I just bought my first Vette. 08, auto, z51, 3lt. It makes me happy, after a long, stressful day at work. If your in the fence about a Vette. Do it, because life is short, be happy.

Jeez, for a low view video. This is really good

Just saw your video, thanks for the review. I just purchased my 2007 c6 base, atomic orange with the extra top. It has 73000 on the clock, it's been serviced on by the dealership, been garage kept with car cover. It had new michelin tires, Harmonic balancer, brakes, and shift cable has been replaced. I was 13 years when I saw my first corvette close up, and dreamed for one every since. At 73, my dream has been fulfilled. I did change the air and cabin filters. The original paint is showroom finished. I too will keep in garage. Thanks again.

1. Fuel smell with full tank. Ring around drivers side pump is cracked. Auto trans requires everything to be dropped to change. $2500+ if a dealer does it. 2. Harmonic balancer 3. auto shift cable 4. Manual only, clutch hangs on high rpm fun, either air in the system, clutch fluid contaminated, or pressure plate design flaw. 5. Cracked crazed headlights can be prevented with PPF 6. Steering column bearing and angle sensor out of position. The telescoping can seize and then it rips everything out of place when you use it. This can cause active handling errors and the car to erroneously brake one wheel. 7. No clock on the nav screen, this is a simple fix from the forums 8. Clutch master cylinder, the end can pop off and leave you with no clutch. Updated master will have a black reservoir. 9. LS7, avoid unless you spend $$$$ for aftermarket heads. They will drop valves , not a matter of if but when. I think I got everything

I've always loved corvettes, I was looking into buying a c5 but now I'm kind of falling in love with the c6 version!

Just purchased a 07 Coupe in Velocity yellow/Gray interior AT with paddle shifters, 3LT, polished aluminum wheels, magnetic ride, and roof package for $34,000.....new Goodyear Eagle F1's, new battery and hood release cable....perfect paint and interior with only 6,750 miles.....never seen rain.....

I've have had an 07 for 13 years, LeMans Blue Metallic, Black Interior with 6 speed manual, Mag Ride, Z51 goodies, both tops, an exhaust that'll let you know it means business, and have loved every mile now at 53k on the clock. I do have to disagree on the ride though. Had a C5 I sold for the 07 and it was 1200 miles away. Flew up to get it and the drive back was enjoyable, and found *very* comfortable. Even after 8-9 hours on the road, there was no fatigue, didn't feel cramped, and always turned around walking away from it, with permagrin going on. I really don't have many complaints about this car at all. Was in the dealership only once for a misfire code and hasn't been back anywhere for any problems. I'm not a fan of the C7, and certainly not the C8 yet, so I'll keep on driving mine making sure to give the Corvette wave to others I see along the way!

Every man around this golden age should have a muscle car like this. Well done, sir.

Great video I just got a 2005 C6 yesterday and am loving it, has 80k miles but was worth the lower price coming with reliability of the LS2

My dad got me a 2007 C6 in silver and I was so shocked!

I have a 2005 C6, convertible, absolutely love this car , it was a surprise birthday gift from my daughter, son in law and wife, wanted another for a very long time, just couldn’t get myself to pull the trigger so they did it for me

One of the most informative videos I've found on this car, thanks!

Thoroughly enjoyed this review. Thanks for covering this Corvette!

I have been looking for a used vette. This is an excellent review. And we are on the same page I've been looking at 2008's for extra 50 horses. I thank you for this review.

Such a solid review all around from the quality of video & audio to showing the little things like how to take the top off. Absolutely loved it & learned a lot. Thanks so much! You earned a subscription from me

Awesome review...I also have a 2007 ...loving every minute of it...thanks !!!

Great quality and a great review. Really appreciate the different camera angles and voice overs you've done here

Great review! Looking forward to More C6 vids, new subscriber here. I really love The C6 Grand Sport (2012-13 manual, those model years have upgraded seats from the factory). That’s my ultimate Corvette. The exterior lines on the C6 to me are the best, especially from the rear with the GS wide body. 2nd choice is a C5 Z06. Unfortunately I don’t have the extra cash flow now to buy one so I watch vids like yours to get me amped up !! My goal is to get either one when i retire in about five years. I’m 56 now and I’m also a big golfer. That 22 cubic feet on the C6 hatch back sounds terrific !

Great review and a very helpful one as well👍cheers from new subs from over the pond in northern most part of Europe

Great video Tom! You’re a true corvette fan. I had an 07 and now I have an 87 C4. Good move getting an 07.

Awesome review, I learned a lot from this video to help me choose my c6 corvette. Thank you

I have basically the same car. It has the LT3 package. I was under the opinion that the power passenger side seat was part of that package as I see many without a passenger side power seat. I removed the cd player and installed a Kenwood double din touch screen with wireless android auto because I need voice over music for Waze and also installed a r3 radar detector under the mirror and neatly powered by the mirror wiring. We find it quite comfortable and the last 1000 mile road trip we got 28 mpg with the best mileage at 85 mph. The car is slightly modified, no cats, headers and exhaust,ram air induction and a mild cam. Also the Kenwood had camera ports. We installed one camera tucked in the nose so we wouldn't hit the parking curbs, it works great.

A really helpful, concise and entertaining informational video, deserves much more views. Very well structured and put together

Excellent review! Looking for the right C6 when I see it and this helps.

what a very nice showing review, nice to see the aspects most people dont show.....

Picking up my 08 Z51 on Tuesday! Can't wait.

Keep up the good work. This is a very good video and I can tell you did your research. 👍

I bought my '06 this year in March. $12,000. 😃 Great car. LeMans Blue with a 6-manual. I've upgraded to drilled rotors & red calipers, added rear Wicker Bill, front splitter, lowered it a bit, and went 19/20 on the wheels. Love the car, but I'll sell it next year to upgrade.

Awesome video Tom! Thank you so much! I helped me a lot as I am searching for a C6. Take care! 😄😉

Surprised this doesn’t have more credit. This is a really informative video. I really appreciate the video, going to a dealer tomorrow to look at a C6. This helped a lot! Hope your channel grows. You do a great job!

Can’t wait to get mine, wish me luck!! 🍀

I recently sold my purchased new 2008 c6 corvette z51 manual with 143k and the car was extremely reliable and looked great. I sold it for 11 grand and the young man who bought the car was very happy. I sold the car because My c8 z51 came in. I highly recommend corvettes preowned based off of my experience with how reliable this car was. In the entire life of the car I only spent 6 grand in repairs at the dealer. I had the car proactively serviced and believe it could have gone to 300k miles. Just a fabulous car. I love my new c8 which I will daily drive my previous corvettes. Btw no accidents and I had 19/20 c7 z51 black wheels and michelin tires. The car had a HEadsup display too. Just a great car. I just fell in love with the rear mid engine and only have a two car garage so the c6 had to go. Fun video here and my recommendation is buy c6 z51 with higher mileage so the purchase price isnt quite so high all based off my personal experience. .

Great n much very helpful video for my C6 purchase this month. 🤙

Great video! Very informative for new buyers!

Nice review! Informative and to the point

That’s one of the nicest car reviews I’ve seen. Should make another video about reliability since you didn’t include it in this one

Excellent review, very informative. Thank you.

Shopping for a C6. Lots of good info.

Great video, I like you was chasing a color.. Mine was 08 LT3 Atomic Orange. Got it with the two tops, dual exhaust, and the LS3 . 30,000 miles on it and very happy with it. Great cars.

You are about to blow up I’m surprised that such a high quality video and story telling has views (relative) to other channels. Keep it up!!!

This is so in depth I feel like I wont even need the owners manual lol awesome video

Fantastic review. I don’t know what you do for a living but this honest adult review might point to a new career 👍😊

The only color I'd get other than black. Gorgeous Vette! Very informative video, thanks!

great vid. Very informative. I love the blue. Keep em coming. I am in Michigan also, up by Saginaw. PS - I have a 2005 C6 Lingenfelter Convertible. It has 32,00 miles on it, Magnetic Red, 560hp, etc.. All options including Magnetic suspension and Sport seats with adjustable bolsters, Awesome Car

Great video! I have a 1987 c4 corvette and i love it! Though i want to save up and buy a c6 in the next year or 2, the c6 is my dream car.

Don’t “drop in” the targa top because just like the hood, if you drop them into lock down they will eventually develop cracks in the fiberglass.

Exceptional video and very informative for someone looking to buy a pre owned corvette! 👍🏼

Awesome video man love the content!!!

Very good content Tom, Thankyou for this.

Hi Tom, great video! I'm considering a C6 for my next purchase. And I agree that the LS 3 would be my choice. Thanks for the info. 👍👌

Superb review. I just scored a one owner 2007 Vert with 36K miles...

Dude. You look super comfortable In front of the camera! This was an excellent video.

Great review! We have a 2007 with all the goodies and low miles. The see thru top is great in the Spring & Fall. Absolutely love the car. The only real change we made was to add new run flat tires. I would highly recommend this car to anyone looking for a reasonably priced corvette.

i thoroughly enjoyed this video

Good for you fella :-) It's easy to see your love for Vettes. Thanks for the info and your story :-) We have an 09 Z06 atomic orange. It's our first Vette, and hope to have more like you, ehh :-) 🇨🇦

My dad has an 09 3lt Crystal Red Metallic Convertible with only 4,650 miles. While I love driving my 370z, the times I can take the C6 out is such a treat. These cars are such a joy to drive. Amazing video by the way!

Good review - looking at a white 07 at the moment. I had my dads C3 (74) white with tan interior so has some nostalgic appeal too.

Excellent , detailed review.

I found a 2 owner, no accident 52k mile ‘07 Velocity Yellow Corvette that I am considering purchasing. These cars give so much bang for the buck!

Good info. Well done. The C6 is a great sports car. Very tempting vehicle to buy.

Very well done and informative.

Thanks for the info! I’m picking up a c6 next week. Maybe I’ll see you out at Waterford this summer haha

Great video! I hope to be in the market for one soon!

I have had my 2007 C6 for six years and it's the best car I have ever owned.

Great quality video needs more recognition

Great information. Thank you from Australia

HEY TOM. JUST FOUND YOUR VIDEO HERE AND YOU, FOR THE FIRST TIME. WATCHED IT AND WANTED TO SAY.... GOOD JOB WITH THE VIDEO, CONTENT AND NARRATION. NICE CAR. * GET THE NEW AND IMPROVED SEATS THAT YOU NEED! YOU HAVE TO BE COMFORTABLE WHILE ENJOYING THE RIDE!

Very good articulate review!

Exhaust sound tip on my 2008: Pull the bottom right corner fuse to keep the exhaust flaps open all the time. The fuse panel is inside cabin on the passenger side, knee level. Your neighbors won't complain about Corvette rumble if you own Harley-Davidsons.

Great review! Just what I wanna hear without all the rambling on and self promotion you see in other channels. Just subbed and hope to see your channel grow.

Excellent video, thank you! Plan on buying one (C6) in the near future.

I have a 2007 C6 also and found that most if not all the info that you covered was spot on and yes I would have considered the 2008 model instead of the 2007 if I had spent more time researching the differennces of both cars?I installed a Borla exhaust, and yes it does make a difference in the sound quality! Living in Calif also makes a big difference in what upgrades I can add to my car owing to our CARB rules and regulations. Too many rules!! Thanks you!

Excellent review! This has always been my favorite model of Corvette, and I plan to (at some point) pick one up. I currently have a 2017 3 Series M-Sport, and a 2004 Wrangler LJ. Seriously considering trading the BMW for one of these...

Nice clean review, lot's of good tips for the new C6 owner. I own a 2010 C6 Grand Sport Convertible for the weekend and a 2004 C5 Z06 as the daily driver / track car. As for the auto vs manual, I have been manual since I had hair, even at 62 I would only buy a manual vette, it's a matter of choice so I don't see a C8 in my future anytime soon.

That was a very good video. I leased an ‘08 Base Coupe for 2 years and just loved it. I’ve been waiting forever to get another one, so that’s my mission. This time, I want either blue or green Coupe. I have to get an automatic due to my back, which sucks because you can get a C-5 Z06 for a decent price and even though they don’t have the power the C-6/C-7/C-8 have, they’re still a blast to drive. But a clutch really kills my back so it’s auto for me. The paddle shifters help, tho.

I own a c6 ls2 6 speed and I love the damn thing. The suspension feels like a new car and engine just roars when you hit the gas. Riding around the city low rpm it sounds quieter than a civic. Great car overall and I like the base because of the targa top, however, I probably wouldn’t hesitate to upgrade to C6z just for the sheer power which would make me forget about it being only a non-removable hardtop.

Nice! I purchased my yellow ‘08 C6 last fall and I love it, first Vette! Im in Metro Detroit also, maybe I’ll see you around town!

I had the same issue with the parking cub and a fellow corvette owner suggested i back my vette into the parking spot, as the rear of the car won't hit the curb, works great!

Great review !

cool video Tom!! Great talking skills

Good informative video. I purchased a 2007 Corvette convertible 3lt automatic Monteray Red in 2014 with 38,000 miles. I absolutely love the car and still own it. However I have had some problems with it. One day the shirt cable broke and left me stranded. I had to get it towed to a Chevy dealer. Replacement cost was over $600. From what I've heard this is not an uncommon problem. I also had the dreaded stuck in park problem which means you can move the shifter out of park. This one is also a known problem and fairly common. The most common fix is to replace the shifter assembly which can be over $1000. I researched this problem on UKposts and was able to fix it myself. The next problem was a DIC warning saying Shift to Park. I moved the shifter to park but I still got this warning. I researched this problem and due to a microchip failure in the shifter assembly the car thought it was in neutral and if you shut the engine off the car stayed in accessory mode. Doing this would eventually drain the battery so I had to disconnect the battery. Since the shifter assembly is non serviceable the only fix is to replace the shifter assembly. I ordered a new shifter assembly and was able to install it myself with some help. The other problem I had is the driver side window regulator went out. Again I was able to buy a replacement part and install it myself with some help. I am not complaining about the car and I still love it but I wanted your readers to be aware of these other potential problems.

Awesome video. I hope to get a 2008 or newer C6 for the LS3 sometime in the future!

Great review. I’m looking for my next fun daily driver, and for the money, I keep coming back to the corvettes... I’ll be 50 in March.... guess I’ll be getting a pair of new balance for my birthday! Lol

I've had my 2007 C6 Automatic Coupe for 3 years. It's my first and last. I don't track my card because there are enough Mountain roads here in Idaho to keep me happy! My Corvette club has enough events too. My first ever ride in a Corvette was in my twin brother's 50th Anniversary Corvette, traveling Route 66 from LA to Chicago together. This is my daily, all-weather car. However, I stay home when there is more than 1" of snow, or un-treated roads with an incline.

Very nice review. You present the car well. There is an exhaust option called NPP or dual mode. It has vacuum baffles that open automatically when you hammer the pedal to give you that Borla style exhaust note. You can also buy an aftermarket button that leaves it on all the time. It is pretty sweet. Nice color car!

Great explains on the car👍

This is how a review should be

Cool video. I have the exact same year, color, and interior blue trim.

sweet ride! got my 05 convertible for 25k w/ 58k miles over the summer. best 25k i ever spent

Excellent video, thank you

Excellent review!

Yes, I'm looking

Awesome vid super cool Vette it has everything you need

appreciate it boss💯

Looking for a c6 z06 video was informative

Excellent review and I enjoyed the process very much. Clear and concise information and appreciated the lack of 'awesome' and 'like' in the commentary.

Definitely getting a c6

Great information thanks.

Great video. Thanks

Great review.
