I'm not even thinking about the sound...
...these things just look very cool without showing off : )
A few modern beasts from The General
I would not trade my Blackwing for either of these Vettes, but they are nice looking. I suspect I am in the minority, but I prefer the looks of the C7 to the C8. The one shown here is a 2017 Z06. ...
Amazing machines!
Your Cadillac has the same engine as the C7 Z06 right? So you're pretty darn close to your favorite Vette! My AMG Mercedes has a similar engine the the McLaren SLR (which has a true dry sump, while my AMG has a traditional oil pan). I really like the Corv...
Yup. LT4.
I also hear the new Z06 C8 is beyond words, and at MSRP, quite possibly the best super car ever produced. Bravo, GM. 2 shots of the glorious LT4 from my car. 668 HP / 659 FT LBs. ...
As always, we are in agreement my Friend.
The C7 is indeed the black one (dark graphite actually, beautiful in person) on the right side. That car was made in 2017 and has the Z06 package, which has the LT4 motor. Same one used in my Blackwing
The Blackwing 'should' be a sleeper...
...but I've seen a few around my neighborhood and they definitely have presence.
You can tone down the exhaust sound
I have to admit, even though it is not at all my thing, I have had a ton of compliments on the car. They are so rare in Colorado, especially the 5, and then with the manual transmission - people who know what the car is go nuts to see it.
"You can tone down the exhaust sound" that's a good thing in my mind
The Corvette does not have that "stealth sound" option, and Chevrolet programmed the engine to bark very loudly when awakened. No sneaking out of the garage for an early Cars 'n Coffee date -- everyone within 3-4 houses will hear your exit, at least in my...
I guess that video of you driving in the city was during the break-in period
Much more fun after! Although you did dig well into the red at the end... yikes. I believe you are not alone in feeling the Vette was not for you after getting it. I have found a good handful of Vette guys don't understand that the Blackwing motor is an e...
Yes, that was very early in its residence in my garage
When I was out at Santee Lakes last week, we drove by the very spot where my 500-mile break-in occurred, and the redline on the digital tach jumped went from 4500 to 6500. It was like a cork pulled out of the exhaust pipe! ...

Here's a look on the track

The CT version is already a monster!
My late father-in-law got the CT6 and it a monster already! Not to mention the Bose sound system inside. Sadly the car was sold last year and what is remain are just some pics from the past. ...
