The lift-out roof panel gives the C8 one more party trick, and the 3LT trim level (as opposed to 2LT) of our test car added some improved interior trim elements and racier seats. But the 3LT upgrade isn't cheap. All Australian C8s also get the Z51 performance package with dual-mode exhaust, adjustable suspension, better brakes, an electronic differential, more cooling and even shorter gearing.

Chevrolet Corvette Speed

The claimed 0-100km/h sprint time of 2.9 seconds for the C8 is, we reckon, a bit optimistic. Nevertheless, it will still be under 3.5 seconds, which is serious acceleration.

Chevrolet Corvette Interior

Randomly placed small buttons and switches populate the interior. The drive-mode controller, too, has an odd action and wrinkling on the tiller's suede covering raises questions.

Chevrolet Corvette Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Chevrolet Corvette here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • Camaro or Corvette coming to Australia?

    We hear lots of speculation but nothing solid yet. If it happens it's most likely to be the Corvette, which will be easier to convert to right-hand drive. GM International boss Stefan Jacoby told CarsGuide's Joshua Dowling in January: "We will bring a true sports car to Australia for the brand Holden."

  • Bright idea for spark plugs

    RUNNING a different fuel -- or even a cleaner through the engine regularly -- might well be a way of preventing the carbon build-up that leads to the problem with the plugs in the Ford V8. The problem is most people only realise there is a problem when the plugs break while being removed.

  • High-cost corvette

    IT WOULD be cheaper to run on LPG, but the cost to fit LPG may be too high to warrant the change. It's not a normal installation and will probably need a lot of custom work. Get an expert to determine the problems of fitting the tank, air ducting for the intake and the suitability of the intake manifold.

  • Corvette release

    The fourth-generation Corvette was introduced in 1984 and ran until 1997, when the C5 was launched. It is still in production.

Chevrolet Corvette Seats

Body-hugging and firm, the C8's seats are not huge but are great over a distance. Hard to know what the average US male makes of them, though.
