edmunds TESTED
After its transformative redesign in 2020, the C8 2021 Corvette surpassed a number of high-end sports car rivals in our luxury sport coupe rankings. And thanks to a few additional tech improvements, it's likely cemented its place at the top of the heap for a while to come. The Corvette is bonkers fast, it handles beautifully, and it still manages traffic and daily errands. The styling may be controversial, but its price and performance certainly are not.

World Class caliber let down by GM quality...
4 out of 5 starsPete, 07/14/2022
2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Convertible w/3LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
I have a 2021 C8 3LT convertible. Performance, handling, and ride quality is amazing. Styling is head-turning and overall value is terrific. It just about does everything a Ferrari or Lambo can do for less than half the price. However, it's let down by GM's infamous quality control issues. On my car in particular, the leather on the upper part of the dash is warping. From what I hear, GM … doesn't have a real fix for this except to replace the whole dash. But even that won't guarantee it won't happen again. I also hear this happens on many 3LT models with the leather dash. even on brand new '23 models! This is simply unacceptable. Such a shame that a world-class caliber sports car like the C8 is let down by GM's QC issues.
Delivered as Promised

2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Coupe w/2LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
I have always wanted to get a Vette, but never did. I actually ordered a C7, but backed out because dealer could not give me what I wanted for my trade in. That was before the mid-engine C8 came out. Glad I didn’t get the C7. I was on a list for approximately 18 months. I finally got my car recently and it was worth the wait. The car is fantastic. Chevy really delivered what they … promised with this version. The car is worth every penny they charge for it. I was concerned about two areas specifically. Getting in and out and driving comfort. I’m not going to say it is a breeze entering and exiting the car, but it’s not that bad. Driving it makes up for any “inconvenience.” As far as driving comfort, it is better than expected. My wife, who wasn’t convinced I should even buy it, admitted she was pleasantly surprised. That’s saying something. The exterior styling is phenomenal. I ordered the Red Mist Tincoat Metallic and I can honestly say people are getting whiplash as I drive by. Most of my friends can only say OMG. The interior dispels any thoughts of it not being high quality. GM really got it right. They also did a great job with the technology. It is pretty user friendly. Plus you can customize how the car handles with the multiple choices available. Bottom line for me is it is the best car I’ve ever had. It was worth the wait.
Finally got it right

2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Coupe w/2LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
I took it for a test drive and was blown away. Styling,performance and great value. Finally an Italian looking sports car without the headaches of reliability.
It is what it is...And it's great.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2dr Coupe w/3LT (6.2L 8cyl 8AM)
Didn't get screws denting my doors. The stitching is straight. There are no squeaks or ticks. There were no paint overspray issues. I was lucky.
And it drives as advertised.
Yes. It drives safer, and doesn't purposefully want you to drive into rocks or over a cliff while not in 100% "engagement mode". You can pick when to be naughty or nice.
The seats are all day comfortable, and the … engine is about 50% muted inside, so it's daily-driver material for those of us who don't pose as "weekly track-goers" needing a manual to feel like a beer-chugging real man. AND you get to see you engine by turning your head around. Also, the digital rear-view is quite good. I have about 20-25 spots remembered, where the car raises automatically, and it's a good, good feature that only requires one input.
Best Corvette ever. It looks fast, it drives fast, and it can put all that aggression away to go buy beers to chug.

2021 Chevrolet Corvette: Edmunds Top Rated Sports Car | Edmunds Top Rated Awards 2021
The 2021 Chevrolet Corvette wins the title of Top Rated Sports Car in the Edmunds Top Rated Awards for 2021. Last year, the Corvette won this award due in large part to the new mid-engine layout, which tremendously enhanced the sports car's performance. Not much has changed from last year's model, but the 2021 Corvette is still outpacing the competition, and at a fraction… of the price. It boasts impressive power and acceleration on the open road, yet it's able to handle city traffic and daily errands. The 2021 Chevrolet Corvette is the best sports car on the road today and our experts' pick for Edmunds Top Rated Sports Car for 2021.
