I do not know if this is true or not I was at a car show Sunday and talked to a guy that is the service manager at a Chevy dealer and has owned a bunch of vettes. Somehow he said got to drive a C8 at a corporate thing for Chevy people. He currently has a C7 Z06 and he said the C8 felt easily as...

Ok the numbers are out the C8 11.3sec at 121mph. That's faster than a C7 Z06 imagine a new Z06 or ZR1. So now what is the rational given the price and performance of a C8 to go with a GT350 or ZL1. The GT500 better be a beast.

You need to insure through a specialty ins not your standard carrier. I have three cars with stated values, 2 with 700+hp and includes allowing my 21 year old son and 23 year old daughter to drive them for about $2500 per year. If kids were not on would be $100 less. I use American Modern

I have a 99 Roush that I bought new in 99. It is supercharged blah ,blah,blah. Whenever I would drive it everybody was always challenging me on the road always never ended. In 16 I bought a 16 GT I almost never get challenged. In one day I would get more challenges with the 99 than I've gotten...

I was at a huge Cars and Coffee yesterday. There were a couple Supras on display on the way home on a main highway I came upon one that had been there. I was in my 02 Z06 my son was behind me in my 16 GT. As I got up on him he ran, I was glued to his bumper my son blew by both of us and I was...

Thank you

These two cars could not be more different but given their performance and price they will now be compared. The Ford old school in styling reminiscent of the 69-70 fastback and the C8 futuristic super car look. Only time will tell how one effects the sales of the other. Here are some...

The meaning of material things is certainly not lost on this guy several years ago I laid dead on an operating table brought back and in a coma for 7 days. With that lesson I also learned that life is short and we never know how short. If those cars are used like mine spending time with my wife...

Are there going to be any changes to the GT350 for 2020. I have been searching and it seems it will be pretty much the same as the 19 model, I also read that it was getting somethings from the GT500. Anybody know what's up.

I just spoke to a customer of mine who said he did not care if the C8 or GT500 was better he ordered one of each. Just about 4 months ago he bought a Ford GT and a C7. That is living.

If your in Phila you should be familiar with Kerbeck they are always the lowest prices on vettes. In 16 I had a C7 ordered from there but I did not take it because my knees hit the dash in a C7. I was going to live with it but at the last moment thought it not too bright to buy a car I could not...

I don't think dealers especially Kerbeck are going to mark them up. Kinda defeats the point of being under 60K.

Last night I read that the GT350 will cost more than the GT500 and less will be made. Can any 350 experts confirm or debunk this. Not sure if they referring to the R or not.

C8 or GT 500

What does everybody think the real 1/4 mile #s will be for the C8 and the GT500. Let's see who gets the closest. Also Trap speed.

I just can't believe the power these cars are making today. Back in the day if a car ran a mid 13 to 14 it was fast. How things have changed. I can't believe insurance co aren't having problems with insuring these cars.

How accurate do you guys think quarter mile calculators are? For the GT500 I used 4425 lb + 760 horsepower it calculated a 10.45 quarter mile time. For the C8 I used 3800 lb and 500 horsepower and it calculated and 11.50 quarter mile time. I assumed a 200lb driver. Seems right for the GT500 but...

All this talk about ZL1/1LE got me curious so I called the dealer to set up a test drive. I have driven a bunch of 350's and a C7 and a C7 Z06 so I want to see how it compares, but I thought it was already announced that the Camaro was going away after 2023 is that not a done deal.

When it comes to buying a car emotion and the subjective side comes into play to a great extent. If you like something you naturally try to justify it, just human nature. I try to limit the emotion when buying a car but very hard to do. When I bought my 99 Roush in 99 I had an 96 vette...

The S550 is a great looking car and in time I think it will be known as one of the best looking Mustangs ever. I can't really judge the C8 without seeing it in person but from pictures it looks great also. I think I prefer the muscle car look over the exotic.
