The seventh-generation Corvette is plenty of car, but when you add a supercharger, smart suspension and gearbox and a body that handles air like a magician, you've got something else entirely. - Розваги
"You can get an 8 speed automatic... I won't be speaking to you after that." lmao! One of the many reasons why we love Brian Cooley!!
KrAzZiiHaMzZii yes that was really funny.
"A STEEL REINFORCED JESUS BAR" I was crying 😂😂😂😂😂
Good review! Bought a new 2019 Corvette Grand Sport, with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION, and it’s a great car! Huge power, fantastic handling, and with the magnetic ride control, the car goes from track stiff to cruising smooth in an instant. My wife even asks when we can go for drives in the Grand Sport, and that rarely happens with my NSX. Buy one, if at all possible, life is short.
Just bought this car today!
*Wakes up from a dream
Congrats dude :-)
Its attainable, i bought 3
Dreams are only altered states of reality. Dream on.
Nigel D your dreams are never to good to be true ! Just remember that
Just bought a 2016 zo6 with the zo7 package and loaded. Paid $74k, The guy before me paid $105k for it and sold it with just 2300 miles. It's cherry!!!
Just bought mine today, paid 70K, black on black with carbon fiber package, it looks sinister lol
dont knock the auto paddle shift. dont talk to me but the 8spd auto paddle shift keeps me driving. i cant shift a standard because of injuries in vietnam. the auto shifts like a standard with the paddles and i love it. ask corvette racing what they use?
i drove over 8,000 miles the first three weeks last november with 29.9mpg. this was on inter states, state rdd, county rds and even 100 miles on gravel. and i always gey 17.5 to 21.1 around the town. better than gm says.
my 08 c6 Z51 was grest but i wouldnt go back. i love my 15 Z06 coupe. what a car. it is so comfortable during my long trip i only stopped for coffee, bathroom breaks and to feed rubi, my cat. i would sleep a couple hours here or there in the vette, no motels. i have constant nerve pain. started in vietnam in 68 and after 7 surgeries has only gotten worse but when we're in our Z06 i have never had more pain, one comfortable car.
thanks for the video, very good.
Thank your for the sensible comment!!!! So distasteful when i come across people that knock the auto! As i tell all people, its preference!
Thank you for your service Howard! Why don't we say that more often people?
U R AWESOME!
Howard Young frente d bocho
Thank you for your service sir. I absolutely love these cars and when I can afford one I will be right there with ya! Enjoy the car sir

Cooley and a Supercharged V8. Today is a good day.
said icecube
Wow!! I haven't been much of a vette guy but after watching this I'm sold!! if only i had the money
Just bought my z06 at 23. Love it
I watched this before, but here I am watching it again just bc Cooley.
Gay!
Kaiser DO NOT insult him..he might just blow himself up.... :P
Just bought one of these last summer. Now I can't wait until next summer to get it back on the road. Awesome ride.
this is the corvette I know and love
Not that I could ever afford this Vette, but thanks for adding the specs us Europeans are used to! All hail Cooley.
The Z06 sounds amazing.
+Xtr3amGam3R mustang gt350 sounds better
+kingwindie Can't really agree with you on that...
***** lol me neither
I can never hear the gt350. It's always too small in my rear view mirror to be able to hear it.
Yoo Jastle lmao best comment ever😂
Actually the 6.2 liter LT4 is actually very small in fact it will fit inside the dimensions of a 4.4 liter BMW v8 the small block chevy is a very small power dense motor.
I was just starting to leave a comment very much like yours, so I decided to like yours instead! LOL It is so true, externally the small block is very small, the center of gravity is very low (the cam is in the block, not the heads), the engine has fewer moving parts than most which improves reliability and for the power they produce they get very good fuel economy! You just can't beat a Chevy small block!
same concept as the Porsche flat six take a simple engine and perfect it over 50 years that is why the corvette and Porsche are the top 2 sports cars
+DustinCorvetteZr1 actually the lt4 is a brand new engine with many things not found on other engines. google it. also a good utube video on the engine. sweet.
Exactly if it ain't broke don't fix it.
Yeah the only thing "big" about the Chevy V8's is their displacement the actual engine itself is way smaller than people think it is. Chevy-small blocks don't just add power they are usually a power/weight upgrade for anything you swap them into.
I ordered mine Even tho I live In Thailand and the prices are basically triple what it is in USA. But this car is worth it.
"You can get an 8 speed automatic... I wont be speaking to you after that." lol You have to love cooley!
I have an almost identical '19 Z06 that's for sale. Same color, same wheels, same trans, data recorder, sports seats, etc., and with the ClearBra, it stickered for just under $90k. This video helped me make my buying decision, and I've loved and pampered this car, but it's time to move on.
I like your video bro, but if you ever slam the hood on a vet like that again. I will find you.
these new vetts changed the way i think about the corvette from take it or leave it to hell yes 2013 and up models.saw a new black zo6 go buy on the highway the other day, damn thing was just as wide as the passing lane, was doing about 80 mph looked like it was just loafing around and bored lol, could just imagine how fast that thing could move out on the highway if it wanted too,just needs wings lol,awesome.
if I had the money.... I would buy one
As would I, seeing as though low mileage c7s arent too much cheaper.
Stop watching videos and go get the $$$$$
+ramont booker $80k isn't that much for a corvette. 18 months of "work" for me.
i didnt have the money. my bank let me have it on my good credit 768. i had to use a credit card to pay $2000's down.
For the money. Best car in the world. Has been for years.
Just want to say, good job and good video. I've never seen any of your videos before, but I appreciate the no-nonsense educated, but not over the top opinions, and a good blend of some novel (from my perspective at least) technological explanation. To be honest, I enjoyed this more than many of the other C7 Z06 review vids out there. Driving fast and crazy reactions at the limit are great, but some explanation of how, what, and why changes have been made are super interesting to learn.
Thanks for the 6 minutes!
Just want to add, I also think it's well-stated and nice to note that a blend of technology (big touchscreens, etc) as well as knobs for tactile feel are right on the money. Good to hear that everyone's not throwing tactile feel out the window.
I love the detailed info. Keep it up!
Good review on a fantastic car :D!!! thanks Cooley!!!
Thank you! Thank you for adding the other units for performance, consumption and torque! I hate having to convert US numbers to international ones. Great review as well, missed Cooley!
What a car. What a review
More vids Brian! More vids!
New subber. Loved the video.
this is an amazing car...
finally americans are making more technological cars.
Yeah, but with factory issues.
my dream car😍😍
Bought the white one yesterday. It drives smooth. but mine is automatic
I don't get the problem with automatic. Why would you shift if the car now shifts faster for you?
True that. Mine really gives a smooth shift even at the sloppy six.
Damn bro Congrats for your new car... How much was it? I'm gonna buy a car under 100k...
Ferdous Noel Mine was 115,000 canadian dollars plus 13% HST. my dealer did the licensing for free though.
Mine shifts faster than I ever could.
Man!!! I wish I could afford that car.
How do you you get the Spotify app on your dash screen?
Cooley, ya gotta get the z07 pkg. the carbon ceramic brakes and down force are insane. Don't cheap out when ordering.
my 15 Z06 has good downforce too. not z07package. 70 laps with 154+ mph on straighr at the glen. ran out of room. i had alot of peddle left. and even the first turn my Z06 never wiggled never slipped. great downforce and handling
Badass!!
Am i the only one who wants a auto or dual clutch as a daily and a manual on the track or on a long empty road?
COOLEY
Traduzir para o idioma Português,.Valor?Obrigado.
that is a great price for the type of vehicle
lol this guy is hilarious
You would think a "professional" channel like this would know how to deinterlace their videos...
Show
might trade it in for my 14 vette
You cannot shift faster than the paddle. The Paddle auto is faster. You can shift with both hands on the wheel. It is superior to the manual in every way. So turn in the manual shifter along with your rotary phone.
lol, only someone who doesn't drive stick would say something like that. That's why it's called a MAN-ual. Even the host in the video said he wouldn't talk to you if you got an automatic.
But you like to grab that shaft in your manly hand, don't ya, mr pajamas.
Awesome car and the haters :-)
It doesn't make sense. Unless you live on a racetrack, where could you drive this car? I was pulled over 9 times in my 2016 Maserati in 2 months after acquiring it in December. Imagine if I had this Z06? I'd be in jail....
mine is a daily driver.
Yoo Jastle It's a cop magnet...just like my car is.
mine too. No pull overs, no tickets. Might be the pilot...
THE SOOTHSAYER I'm way old, so they must be giving me a pass.....
Yoo Jastle Try driving it in sport or race mode and the cops will follow you everywhere just looking for an opportunity to ticket you.
think I'd rather spend 54 grand on a base stingray, and just add a supercharger on it and have it tuned nicely. you'd have a monster of a car for less than 65 grand, and one that was factory limited at. 185mph like this car is.....I'm a dragstrip and top speed kinda guy, not a track racer, so all the little scoops and vents added on don't interest me as much....just good brakes will do
+jrvbamafan1 it's not limited. It's aerodynamically limityed on the z07, but the rest will keep going
👍
guys I cant make up my mind Z07 or GTR ?
I guess it depends on your budget.
GTR will bore you after a few months. Mine did. This, never.
It's going to be interesting when they make this car a Mid-engine
How’d u kno 🤔
טוב
I smashed Cooley in a heartbeat !!!hmmm
And so ends the na z06 tradition smh, the really couldn’t drop the super charger and just squeeze out 605? Honestly that’s how you know they probably never interested to make a c7 zr1 (shrugs) I don’t know .
your cool Mr coolie I'm buying car it's so worth it with out breaking bank
The best bang for buck sports car period! Under a 100 grand and smoke everyone around you
The only thing BIG is that NOSE. Those glasses aren't hiding anything buddy, we see that beak.
@5:05 69 hahahahah
first !!!
why isn't this video in 1080p60 while other shit review are60fps
Good catch, it still looks good. But good catch.
Liostick red seats,,,Yuck! How about some deep maroon? Only knock I have on it!
+A.F. Spataro GM has a new interior color called Spice Red. It maybe the color for you? I believe the interior shown in the video is Adrenaline Red. I have the Adrenaline Red and have noticed that it does not photo well. So, your best bet is to view these interior colors in person.
they dont just come in red??????order different color
Europeans have super car - better than the Chevy Corvette ..
A Polish engineer to the small Peugeot 207 interceded engine of the Lamborghini ..
seen on UA-cam :
Peugeot 207 swap v10
Peugeot 207/Lambo
NOT
Here's a clue: Fiats are junk. Fiat is ruining Chrysler....and the only Euro's 'better' than a Corvette cost four times as much.
Fiat saved your weak US auto industry, which is not competitive on the world market - cars Crysler no one in Europe is not buying it because it scrap and shit ..
Your American car giants have fallen - Detroit looks like a ghost town ..
European cars are much better made, more reliable and less burdensome for the environment and more economical ..
Europe does not need engines with a capacity of up to 7 liters of gasoline consuming sea and poisonous environment ..
I still don't understand that ugly front bumper. nothing sporty about that
wannabe, get a job
Apple carplay, ewww. it ruins the Corvette
Shaddup
Don't worry, its got Android Auto.
This is one hideous looking car.
Don't you think hideous is a little to harsh.
Taste is subjective and your entitled to your opinion. I do wonder what you feel is a good looking car.
+Auli Khoironi Nothing wrong with a 'boxy' muscle car...
+Auli Khoironi I never said there was. I'm a fan of the C7 and I love the Z06 with the Z07 package.
It's an 80k car that puts 150k cars to shame.
And a used GTR for $50k will put this $80k car to shame, your point? And I bet you anything the $150k will be higher quality than this thing.
