They really hit all the iconic notes of the Corvette, while moving it forward with the mid-engine layout. I wasn’t even a huge Corvette fan… I could appreciate the history, but this generation has made me one!
Saying this means ur not taking into account price which is truly the only reason someone would get this over a lambo revualto .. 99% of people would get any lambo of their choosing over this chevy corvette if it was free. Ur out ur mind
@@residentevilfun5724 WRONG. Any performance car with over 1000+ bhp and over 200 mph top speed, with how fast this car accelerates, is a Hypercar. its not your mom's dodge caravan.
I actually prefer the ZR1 with out the ZTK package, looks more like a true super car that competes with Ferrari or Lamborghini. the ZTK package looks more like a GT3 / GT2 RS / F-type SVR competitor where its a little to over done.
I Love the ZTK package because it is over the top and obnoxious looking. 😊. I really love the huge wing on the back). When I was seven years old, I fell in love with a Black Lacquer 69 Camaro with side pipes that was parked across the street visiting my 19 year old neighbor. I was freaking out over it and kept asking my dad what type of car it was because I couldn’t remember how to pronounce the word Camaro.. I ended up getting a T-shirt that said….. “ ain’t gonna be late in my Z28” When I was almost old enough to work, I started waitressing and saved money so I could buy my first car. When I was old enough to get my license. I got A 79 - Z28 with a 350. I put a flow master on it . I Still have it. I’ve had nothing but muscle cars ever since. They all had stick shifts .
FYI hoods don’t “feed” cool air to the intercooler. Cool air comes in the front grill and through the intercooler…the hood design allows the hot air to be extracted out. Important distinction.
Good job and congrats GM and Chevrolet! Let’s those stupid dauchebag haters say it’s not a supercar like Ferrari. At least it’s a car that’s made to be driven from the base Stingray to the Z06 and now the ZR1 everyday! There’s no problem if I get an oil change or service and not cost thousands, if not tens of thousands like a Ferrari, Bugatti, McLaren or Lamborghini. I call order parts and not worry about international lead times or out of stock. If I wreak or want a new one, I can easily buy another without putting a hole in my wallet! Only two three requests:- 1. GM or Chevrolet, please continue churning these beasts out in record numbers, so everyone can buy one without dealerships mark up. 2. Make the vette online purchasable so we don’t need to deal with greedy dealerships. 3. We are all awaiting for the Zora and even then, don’t stop there. make European hypercars the shitbox of Europe! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!!!!
I have a question. I don't know if he noticed but there is a yellow box with a red push button. Looks like a kill switch right on the edge of the back of the passenger seat. I'm guessing this is a pre-production model? If you pause the video at 5.20 you'll see it
It's awesome to see Americans finally take the time to hand-build a car like Ferrari does. The last time I saw this in America was when Plymouth hand-built the Prowler one at a time. Too bad they were limited on funds. Imagine if Plymouth had deep pockets. Anyways, I wish someone in America bring back the Vector. That was America's first supercar.
GM what about the super car lift doors, push start on the steering wheel, one long single semi oval digital screen, rid of the cup holders, with 5/60 warranty
Tadge Juechter retirement, split window. This is his mic drop moment before heading into the sunset. This car is a major investment for what it stands for..
In many ways, Chevy has exceeded most super car makers purely based on the fact that chevy has spent so much money on engineering, where most super car makes do not have the resources to match in research and development live Chevy. All the parts seems to come together perfectly, like a Swiss watch. And because of their automotive background, they are able to make the corvette cheaper and at a higher number of production than their competitors. That essentially is the chevy advantage here, doesn't necessarily mean it is a faster car than its competition, but it probably is a hell of lot easier to maintain and use as a daily driver than its competition.
The split window and quad tail lights are bonafide Corvette design signatures! A TRUE AUTOMOTIVE ICON. Well done GM.
It looks so killer
Looks like a dated Lamborghini

LOLLLLLL CMON.. Chevy or Lambo? Smokin crack bruh
Yes sir I would at the end of the day it’s affordable
Performance without the major cost!!

I love everything about this car. Amazing!
Beautiful corvette ZR-1 the beast car
Those wheels are amazing.
I will feel like a Super Hero with this.
@ @jowga Aint too many Old Baulding Baby Boomers like You Who are Super Hero's !
holy shit, this looks absolutely wicked.
HyperVette❤ “The take over begins”
Engine is beautiful🔥
I was never a big vette fan but this one is a beauty!!
The spec on this particular car is sick
no manual = appliance. no thanks...fu GM
Blue and black combo is wicked
really? what color is yours?
@@grantvardanyan8921tf are you talking about lol
I like Black and red and that’s what my C8 Z51 HTC is.
Absolutely spectacular
Nice video that thing is an absolute beast
One word... SICK!!! 😮
We all know the Z06 is a supercar. Is this ZR1 considered a Hypercar?
Yes
Hyper cars are Koennisegg only ..sorry i do love vettes but .........
@@residentevilfun5724 WRONG. Any performance car with over 1000+ bhp and over 200 mph top speed, with how fast this car accelerates, is a Hypercar. its not your mom's dodge caravan.
Awesome job describing it man
really feeling like a villain with this
no manual = appliance. no thanks...fu GM
The blue wheels with the sea wolf grey would look sick
this is the baddest us made car in us history
Such a beauty! 😍😍😍
Honestly nice how GM is really making a c8 for a lot of different tastes and driving characteristics
Best walk around iv seen on the new Z06.
Man i want one but ill never be able to afford one
From a newbie.... Thank you for the easy understanding. Beautiful car!

Just wait till Hennessy gets there hands on this😭🙏
They’re gonna steal parts off it
With 1000hp, how much more do you need? For Christ sake the regular C8 goes 0-60 in under 3 seconds
300mph corvette soon?
NO SH!T!!!
Exactly my same thoughts they gonna see it nothing we can do here@Doltonboy15500
Wheels alone are a massive upgrade over the garbage that came with the initial C8 model
Im not a fan of the C8, but the new ZR1 is undeniably impressive. Too bad its unattainable for most...
Thank you Corvette Team!
I think I love this car more in black 😍
Absolutely stunning & beautifull car...
Looks like a Lykan
He’s taking very fast but did he say top speed 250 MPH???
GULL wing doors and you have the PERFECT car!!!!
What if it rains? Won't water get in through the hood and all other openings?
Omg what a nice touch split window
All the chaotic C8 design is more lines, angles and doodads tacked onto it. Good god. An engineering masterpiece and a design crime.
Jesus! What a beautiful sports car!
What a beautiful Ferrari.
Hennessy F5 has 86mm turbos! The new ZR1 has 76mm turbos! The ZR1 is one tenth the price!

This one is nice , they can keep the big catalog ordered wings on the other ones
Bro. That’s the real Batmobile
I THINK THE Z06 IS A BETTER BUY IN THE LONG RUN.
FIXING ( ZR1) THE TURBOS WOULD BE WAY COSTLY.

How bout a manual transmission?
Tadge Juechter retirement, split window. This is his mic drop moment before heading into the sunset. This car is a major investment for what it stands for..
We're does spare tire go 😕
Dude, does the 2025 ZR1 have 2 versions? Wingless and big ass wings
Can't wait to see the markup on these.......😟
My love 🖤❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
I want one, but if the engine breaks what dealer am I going to take it to that has a qualified tech to work on it? 🙂
I love it!
At $180k plus...
The price is ASTRONOMICAL!
I wonder if they will sell...
Every ZR1 Corvette has sold out in the past and $180K for a car that out performs $500K Euro cars is a steal.
@@craigthescott5074 out performs? LMFAO!!!! clown!
So pretty!
What is the price for this ZR-1 !
Are those the ZR1 shoes that come with the car??
Decent power for once.
Dude the C8 is almost 500 HP that’s more that 95% of the cars on the road. And that’s a base one.
@ rtz549 Get back in Your 1992 Honda Civic and drive away Ya little Punk !
@rtz549 Drive away in Your old Honda Civic Son !
The blue trim pieces inside need to match the blue outside.
what happens when it rains and water slips to the engine?
Did he say 250mph?😮😮
Split window was only on the '63 c2 stingray.
Am I wrong or does that top come off?
215
I thought he said 250 also.
Epic Review
1060 horsepower stock is insane
Why do I feel like people are gonna crash these. Unless it has a clever traction control system, 1000 hp to the rear tires is a fuck ton lol.
There’s always going to be someone who has to crash the first ZR1
I believe Tadge alluded to management of traction till 3rd gearing to keep it planted and moving forward.
People crash Priuses with 0 HP. What’s your point.

Still no lambo doors the car would be 5x better with lambo doors
Samurai!!!!
Ya that’s awesome
So i love these C8s and all but how the heck would you even work on these? You gonna have to remove the back half of car to do anything?
Yeah imagine getting this car and trusting Cletus from the local Chevy dealership to take the whole car apart lol
@@Sloimer 😂😂
That steering wheel is bad for bidness 😂
the c9 is gonna have to have wings or a jet engine to top this
Bro. Why your hands so tiny?
This and the mustang are the best American cars
I think I will Buy Two One for Me and One for My Old Lady !
Buy 4 of them. Buy for your 2 kids as well.
Cool
My only grip is the c8s look too similar to each other. Zr1 needs a mandatory big wangggg
It does with the ztk package
Quarter mile times would be nice
Prob going to be a while it takes a few miles to break it in right.
Anyone know the price
Hasn't been released yet, however, the new Corvette build and price starts. They may have it then
More Money than You got Bub !
@@thunderbolt5354 Maybe more than I want to spend, Still wonder what the price is going to be. Bub...
"12 reasons why this is the best first car for youre child😂 (no offense i had to do it
Haha all good. But I will make that video 😈
What is funny is the Corvette E Ray might outrun this.....for 80k cheaper...I mean 1,000hp and still only 2.5 seconds 0-60?
Where in the world is any going to need or use 1000 h.p on the congested roads and highways?
When they are not congested 😂
Or the track. Not sure this would make a good everyday driver.
Front lip spoiler thing is UGLY if its not lowered to the ground.
Wow
Ducktail spoiler anyone?! 🤘🏼
Why in the world would anyone get a Z06 when this ZR1 is available? If your gonna spend that much, u might as well go the gusto & get the top dog
Drive away In Your old beatup Buick My Friend !
Rear tire/wheel sizes? You gave the front size but not the back.
make it wider and roomier inside....
Ferrari F8 killer….
This is the spec. The huge wing is hideous and makes it look like a middle schooler's wet dream.
Some new original material would be good.
Wait wait!! 250 mph top speed? Is that correct? lol wow!
I think I heard wrong my bad
Still a Chevrolet. Will be back in the shop within 1 year for uneven tire wear and a broken radio volume button.
True. But that’s better than a Euro supercar costing $5000 for maintenance.
Who's your Daddy Ford and Dodge? Rich man toys....
Jesus please let me have one
Park that thing in the rain and your screwed.
Chevy is re design the Bat-mobile
I'm in Lust
Rimac R makes 2,100hp stock. 😎
I don't believe you have to plug the Corvette in, or look for charging stations to do so. Stock
I’m sure owners of Rimac don’t need to charge in public
