Overview & Reviews

The 2008 Chevrolet Corvette receives more power, additional standard features (including OnStar, satellite radio and auto-dimming mirrors) and refinements to the steering, transmissions and interior. A 427 Limited Edition Z06 joins the 'Vette family midway through the model year.

• Exotic-car performance for short money, daily-driver functionality, excellent ergonomics.

• Base interior lacks pizzazz compared to rivals, ultra-performance Z06 looks too much like the standard Corvette.

  2008 4LT Jetstream Blue Coupe - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By nhnascar - November 6 - 12:14 pm

  The all "new" 2008 Corvette is exactly that! From a new Jetstream Blue exterior, a revamped upscale interior, 36HP increase, and a new exhast system the new feature enhancements are extraordinary. The new Jetstream Blue exterior really stands out in the crowd. The 4LT interior (Linen & Ebony) finally puts Corvette in the luxury realm. The 436 HP puts the Vette way above any other car in the price range. The optional Z06 style butterfly exhaust makes the car really sound like a Vette should right from the start. I added an optional remote that lets me control the exhaust butterfly. I owned a 2004 C5 prior to this C6 and was completely blown away at how much better this car is over my C5.

  2008 C6 - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette

  Love my new 2008 Coupe. I traded my 04 Z06 Commemorative for it and haven’t looked back. This car is a dream to drive, a computer on wheels.

  Amazing Z06 - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Stevie - September 5 - 8:15 am

  Did the museum delivery. It was amazing. People were great. Was very interesting seeing the manufacturing. Really appreciated the peoples commitment to the Corvette. The car is great. Very tight. My 10 year old did the best one word explanation of the car calling it "sick"

  Rocket ship! - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Scott - September 1 - 11:04 am

  I love this new Vette! It is a rocket ship and has way more power than anything in the same price class and even as fast as much more expensive cars like the Porsche 911 S. It does not handle as well as the German sports cars like Porsche or BMW, but it has gobs of power. I was doing 90 in 3rd gear! Amazing design and much better than the 2006 model. Now if Chevy can improve the poor handling it would be the ultimate sports car!

  Good God! - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Bouree - August 27 - 10:10 pm

  I had a Honda for transportation and a Harley for fun. My father had just bought an 04 convertible and I had my first drive in it two weeks ago. I got the bug. I test drove an 07 and didnt feel much more power than the 04. Plus the interior was cheesy. Drove the 08 LT1 and and when I punched it the first time, an involuntary expletive burst out of my mouth. I could not believe that this car was street legal. The LS3 engine is night and day from the LS2. Plus, the interior was much nicer. I couldnt wait for an LT2 or 3 and bought it that day. Run, dont walk to the dealership and get one of these. You wont regret it.

  New owner experience - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By initial skeptic - August 25 - 1:36 am

  For years, Ive stayed away from the Vette because of poor quality interior and poor feedback response. Ive owned a S2000, 350z (modified twin turbo), Audi S4, and Lexus SC430. I can honestly say Im impressed with every aspect of the care especially the great handling and daily livability. Feedback response is not as crisp as the S2000, but its good enough to instill confidence. The interior is so much better now, it feels like a luxury sports car (on-star, turn-by- turn navigation, radio frequency keyless entry/start, coach-like leather, and tactile sensation of each dial/button, phone). Every day, I find something more to like and Im a hard person to please when it comes to details

  2008 ZO6 - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette
  By kevin - August 17 - 9:19 pm

  The acceleration is exhilerating, especially when the 2 valves in the exhaust opens. It is like afterburners in a jet. The tight handling is unbelieveable. It sticks to the road like glue and comes out of curves smooth as silk. When driving this car all worries of the day seem to disappear.
