I'm looking forward to hearing comparisons between the standard 10 speaker Bose and 14 speaker surround version. Not sure why I even care as I would hardly be using it but still very curious.

SO many new youtubers gaming for attention..
the dislikes are a personal issue and hopefully this gentleman finds solutions over time and somehow Id imagine he will create some solutions when possible.

I only made it about 2 minutes into the video and bailed. If he had gotten to the point sooner, I might not have lost interest. Anyhoo, IMO the “misses” with this car have little to do with the car itself and more to do with nightmare for too many of actually buying it.

And GM picks up on all comments to improve. This will make 2021 22 23 24 that much better. We will see the close to perfect C8 down the road. First year buyers are key to improving the product for the future. 19 C7's were close to perfected, we will see the same on the C8's. Keep posting opinions! Always going to be case by case issues on any car, especially as they get older, how they are used, miles etc.

Had none of these problems with my 14 or 17. Overheating was addressed in 2017 with additional cooling as well.

What about A8 issues - I own an M7
cracked and bent rims - I own a Z51, not a GS, no rim problems
and paint problems were the bumper was attached to the fenders - not in my case
I forgot one, over heating on the track - I don’t track it

I'll save someone the time to watch: He hates the 1) Steering wheel 2) Spoiler design 3) Wheel Design 4) Exhaust tips 5) Weight gain 6) Appearance package for engine.

2020 C5 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
The C8 Corvette is a game changer, Chevrolet hit it out of the park, its a great sports car and a fantastic Corvette! Cannot wait to be able to get my C8 Z06!

1. No A8 problems because no A8
2. Bent wheels - Yes, 2 of them, one for each track outing - replaced with Forgeline VX1 R's - pathetic performance by GM here
3. Overheating on the track - No, see #1
4. Zero paint issues with the Admiral Blue paint - better paint than on my wife's '10 300 GLC Merc - almost, but not as good as my SQ5 paint.
Over and out.
Questions?

Maybe someone with time to watch the video could just list what the OP thinks the major issues are. I can't stand to click and watch all of this poorly produced ****. I would rather skim over a couple of completely misspelled sentences than watch most of this stuff.

Thanks for the cliffs notes. All of these are subjective. I have no issue with any of these "flaws". When I saw the car in person and got to ride in one this week, all I have to say is WOW! The 2020 is awesome! In addition, future model years will have new options, wheel designs and minor improvements. Every model year before has done it and every model year to come will have them. It's the reason people buying a 2020 will upgrade in 2025 if not before.

Because people only post stuff like this to generate ad revenue. We’ve heard all these complaints 100x before in the forum, why do we need a rehash?
