  Be Cautious with a C7 - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Disappointed Idaho Corvette Owner - September 28 - 5:20 pm

  The C7 is a fun car to drive but I must say my C6 had better visibility and more interior room. The quality of my C7 was really marginal which lead to my decision to sell. It was really frustrating that the cooled seats did not work, the start/stop button sometimes worked, sometimes it did not. The windshield was such poor quality that when driving into the sun all I could see where the bubbles in the glass. The memory seats only worked when they were in the mood. The seats are now so small that my 5 11" 190lb body was always sitting on the bolsters vs actually sitting in the seat. The list goes on and on. Dont get my wrong, the car was fun to drive, lots of power and handles well. It was all the things that did not work and the Chevy Dealer telling me not to bring the car back to him as he could not fix the problems with the car. I expected more from a $70,000 car. I wish Id have kept my C6!

  Its another "WARBLER" - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Devildog - September 14 - 10:03 pm

  Many owners of 2016 Chevrolet Corvettes (some 2015s) are reporting on various internet sites IE: Corvette Forum. Stingray Forum, that their new Corvettes, primarily base models with automatic transmissions produce a WARBLE type noise at exactly 1500 RPM under light throttle load , as when going up a slight grade. I am one of said owners. Go to these internet sites and look up WARBLE and even view the video / audio of the issue / complaint. Currently I understand that owners are invoking the lemon law process; GM supposedly has taken back vehicle (s). Basically there is no proven correction at this time. I too have contacted GM and like many others, I was given a "case number". Its been awhile; GM has been involved deeply; taken cars back in exchange...under pretense of studying them. However; GM IS REMAINING VERY QUIET about this serious issue. WHY ? Dealing with this corporation; their possibly covert approach to this serious matter will make GM owners uncomfortable...if they care to listen. Meanwhile, my C7 Stingray, auto has had the differential changed; a improvement is noted but the "WARBLE" goes on.................. and on.....................!

  True Motown Muscle Car! - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Will - August 11 - 11:17 am

  I have owned several BMWs and traded a Porsche Panamera for the Z51 Stingray. I had no intention of getting a Stingray. My intent was to purchase a preowned Porsche 911. As I shopped around, I started to consider the merits of getting a new Corvette versus a two year old 911. After test driving the Stingray, I was convinced that it was my choice. I loved the performance and luxury of the Panamera but the Corvette is truly a remarkable car! I have only had it about three weeks but I love it already. The performance, exhaust sound, targa top and overall design are amazing! The redesigned interior is very nice!

  By Otis - March 1 - 9:59 pm

  500 miles in and happy so far. After 500 mile oil change (due to Z-51 package) will put the hammer down and try the launch control.

  Manual or Auto? - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Taxguy - February 3 - 1:50 am

  I recently traded in my LT1 2015 with 8 speed auto for a 2016 with 7 speed manual. Ive always been a manual transmission guy with my sports cars and auto for the family sedans. I bought the automatic believing the paddle shift would simulate the manual experience. After almost two years of driving, I can say that the automatic doesnt deliver the classic sports car "feel." The downshifting is where I mostly notice the difference. The manual transmission Vette is a very different experience. I now feel that Im really driving the manual Vette, not just putting the car in Drive and aiming it. I do mostly around town driving, so rarely get the car out of fourth gear, so constant shifting is not a hassle. The transmission shifts smoothly once I got used to the stiff clutch and found the correct shift points. So, if youre shopping for a Vette, my advice is to try both transmissions before you buy. FOLLOW UP: Sprang for a 911 since this review. MSRP exactly double the Vettes. And, it is auto--the well engineered "PDK" system by Porsche. This is much closer to a manual than the Vettes, plus the Porsche quality vs Chevrolet build. However, for the money, the Vette is an outstanding value, You wont lose much when it is time to sell a C7 unless you got one loaded with overpriced bells and whistles. Example : Color matching brake calipers for $600. Get real. But the option prices on the 911 are even worse.

  Z06 - Beast - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Z-Man - December 18 - 5:29 pm

  My advice is to compare the Grand Sport against the Z06 prior to purchasing. They both have power but the Z06 is insane.

  Z51 - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Draven - August 24 - 12:12 pm

  My Torch Red Corvette Z51 Stingray is a beast. He rides like a space shuttle/jet but very smooth. Modern like a 1st class space ship. I love it.

  Z51 for life - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By LesZ51 - August 6 - 3:46 pm

  This is my 1st corvette and I absolutely love the car. The power is simply amazing! I have an M7 and when I add the active rev match and mash the petal this car moves.... The seats are comfortable and I am surprised how quickly I adjusted to sitting so low to the ground. Once your in the cabin you only notice how low you are when you pull up to a light with an SUV next to you. The sound system is great and the subwoofer makes the Windows rattle. If their was a complaint I would have to say that when the drive mode is set to "E" the steering wheel is rather loose. If you should decide to purchase a vette get ready for the admirers as at one point or another we all were.
