All the haters will never be able to understand the smile that Corvette lovers have after driving their Vette.

[talpsisunfunny]

I've aways wanted a c5 ever since i was a kid and now I'm here saving for one...the sound of a V8 will always make me smile

[TheJayzzee]

I love that sound the ls1/ls6 produce at high revs with the right exhaust. Almost sounds like a nascar up top

[davidgibbons]

You have a three car garage and your spouse parks outside? You are a lucky man to have the whole garage to yourself.

Greetings from Russian Sakhalin island ✌️ C5 is my Dream Car. In future i'll make my dream come true. Thank you for opportunity listening that amazing sound of engine. With Best wishes, Anton ✌️

[markcrawford]

As a 04' C5 owner, I've pretty much watched your build over some time now. What awesome vision and execution. Very nicely done, as far as sound, stock stereo is perfect. With the volume off!

[JS-xwxu]

Great video Chris, you need to make this a complete series. Btw, the shot where you drove out of the garage and the one where you pulled into the gas station were perfect.

[LetsDrivePH]

This has to be the best corvette video on YouTube. 🎉

[raimovt]

OMG, the engine sound from NFS Carbon is real

[ASLackey]

Just rewatched this video and got a nice little chuckle at the end when you kinda looked at the c5 with love and appreciation for the work you've done. Then when you look back a second time. 😆

[KhyGuy]

This is so awesome to see a video with just pure sound in different driving conditions. I’m in the market for a C5 and this has definitely convinced me. Thanks!

[mikedomico]

I have an 02 coup and have had the most fun with it so far this spring. Because of your videos, I’m going to paint the cowl and clean up that area. Thanks Chris

[jessebunker]

I love my C5, it wasn't my first vette, but it is my last. It is set up just the way I want it to be. It makes me smile everytime I look at it.

[QKvox]

One of the best looking vettes with great performance and a good sound as a no price extra

[davidwatts]

You understand what the car hobby is about. There are times to just enjoy the sound. Great episode.

[markfurchtenicht]

It sounds so sweet! That got my heart pumping. Thank you for that...👍

[thomaswilson]

Chris this was absolutely THE GREATEST VIDEO you've done in the last year. Thank you soooo much. Im driving my big truck down the road just totally enjoying the sounds. Made my day. Thank you once again

[fabijan]

this will definitely be my first car i love this car

[ZOTT]

Man Chris, your car sounds great! Makes me want to get mine out tomorrow (As if I need an excuse). Great video as always. Props.

[mikesmith]

Excellent video. That's why corvette owners put up with all the downsides of owning a vette, the upsides outweigh them once you get behind the wheel.
