2020 C8 Corvette Production Delayed (Official Update)

The 2020 C8 Corvette has been delayed until February 2020. The UAW (United Auto Workers) Labor Strike has delayed production of the 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvette until Feb 2020. C7’s need to wrap production and then GM can move onto producing the C8’s. The Bowling Green assembly plant also needs additional time to hire and train a 2nd shift and retool its facilities.

Who all is at Sema 2019 right now in Vegas?

Have you visited the National Corvette Museum or the Bowling Green Corvette Factory in Bowling Green Kentucky yet?

Here is a nice assortment of 2020 C8 Corvettes at the National Corvette Museum. Which 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvette is your favorite?

Last video: Watch this 2020 C8 Corvette high quality c8 interior review. I was happy to get up close and personal with several 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvettes at the Bowling Green Kentucky National Corvette Museum. The interior is unique on the 2020 C8 and I do a nice comparison to the C7 interior. C8 Startup and C8 Exhaust clip at the beginning was from footage in the next video I will be posting.

I want to see a C8.R or C8 Convertible

The 2020 C8 Corvette by Chevrolet has a Tremec 8 speed dual clutch transmission or 8 speed DCT. The engine is a mid-engine LT2 6.2L Small Block V8 with 485hp/369 when equipped with performance exhaust and for torque: 470 lb/ft.

The C8 exhaust sounds great!
Aside from the C8, what do you guys think about the Toyota Supra (that Stradman and TJ Hunt) have bought. do you think the Supra is a good investment? The Stradman and TJ Hunt have already made some epic content with it. What about the Ford Mustang GT500. Would that be a cool car to see on my channel?
What do you think about StreetSpeed717 and his corvette content. Are corvette ZR1's still cool? Shmee150 thinks so.

I can't wait until I hopefully get a press car and can do a full review on the 2020 C8 Corvette. I'd love to see the C8 Z06 when that comes out and also see the C8 Convertible for the first time as well. I think the C8 Convertible will be an interesting car.

My last video was an exclusive look at a 2020 C8 Chevrolet Corvette in the wild. This 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Mid-Engine C8 was black with yellow brake calipers and yellow stitching and seat belts. We searched the Corvette Museum and the Corvette Track, but had no luck. We eventually spotted the 2020 C8 when I was about to head back to Nashville, Tennessee.

It was surreal seeing it in person and I am so happy we found one in the wild. The interior of the corvette c8 is so unique with the square steering wheel and the cockpit design of the interior. The Mid-Engine had plenty of carbon fiber options and the mid engine design is something completely new to corvette. The C8 pricing starts at $59,995 and gives you 490 horsepower! The Z51 package is an extra $5,000. 3LT package is the highest.

My dad currently has a 2015 Corvette C7 Z06 and I think we are going to wait until the new C8 Z06 comes out to buy that car then. The C8 Z51 is pretty fast too though... or so I hear!

I can't believe you've actually read this far -wow!! Thank you for your support

Any idea when the hardtop convertible will go into production? Thats what I am ordering with the Z51 package LT2 in Tangent orange. Can hardly wait. Only problem is I live in Canada and we usually are at the bottom of the list for getting anything from the States. I've already put down an 80 K deposit for it. Dealerships here only get a small allotment of Corvettes every quarter I believe .

Thanks for the update man. I am patiently waiting for my build and had put an allocation in a few months back for a 2LT coupe Z51. If you have a convertible I hear production is going into summer which is crazy.

[bladerunner]

you can rest assured that gm will not be passing out press cars to reviewers with a history of criticizing gm products; warranted or not.

This is the Final Cut Pro support dude. Just checking in on your bro. Keep the dope content flowing. 💪🏾

Finally a car that tells the passenger, "you have no rights to the radio, it's on the driver's side" lol

[kabar]

ya it sucks. but I already was thinking I'd get min in November. so truly it doesnt matter. I ordered 1lt Elkhart lake blue with a few options. 62k

[bluejayrover]

Long Beach Red c8 ZR1 3LT on order from dealer. Last I heard 2 months ago, they expected order to be confirmed in January for a late March build. I’m #2 on their list. Now it will be mid to late summer I bet

[markjmaxwell]

Being upbeat on the GM has done a few tweaks and made the car better value.
Good things come to those who wait.
Would rather have a reliable supercar that doesn't break down, and cost a fortune to maintain, than an unreliable exotic.

Black spoiler on red corvette with black wheels black badging black mirrors and black top with natural tan leather...yeah! #tuff

[DroneWorldbelo]

That chair is fairly small for you wouldn’t you say?

I hate to hear about the delay. Chevy better up the allocation numbers for that nonsense. No one is ordering c7s now, and dealerships have tons of c7 inventory they can't unload. People don't want to get c8s in Aug and lose 8 months of depreciation. I will cancel my order of its to late for a 2021 and I'm sure a lot of other people will feel the same way. Allocations were to low as it was. If dealers can sell the cars then it's GMs responsibility to produce them even if it means 3 shifts around the clock.

[Sage_TheAmericanPitBullTerrier]

I rather the air scoop that goes over the door and quarter panel be the same color as the car instead of black

[kabar]

one question for ta. are all c8 getting a spoiler?

[willdavis]

Lost me at "my dad's C7"

[michaeljabczynski]

Winner, Winner, sweet chicken dinner!!!

Hate the taper of the back end. Hate the design of the exhausts, looks like a need for speed ricer tune. Ugliest steering wheel I've ever seen. Hopefully the aftermarket can fix all these issues.
