My 2025 has custom interior with 1400 hpI hope they do something with the interior. One thing Chevy has ALWAYS lacked in is their interior packages.
yeah i used to go to cars.com and autotrader alot. now i just deal with cargurus.comIf you check cars.com or autotrader.com you will dozens of 2023 and 2024 Z06’s will less than 1000 miles traded in months ago and just sitting. Some overpriced, others sold back to the dealers out of fear. In many forums the owners said they feared the transmission wouldn’t hold up. When I got my current Z06 there was a 500 mile break-in period where you had to baby it, take back for a free oil change, then you could drive the shit out of it. This new Vette (base model as well) requires the same, then a transmission flush and filter change at 7,500 miles. Many cars don’t make it that far before the tranny goes out. Scary shit, under warranty or not.
The problem with the Hellcats and such is they were too affordable. They just gave out 600 Hp like Halloween candy. This ZR1 will be 200K? Easy. Or they price it at $170k and dealers will mark it up. If the transmission hold up, it’s a wrap for the car game. Why fuck with a McClaren, Lambo or Ferrari when you can hit 207 for under 200k?Sexy cars no doubt but at 1,000 hp some of these cars are gonna fuck shit up. Not everyone can handle serious power, shit look at all the charger/challenger muthafuckaz who had a hard time handling 485 and 700 hp and crashing out.
That’s a beast. Only problem is the C8 is plagued with transmission issues. I was gonna get a 2025 but when I went to dealer the service bay and service lot as filled with em. They didn’t have room for them; all needing transmissions well before 5,000 miles. Some as low as 800 miles and the transmission blew. And it’s taking up to 90 days for some to get their cars back, forcing GM to buy the cars back under the Lemon Law.

and you're right...........there are a whole lot of stingrays on there with very few miles....
All models from 2020-now. It’s a Tremec transmission. If you follow any corvette groups on social mefia, and especially on Corvetteforum.com, they’re been reporting it since 2020. 3 posted on Facebook this week alone.@ANGRY MAN @Deezz
Whoa.....my first time hearing about this
Are the transmission issues just with the 2023/2024 C8 Z06
Or are they also problematic with the stingrays
Oh man..... 1000hp only to the back wheels is wild. I 100% see a bunch of these wrapped around trees. People need to take a pro driving class if you buy one of these.Sexy cars no doubt but at 1,000 hp some of these cars are gonna fuck shit up. Not everyone can handle serious power, shit look at all the charger/challenger muthafuckaz who had a hard time handling 485 and 700 hp and crashing out.
I've heard about it for sure. A lot of people are afraid to mod their cars because any extra power will cause your transmission to take a dump.@ANGRY MAN @Deezz
