The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 has finally been teased after years of speculation! The C8 Corvette overall has been a massive hit in the sports car industry - even with the huge risk of going from front engine to mid engine...even though that might be the thing that is missing from the C8 Corvette ZR1. So let's talk about it!

  • When a regular C8 still selling for $90k and the Z06 selling for $120k+, I'm guessing the ZR1 is gonna be $200k+. The C8 regardless of trim is awesome but like dude... This is ridiculous.
  • @ChicagoJoe94
    $200k isn’t affordable anymore period. It’s just another supercar at that point.
  • @Mr.Mike510
    As a valet in CA, i see C8's all the time, but only 1 E-Ray
  • @xvladimir8199
    Man what a throwback with RedvsBlue clips good old days
  • @SMLYTPMovies
    I'm a C8 Stingray owner. I absolutely adore this car and I've slapped 24,000 miles on it in a year and a half. No regrets. That's why it sells so well: C8's are just that good.
  • @BlitzBlazek
    I work at a Chevy dealership so its hard not to see a C8 every day, and yet I haven't seen a single E Ray yet!
  • @Drunken_Hamster
    Bro's acting like we won't see new highs for dealership markups making what's supposed to be an American budget supercar cost as much as a v12 Lambo.
  • I got a massage yesterday, i stepped out and into the light, blinded, but graced by the howls of a Z06 getting on it. That was very nice 😂

  • @JerryCecco
    Remember, C7 460hp Grand Sport has FASTER Laguna Seca laptimes than the C8Z51
  • @DirtyD07
    I had never seen a C8Z until a guy just down the street from me showed up on day in a burgundy/wine colored Z06 with the aero pkg...drove past me on the street and just hearing that FPC LT was beautiful.

    Whenever I go out to Hampton Bays, there's this little car show at Meschutt Beach that's held there and every time I've gone to it, there must have been at least 3 to 5 C8 Corvettes. Not to mention, the number of other Corvettes that are there is insane. We're literally talking about at least one Corvette from each generation, with one of them being a C7 ZR1 in Sebring Orange which blew my mind. Last year I saw a C7 Z06 Convertible along with a 5th Gen Dodge Viper, an Aston Martin DB5, a Porsche 928, etc. You just have no idea what you're gonna see at this meet-up.

    I love the c8 but I remember part of the hype with the stingray announcement was the advertised MSRP. Once they actually came out they ended up being a lot more expensive than we initially thought. In my mind I was hoping the lower MSRP meant that eventually I could snag a used one for cheap but unfortunately it’s been the exact opposite. Can’t imagine how expensive the ZR1 will be
  • Bro first 30 sec in n the editing feels so nostalgic 😂 I love it
  • Mike and Kyle had/have two of my favorite zr1’s on YouTube. Mikes was insane.
