Good Afternoon Everybody: A Exciting Development in the Corvette World
Mike is here making a short video today, and he's excited to share some huge news with his audience. He's been under the weather for the last couple of days due to a flu, but nothing can stop him from sharing this incredible news about Chevrolet's latest move.
The 2017 Corvette Grand Sport: A Move That Nobody Saw Coming
Chevrolet has made a move that nobody saw coming, and it's huge news for Mike and his audience. The 2017 Corvette Grand Sport is a car that nobody expected to see on the market again, but here it is. It's not just any ordinary car; it's an updated version of the Z6 body with an updated regular Corvette underneath.
For those who may not be familiar with the Corvette, it has a rich history that goes back a long time. The C6 model was released in 2005 and underwent a big refresh a few years later. The Grand Sport is actually based on this C6 model, and it's been an important part of the Corvette family ever since.
Speculation About the Release of the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport
There was a lot of speculation about whether Chevrolet would release the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport or not. Some people thought that it wouldn't happen until later in the year, but here it is. The fact that Mike can share this news with his audience is a testament to how much he's been following the development of this car.
The Timing of the Release
Mike notes that the C7 generation was released three years ago, and now we have a Grand Sport model available for 2017. This is an exciting development, especially since it means that fans like Mike will be able to get their hands on this new car sooner rather than later.
Order Banks for Corvettes
Typically, order banks for Corvettes open up in late summer, and now we have the release of the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport. This means that Mike expects to be able to order his new car sometime in late July or early August. He's excited about this development and can't wait to learn more about the car.
The Significance of the Grand Sport
For those who may not be familiar with the Corvette, the Grand Sport is a car that many fans love and respect. It has a certain look and feel that sets it apart from other cars in its class. Mike notes that the Grand Sport has all the looks and great features of the C6 model but without the engine he's not too fond of.
The Cooling Issues with the Z6
One of the things that bothered Mike about the Z6 is its cooling issues. He prefers a naturally aspirated C6, which he feels is better than the supercharged version of the Z6. The fact that the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport is updated with an engine that doesn't have these issues makes it even more appealing to Mike.
Excitement and Curiosity
Mike is excited about the release of the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport, but he's also curious about how much it will cost. He knows that the regular Corvette starts at around $80,000, which is a significant amount of money. If the Grand Sport costs around $15 more than the regular C7, then it would be priced around $65,000 to $70,000.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Mike is thrilled about the release of the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport. He's been following this car for a while and can't wait to get his hands on it. The fact that it has all the looks and great features of the C6 model but without the engine he prefers makes it an attractive option for many fans. Mike is excited about learning more about this car and hopes that his audience will be just as excited. He thanks everyone for watching and looks forward to sharing more updates in the future.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: engood afternoon everybody Mike here making a short video today I was simply too excited not to make a video even though my voice is quite frankly absolute still um if you follow me on Instagram you know that I had the flu for the last couple of days but uh yeah I just couldn't wait to make a video about this because Chevrolet in a move that nobody saw coming released the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport and this is just huge huge news for me especially now the Corvette has a storyed history that you know go goes back a long time we're not going to get into but for the C6 the the Grand Sport came out in 2010 and it was basically the C 6 Corvette was released in 05 and it was basically like a big refresh to the car because you know the the C6 was 5 years old at that point and the Grand Sport what it was was basically the Z06 body with just an updated uh regular Corvette underneath uh but you know pretty severely updated new interior and a lot of different stuff so you know there was a lot of speculation that would Chevrolet do a Grand Sport for the C7 generation maybe a lot of people thought they weren't going to do it at all and most people thought you know if they were going to do it it's going to be a while because you think for the C6 the C6 came out in 05 Grand Sport came in 010 yeah 010 in 10 5 years later um so the C7 generation probably wasn't going to get one if at all until like maybe 18 19 at the earliest the absolute earliest you know here we are 3 years after the C7 release and we have a Grand Sport confirmed now and that is just really really cool because the Grand Sport is just like the old version is the Z6 body but an updated regular Corvette underneath and as you guys know one of my beefs with the Z6 was the cooling issues and quite frankly I'm not a fan that it has a supercharge to begin with I'd much prefer an naturally aspirated co6 so this is like the answer to everything that I've been wanting this is like a dream come true this car um it has all the looks and every all the great stuff about the co6 but not the engine which I wasn't necessarily a great fan of um and as I'm getting ready to search for a new car this has thrown a total total curveball into the mix here that is really really something cool so um yeah I'm excited to hear some more information about it but I assume that's what it's going to be I mean that that's what it is basically in the little press release they did I'm sure there'll be some little details added in as time goes on in the car action the nearest production but what we know is that it will be a 2017 model year now the order banks for Corvettes uh for the next model year usually happen around late summer so I would expect to be able to order this car sometime in Late July maybe early August um so that would just be that would be awesome and you know the Grand Sport is the Corvette for a lot of people that aren't familiar the one with the little hash marks uh the little Stripes up on the front fenders so um anyway you know I'm not going to go on because I'm already losing my voice but um this is like awesome huge news so I want to know what you guys think should I do you think maybe get a Grand Sport would that be cool I think it would because it it's not going to be a popular car to begin with um and it's just it's really something it's like the perfect mix for me as far as I'm concerned and I don't know how the pricing is going to work because like you know regular Corvette 50 Grand Z6 starts at 80 grand you know that's like not that big of a difference a $330,000 difference so if the Grand Sport is like 15 more than a regular uh C7 you know you're looking at like 65 Grand maybe 70 grand and then you're right at to Z6 so the pricing of these cars is going to be like all out of whack uh but it's awesome that they can offer these cars so cheap but so honestly that's where I'm at right now I'm super excited about the new Grand Sport I really want to learn more about it and that for me is like the perfect car honestly like that's what I would really really want so let me know what you guys think I'm really considering this and looking at it uh but as always thank you so much for watching always appreciate it if you're stopping in for the first time please subscribe and take care have a great daygood afternoon everybody Mike
