3 months into ownership of my 2023 Corvette Z06!! We finally flew back to Arizona to spend some time with the Z06, took it on a scenic drive, put @DrivenByJordan behind the wheel and hit 1,500 miles! The more I drive this car, the more I love it. Absolutely epic in essentially every way (except for MPGs, but who cares). Enjoy this video and make sure you check out all the other Z06 content on the channel!

C8 Pro tip: Set My Mode to have the loudest engine/exhaust setting, when you turn off your car in My Mode it will stay in My Mode when you turn it on. So the startup or remote start will be on the loudest engine/exhaust setting.

Turning off the C8 in any other mode will automatically set to Tour mode during startup which has the valve closed by default.

Source: I have a 23’ C8 myself

Happy cold starts! 😃

Chevrolet really hit this one out of the park! Congrats and enjoy!

For 6 months I’ve worked in the service department of a Chevrolet dealership as a car runner and shuttle driver. A few weeks ago I got to move a C8 about 50 feet up near the shop door. I’m 5’ 11” tall and slender. It’s NOT a fun car to get into but it’s certainly different. If only I could be lucky enough to deliver one or pick one up from a customer but I’m not going to bet on it happening.

I love it. I want one. I'm an old guy. I owned the best naturally aspirated corvette back in the day. A 1991 ZR-1. It was brought up to around 500 HP by Haibeck Automotive Technology. The thing ripped up to almost 8, 000 RPM. Of course it was a C4 with its problems, but man was it a fun car. NA is cool, but it seems all of my cars are boosted now. 2011 CTS-V, 2013 Audi S5, and a 2007 Chevy 2500 Duramax truck. Thanks for the video!

The Corvette C8 Z06 is more than just a car; it's a symphony on wheels. With its naturally aspirated 5.5-liter V8 flat-plane crank, every press of the accelerator unleashes a melody of pure power. At 670 horsepower, this masterpiece sings like no other, resonating through the soul of every driver who dares to experience its raw, untamed potential. Each note from the exhaust is a reminder that the Corvette C8 Z06 is not just about speed—it's about the art of performance, where engineering and passion collide in perfect harmony.

Great video, man the Z06 looks/sounds so nice!

[ChefMarcCollins]

There’s a video no one has done and I’m surprised it hasn’t been. You own both American Flat Plane V8’s. Do a comparison video on both the 350R and the Z06. I know it’s not an apples to apples comparison but I’d be interested in what you like one over the other. Engine vs Engine. Manual vs automatic. Not necessarily interior vs interior. Obviously the C8 is a much more expensive car and more loaded with goodies compared to a 350R but it would be nice to see a comparison from someone who owns both. Just a thought. And congrats on all your success post Vehicle Virgins. It’s been great to see how far your channel has gone.

EddieX,

Nice video!

I see you tearing up my home canyon carving route 88..

It’s a wonderful setup to experience real G-forces and turn in.

I recently posted a POV drive of this exact route a few weeks back in my SS1LE.

Good times!

Nice video. Your friend sums it up really well, hard to use its full potential on the street. It needs a track.

[jowga]

I'm going to love the clicks of those paddle shifters

[buildingAbiz]

You picked the PERFECT color combination for your Z06 😍

[thomasangelo]

Just pick mine up an amazing car awesome Good luck with her

[hb]

You have a beautiful car Eddie!
I own 2 C8 Z06 and was wondering if you would entertain possibly meeting up and taking our cars to the track once you fully break yours in. I’m trying to make my own YouTube channel currently and think it would be an amazing first video with our cars together! Let me know what you think.

[rayestefania]

This would be the ultimate sports car to own! Maybe one day I’ll actually be able to get one. I do not like the looks of the regular C8 but this wide body looks sick!

[CrispWheels]

As an R8 v10 owner, Gallardo, and a C7 Z06 owner, I can't wait to try out the C8 Z06. I would love to take the new Z06 on a Bay to LA cruise.

[mitchellcobb]

I'm glad yours works. Mine won't shift, and the gm techs keep telling me it's because it's a love the car otherwise tho 👌

[Srirachaa]

Y’all should take that to the top of mount Lemmon if you haven’t. Great windy scenic road in Tucson.

[Aquineas]

First time seeing your channel. It didn't suck.

[zvan]

That clicking of the paddles annoys me, otherwise the Z06 is awesome. I am down the list at MM for one, who knows if I will ever see it. Luckily I have a 718 GT4 with MCS 2-way dampers until when/if my name comes up.
