2023 C8 Corvette Z06 September Delivery CONFIRMED?? (VIDEO)

In this video by Supercar Ranch he has a video of visually seeing the terms and conditions of the Green Corvette Z06 C8 NFT project stating “The current anticipated delivery timeframe of the Vehicle is September 2022, but is subject to change at the sole discretion of GM”

Check it out in this Video Short he made 30 minutes before we posted this on June 24th, at 2:45PM (PDT) Pacific Standard Time

2023 Corvette C8 Z06 deliveries will start in September 2022! Confirmed???

However when we went to the Chevrolet.com website where he pulled this from you can see in the video above it was there and it is now gone.

In that same section he refers to in his video we see this “You acknowledge and agree that the Vehicle is not currently in existence, and will not be built, fulfilled, or delivered until after the completion of the Auction.”

Also, we searched the page by the word “Delivery” or “September” and its indeed removed from the Chevrolet.com website and we don’t see anything on their media press release about that either. The word “September” doesn’t even have one mention on the entire page now.

c8 z06 NFT

It’s pretty crazy if they removed it that fast after his video unless someone already mentioned internally at Chevrolet they listed the C8 Z06 September delivery and had that removed.

It does align with their “late summer” communication which is the only thing that Chevrolet and the Corvette brand team has told anyone. And we are sure whoever is going to be the winner of this NFT project is going to want to know those details.

Our guess is end of August would mark the production and maybe they announce the production date and pricing for the C8 Corvette Z06 at Corvettes of Carlisle will align perfectly with “late summer” as they have said all along.

Late summer would be mid September when Summer officially ends. Also, with them going live with this NFT project and a lot more C8 Corvette Z06s being spotted in Public including a Black Z06, Rapid Blue Z06, and Hypersonic Grey C8 Z06 it has to be getting close to releasing C8 Z06 pricing, ordering and production information.

Eric’s 1000hp Twin turbo C8 Gets a MBRP Exhaust

In this video by Complete Street Performance their tech Eric who built his own C8 Corvette with the Complete Street Performance Twin Turbo kit adds a MBRP Exhaust.

Check out this video to see how the MBRP Exhaust sounds and looks with it’s carbon fiber tips on Eric’s 1000 Horsepower Twin Turbo C8 Corvette.

We cover the MBRP Exhaust for the C8 Corvette back in May of 2021 so a little over a year ago when we caught wind of one of their first MBRP exhaust videos for the Corvette C8.

The MBRP Exhaust is T304 Stainless Steel, has Carbon Fiber Tips and is priced under $1,600.

We install the new MBRP Exhaust on Eric’s Twin Turbo C8 Corvette Making 1000 RWHP. Our rep brought over this bad boy that is easily half the price of other exhausts for the C8.

1st Electric Ford F-150 Lightning Drag Race vs C8 Corvette!

In this video Brink of Speed does a collaboration video with Why Envy with his new Electric EV Ford F-150 and provides a review with a comparison vs his C8 Corvette.

Why Envy on YouTube or Mark T received the first Electric EV Ford F 150 in Texas. This video give you an idea and review of the Electric Ford 150 and how it compares in a drag race with the Naturally Aspirated V8 Mid Engine C8 Corvette.

Mark mentioned that you can run a house and use the Ford 150 EV or Electric Ford 150 has a generator and will power a house for 10 days.  He also shows how you can use your mid console as a laptop workstation and it has several 12 volt plug outlets to be the ultimate work truck.

As you will see the C8 Corvette is still faster than the Electric Ford 150 especially from a launch and giving it a head start with a full car length.

Rear Wheel Drive Sells his Liberty Walk Wide Body C8 Corvette to Carmax? (VIDEO)

Check out this video by Rear Wheel Drive on YouTube as he shares more information on his C8 Corvette Liberty Walk Widebody build and does he sell it to CarMax?

He also takes his Liberty Walk Widebody C8 Corvette build to CarMax to see what they would offer in comparison to the money he spent on a $20,000 wide body kit, $20,000 paint job, $10,000 Rohana wheels, and he paid $20,000 over MSRP to get his C8 Corvette.

Carmax offered him $57,000 dollar for his C8 Corvette which is a lot lower than even Speed Phenom who flipped his stock C8 Corvette with high miles (over 22,000 miles) for $85,000 about 9 months ago.

We have covered popular C8 Corvette Widebody builds we have seen online on YouTube and Instagram and recently shared why we didn’t go with one with our C8 Corvette. Even covered the Hamilton Collection Pandem Widebody C8 Corvette that no one wants to drive.

Instead we stuck to no cutting Carbon Fiber parts for our C8 Corvette and using Racing Sport Concepts Carbon Fiber C8 Corvette Body kit instead.

The Racing Sport Concepts Carbon Fiber C8 Corvette Body aero kit doesn’t require needing an Auto Body or Paint shop and you can easily take the carbon fiber parts off your C8 Corvette and take it back to stock if you want to sell them separately or using them for another C8 Corvette build. Also, the carbon fiber parts to make it look a lot better without widebody fenders etc.. are under $6k for the splitter, spoiler and side skirts. So this option is almost 4x less than a widebody kit.

What do you think of this offer and what Rear Wheel Drive should do to recoup his money on his widebody C8 Corvette?

Currently, Toxic Garages is selling his C8 Corvette Pandem Widebody at Hive Auto as well for $150k+

C8 Corvette Z06 vs. C6 Corvette Z06: What’s the difference?

The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is a special model that has been produced off and on since 1963. The purpose of the Z06 is to showcase the power and performance of the Corvette line while producing a truly track-ready sports car.

Two recent editions of the Z06 platform have truly elevated the status of the Corvette as a world-class performance machine that could double as a racer on weekends. Those are the C6 Z06 and upcoming C8 Z06.

While they share the same Z06 lineage, each is very different from the other and offers owners some very significant advantages. Let’s take a closer look at these two truly great Corvette models.

C6 Z06 Elevates Traditional Corvette Performance

Chevrolet produced the C6 Z06 from 2006 through 2013 and gave it the most powerful small-block V8 Chevy Corvette engine built up to that time. Only the eventual Corvette ZR1 would prove to be more powerful, but it was not available at the time.

The 7.0-liter LS7 Chevrolet engine delivered up to 505 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. An all-aluminum frame shaves 136 pounds from the Corvette’s traditional steel frame. That helps the C6 to weigh a svelte 3,130 pounds while giving it a very enviable power-to-weight ratio of about 6.2 pounds per single horsepower.

The C6 has 18-inch front wheels and 19-inch rear wheels with six-piston brake calipers in front and four-piston calipers in back. A rigid fixed roof, wider fenders in the front and rear, a front splitter, and a rear spoiler all helped to improve the performance and handling. So did specially designed stabilizer bars, shocks, and spring rates.

The C6 Z06 Corvette has a top speed of 198 mph and can go from 0-60 mph in 3 seconds. Its 10.98 quarter-mile times at 123 mph made the C6 Z06 Vette the quickest of its kind during its production run. The Chevy Corvette engine is a truly phenomenal motor that also is capable of surprisingly good fuel economy at up to 30 mpg.

C8 Z06 Redefines the Corvette Platform

Chevrolet started building the next generation of the Z06 in the summer of 2022 and intends to make it available for sale as a 2023 model. The mid-engine Vette has proven to be very popular, and the C8 could be the costliest and fastest Vette ever built. Moving the Chevy Corvette engine behind the passenger cabin gives it better balance and handling at higher rates of speed.

The C8 has a 5.5-liter V8 Chevrolet engine with a flat-plane crank and produces up to 670 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. It revs to 8,600 rpm and uses a dual-clutch eight-speed transmission to send the power to the rear-drive wheels.

The C8 will have 20-inch aluminum wheels in front and a pair of 21-inch aluminum wheels in the rear. Six-piston brake calipers in front and four-piston calipers in the rear help to keep the power under control.

An optional Z07 performance package will make the C8 even more ready for racing duties. Performance numbers are not available, but the horsepower significantly surpasses that of the C6 along with a bit more torque.

Choose Your Preferred Vette

The most significant differences between the C6 and C8 Z06 Corvettes are engine location and transmission. The C6 has the traditional front-mounted Chevy engine while the C8 is a mid-engine unit. You sit behind the engine in the C6 and in front of it in the C8.

The C6 also provided a six-speed manual transmission with an optional six-speed automatic also available. The mid-engine configuration on the C8 forces owners to live with an automatic transmission that takes up less space than a manual. The brawny Chevy Corvette engine will make you forget whether you are driving a manual or automatic.

There is no way to go wrong with either the C6 or the C8 Z06 Corvettes. The C6 is a bit more affordable, but money likely will not be a barrier to anyone who is considering either model.

If you like a manual transmission and a front-engine configuration, the C6 is the obvious choice. If you prefer a mid-engine configuration with the potential to surpass the performance of the C6, then the C8 Z06 is the choice you should make.
