They do all kinds of reviews. Chevrolet probably did.

Didn't get beyond 1:17, right after he said he didn't know what mode he was driving in and then they started flapping the air vents like a little kid that have to touch everything.
One minute observation: Two retards.

TFL is pretty good. A little corny but not bad.
Non Z51 pulling a 3.3 with a passenger is respectable to 60. Probably shave a .1 off for passenger and another. 1 for non Z51.
Depending on how accurate the rollout is will dictate if that was even accurate. Once drag times gets his vbox and dragy on one we will know. Plus he can drive. More interested in zero to 100 and 1/4mi. 60 to 130 I expect to be disappointed as it's not high hp and 5th is geared too tall.

Is that Dr. Ice in the video? At least I got old before I got fat.

Not Chris Harris but still good and unseen footage. I enjoyed it. Then again, even Chris Harris seems still a Clarkson knock off both in tone and content. Actually tiresome how most "reviewers" just seemingly copy Clarkson. Actually refreshing to see less media slick reviewers who are "authentic".

Tough crowd in here.
I got a kick from it. They were like two kids in a candy store.
Funny thing, I predict that all of us will push every button on our cars when delivery takes place and chances are we will have no clue what mode we will be driving in for the first few seconds.

I just happened across this vid just now and then remembered this thread title.....yeah, who let them behind the wheel of this car to review it?
"Yeah dad, turn right because it's closer to the road"....WTF and then that jackpot in the Tacoma speeding right after him, holy f'k, talk about dog and pony show.

Chevrolet invited several media outlets to a C8 FirstDrive event that took place in and around Las Vegas today and will continue tomorrow at Spring Mountain.
My good friend, John Elegant, is there now and posted a review over on the forum that he co-founded last year. He posted this photo there.

It’s a bit corny, but turn the sound off if you don’t want to listen and just watch the video. I’m just glad to have some more detailed video of another color combo.
