American Pride Corvette ZO6
Stan “the Corvette Man”, Stockton, CA, 05/14/2018
2018 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2dr Coupe w/3LZ (6.2L 8cyl S/C 7M)
If you like blistering acceleration, road holding grip equal to a full blown race car, an interior fitting to a luxury jet, overall aggressive looks that rival any super car, look no further. Corvette ZO6 Coupe will deliver all this and more.
Enjoyed 10,200 miles so far zero issues. It’s addictive to drive and very addictive to drive fast.
During very “spirited” driving sessions No … overheating of any kind even during peak summer heat waves of 105 degrees and climbing up a steep grade.
That issue, if there ever really was one has been resolved.
A Torch Red C7 Corvette turns heads where ever you drive. Invites a lot of questions and interest when ever parked or gassing up.
If your a shy quiet type I’d suggest a you drive a dull slug Pris.
Edmunds Summary Review of the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible
Pros & Cons
- Pro:Unbeatable performance for the price
- Pro:The coupe's generous cargo space
- Pro:Comfortable ride quality for a sports car
- Con:Interior quality isn't quite at the level of its overseas competitors
- Con:Missing some of the latest driver safety aids
Which Corvette does Edmunds recommend?
First off: It's a Corvette. That means: a) you can't go wrong, and b) there's likely a version that matches your exact wants and needs. But in our opinion, the Grand Sport is the ideal choice. It provides the upgraded handling and visual flair of the Z06 but without the Z06's substantial cost increase. Sure, the Z06 is faster, but the Grand Sport's 460 hp is plenty, trust us.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
Driving
9.0With the Grand Sport package, the Corvette is an almost telepathic performer. The engine and brakes are very strong and easy to modulate, and the manual transmission operates smoothly. Steering feel is lacking at the limit, but those limits are far beyond what most roads allow.
Comfort
8.0There's no getting around the fact that this is a convertible sports car, but it requires surprisingly little compromise on comfort. Magnetic Ride Control provides good ride quality, and the seats are comfortable for all but the tallest drivers. Ultimately, the biggest problem is tire noise.
Interior
7.5For a relatively small two-seater convertible with a large bulkhead right behind the seats, the Corvette surprisingly doesn't feel cramped. The control layout is thoughtful, and driving position is quite adjustable. But visibility and entering and exiting are problematic.
Utility
6.0Convertible buyers won't be expecting much in the way of utility, which is good because the Corvette doesn't offer it. The small trunk and limited interior storage mean you won't be using it for trips to Costco.
Technology
8.0All of Chevrolet's connectivity tech is available, from smartphone integration to OnStar and even a Wi-Fi hotspot. The MyLink system is fast and easy to use. Blind-spot monitoring would be welcome considering the limited visibility.
