permanently lit?
How many PS have You got here? I have got L-48 engine... So it is not so many.
What's that blinking light at 1:36 ?
Wieviel inch hat der Motor. Amerikanisches Maß des hubraums
sweet car but the pacific coast highway is where that vette would really shine
Damn I would love to drive that road only I would be ripping it up.
Forza!
Geil und ich war nicht dabei ;-(
Igiene auricolare 😍😍😍😍
"questi giorni quando viene il bel sole..." dude, all you need is a cigarette. And a Miura...
Can someone please help this guy out and teach him how to downshift?
Is he shifting into 1st?
Awesome,
454" con cambio manuale?
Звук как у автобуса ПАЗ:-)
Doofin dalphrin eech meekan os sinen tinfe’ tsed eifen thiechim doogeu sinin
Audi trolling. Anyways sounds sick!
American muscle.
isn't anyone pissed about the camera rattle!!!??? 😠
maybe u've never seen the Alps!
PS BITTE ?? LS5 ? ICH HABE LS4 BIG BLOCK 625 PS
U have a BB but my SB 406 roller with comp headers and side pipes sounds louder and better. I think faster also. You do have a better restoration than I do though.
Be careful man we've all seen the Italian job
Love the sound except that annoying rattle
Awesome interior, but it doesnt go well with the exterior color
You guys know Germans make muscle cars too, like amg mercs
Damn your 'vette sounds great! Shame about the prick in the Audi though.
the bad thing is that both drivers cant drive and are on the left side of the road. if youre driving so slow does not mean that others like motorbikes or sportscars go faster and its very stupid if you come towards them on the wrong side of the road! you cant say you can see them in these corners, so please first learn how to drive saddles.
+mob1235 also i see you dont look in the mirror if you go left. thats stupid driving. as a motorcyclist i know those guys who cut corners and dont realise that you overtake them. if you arent aware you would crash them down the hill. sry but an awesome car doesnt make automaticaly a good driver. i mean it not offensive but as an advice
