| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
Very fast! Very quick! Rides nice and looks great. I like to drive it so much it is hard to stop driving the damn thing.
The seats fit me perfectly.
The 6 speed manual is a pure joy to shift. I currently own 6 cars and this is by far the most fun to drive and the most comfortable.
It seems to go faster as I listen to 60's music on xm.
The key less ignition is a great idea.
Love the "heads up display".
The dual mode exhaust makes one sweet sound. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
I would remove the rev limiter (factory set at 6500).
I would remove the first to fourth shift over ride.
I suggest making the gas tank a little larger. It is 18 gallons and I would like 20 to 22 gallons.
The push button door release on the door panel is a pain. 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Review:
I currently have 9 late model cars and have had over 50 cars. The 2008 Corvette is the sweetest of them all. I have had several Corvettes and this car has the best ride, and looks hot and sexy even if it is parked. This is the best car for the money. If we had more sun shinny 75 degree days in Ohio and I would make it my daily driver. If you are a car guy you need this car. Make sure you get the dual mode exhaust, 6 speed manual, up grade sound system and the mid level seats. |

| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
Awesome power.
Outstanding performance with the 6-speed manual.
27 mpg on highway/19 mpg overall.
Go-cart handling.
Rides as good as a Honda Accord.
Exterior design. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
Eliminate the "skip-shift" feature.
Add better interior lighting for night reading. 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Review:
The base model with the optional dual-mode exhaust, even without the Z51 gears and suspension, will smoke just about any other car out there! This thing will go much faster than most mortal humans care to go, and after hitting a quick 135 mph on the highway it will take you to the grocery store where you can pile a weeks worth of menu items in the back and cruise home without worrying about breaking the eggs.
Go ahead and buy your German or Japanese sports cars if you want, but there's no way you will get as much bang-for-the-buck. The 2008 Corvette is a rocket ship on wheels. |

The overall looks of the car. Truely a muscle car. No other car out there under 50K makes the statement as a Corvette Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
Corvette is about the only sports car out there that does not have some type of rear spoiler all the way across the rear. I'm going to purchase a aftermarket for mine to even out the car. 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Review:
I've had my car now for 2 weeks, love the car, not sure why Corvette would not have placed an emblem on top to press down the hatch with. (hand prints)How much extra would it have cost GM to place the stereo controls on the steering wheel on all models. Figure out a way to get more storage compartments in car, maybe behind the seat on the flat area. The break pedal looks cheap, why paint the rear rotors grey primer? If the rear calibers was a little larger and said the word Corvette on them like the front I'm sure people like me would have paid the extra $200.00 for. Find a way to give a little more leg room for the passenger. |

Improve the self-adjusting clutch. It has been a huge problem because under the right circumstances it can get so far out of adjustment that it needs to go into the shop and take down the entire drivetrain in order to re-adjust it. The clutch needs to be re-designed. 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Review:
I am on my 2nd 2008 Corvette because I won an Ohio Lemon Law case from my 1st Corvette received in October of 2007 and had to re-order at GM's expense. Unfortunately, the replacement Corvette has the same problem as the 1st one and I am now getting grief from GM. Apparently, the self-adjusting clutch can actually get itself completely out of adjustment if the engine is revved while the clutch pedal is slightly off the floor. GM calls it the "sweet spot". They are now blaming my driving habits even though they have acknowledged that the design will allow for this to occur. When I asked what can be done to satisfy me if it should continue to occur, A Corvette Manager suggested that I, "get out of a Corvette and into something else". Unbelievable! Do you believe this? I would not recommend a 2008 Corvette with standard transmission to anyone and I can't really recommend and GM vehicle because of the manner in which my experience is being handled to this point. I am an experienced driver of standard shift, performance cars, including a previous Corvette and am insulted, frustrated and extremely disappointed. It is no wonder GM is in trouble. |

Everything but the ground clearence; raise it up an half of inch whould help the Corvette scrape. And make all the tires the same size, you cn't even rotate the tire, and do you know how much they cost. I'm sure you do, but as an 06 owner they are hard to pay for. Plus I don't like the way they feel when they are on the highway; they will pull you of the road on a highway that is not level. My 1981 handles much better, rides ruffer but what do you expect from a 27 year old car, but from an 06 you would not expect it to want to throw you of the road when ther is a little crease in the road. The run flats suck. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?
All of thta safety stugg is a pain, I have a 2006, and a 1981. |

Good on highway for comfort and milage (if you really care about that)My wife and I are older and appreciate that we can still enjoy a Corvette that has some comfort that we need, but still fun to drive. |
