Why Do So Many Supercars Use Corvette Engines? Number 1 Corvette Glazer once again proving why it's a real Supercar. It may not be Exotic, but it definitely still is Super in terms of performance.

I've always considered the Corvette, Viper and Ford GT as the 3 supers from the 3 big US manufacturers

I think most people are mixing up exotic car and supercar. The C8 Corvette has supercar performance, looks, purpose, and engine placement so it should count as a supercar. Most arguments against it being a supercar are that it's common, relatively affordable, and doesn't have prestige. These are all true, but those are more qualifiers for exotic cars (which the C8 isn't) than a supercar

I love that all of these cars are in Asphalt

[mashedtomatoes]

I like to consider myself a "car guy" but not knowing any of those cars except the buggatti and henessey venom gt is humbling

[DavidBainGaming]

"Other supercars you love"

Lists a heap ive never even heard of other than the Hennessey/Mosler/SSC

[limpetarchk]

I guess people who say the Corvette isnt a real supercar are just lambo fans, because the Corvette has a huge pedigree in Motorsport.

I feel proud that I played Asphalt 8 in my teenager days and know every single car mentioned in the video. Thanks a lot for uploading such amazing videos. Keep up the good work man!

The new ZR1 is set to over 1000hp
This is hypercar level for me

The Corvette and Viper are Supercars. Cheaper than the competition and deserve recognition.

[pootmahgoots]

If it can keep up with a current supercar out of the factory, its a supercar. Doesnt need to be made by some niche brand or some huge italian conglomerate just to be considered "super".

These are all extremely obscure other than the Venom.

And we can't forget about the Callaway C4 Sledgehammer, WHICH IS A CORVETTE.

[dergunter]

these people who say "the corvette isnt a real super car" base it entirely on the price considering that power, design and things like engine layout of the corvette fit to super cars.

Which shows that the argument in reality is based entirely on "corvette not good car cause no expensive" - monkeybrain argument

The smart ones understand that the corvette is one of the better super cars considering it punches way above its price category in what you get

[shadowplayz]

The fact that you mentioned the Venom GT makes my heart warm as im a (and i hate to admit it) fanboy of that car

[planestop]

Not to mention it is used in the Holden commodore one of Australia’s biggest icons in the car industry

[xnexgax]

Who cares about ridicule? Ive got a fast car that I can afford. Thats all that matters.

[Justa_Busta]

As a car enthusiast, except the SSC and the Henessey Venom, i've never even fnitched about those other alien-named cars

[ishanebrowni]

It’s crazy that people say the c8 z06 isn’t a supercar when corvette LITERALLY says it is on their website💀

Edit: the president of GM and corvette have both confirmed that it’s a supercar, and some of you are still saying it’s not in the replies😭 I’ll trust the the opinion of corvette themselves (a literal car maker) over the opinion of consumer as to what’s considered a supercar, especially when the exact definition isn’t even known. Corvette says it’s a supercar, it’s a supercar. Simple as that. It’s a heavily debated topic anyways, and all they did was confirm it for us

[busterscrugs]

“many of those same people, several of their beloved supercars used a corvette engine” *proceeds to name a bunch of supercars 99% of people have never heard of*

[JGunit]

When I hear the words "super car", I remind myself that that was a term coined by some douche bag to make himself sound more important than me because he paid 1M for a car. They're not super cars. They're expensive cars. A corvette is a less expensive car that can do the same thing. And I think that's super.
