Drove my new C8 130 KM home this morning. I took as many back winding roads as I could find. It was exhilarating!!
As I have mentioned before I haven't had a C7 so I can only compare it to my C6 Z06. It is a much more comfortable ride.
Neither car has magnetic ride but the C8 is like sitting in an armchair and just steering. Vastly improved over the bumps and railroad tracks.
I was ready for an automatic and the DTC is incredible in it's shifting. The HP is in the same range but the C8 doesn't leap forward when it
hits 2nd gear like the manual does, I kinda missed that. The Z06 2nd gear is very quick from about 30 to 100 kph. I am glad I kept the Z06
as it will be nice to feel that torque when I take it out in 2nd gear. The manual and the auto are definitely very different rides.
The fit and finish of the C8 is impeccable, all my panels fit as they should.
As many have mentioned before me the audio system is superb, even though I usually only listen to 60s on 6!! lol
I have the 3LT and it is magnificent. Corvette interiors used to be their weakest link, but this one is stunning.
I am very pleased with the C8 and can't wait to put more miles on the odometer.
