A BLOG for the Latest Corvettes: C8, C7 Stingray, C7, C6 Z06, Grand Sport, ZR1 and C5 / Z06!
It was just last week that our own Alex Sommers was asking when we would learn about the changes to the 2021 Corvettes and the answer is sooner than GM expected. Late Saturday night saw the options posted to a C8 Corvette Owners Group on Facebook and they quickly exploded across the popular Corvette forums.
Each week, Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvettes to his customers who come from all across the country to work with the nation’s top individual Corvette seller.
The new 2020 Corvettes continue to roll into Criswell Chevrolet and this week Mike puts the spotlight on the deliveries of a Long Beach Red Coupe and a Black Z51 Stingray.
Welcome to Quick Mega Shifts! Quick Shifts is a content feature here at CorvetteBlogger featuring links to Corvette and automotive-related stories of interest but that wasn’t good enough for this week’s edition. In an effort to entertain our hoard of readers who are stuck at home on government-mandated lockdown, we gave the web an even deeper investigation for top notch automotive content than usual.
The Corvette is always in “Weather Mode” when it comes to determining “whether or not” to drive it in the rain.

We know how much owners like to show off the tiny C8 crossed-flags logos that are featured on their new mid-engine sports cars. Here’s another Easter Egg sighting on the 2020 Corvette Stingray.
If you get up close to the 2020 Corvette Coupe, you’ll find the tiny C8 logos on both the front headlights and at the top of the glass rear hatch assembly.
Today is March 27th and so you know our friends at Mid America Motorworks are celebrating 327 Day! As an owner of a 327 small block, it’s a holiday we can get behind!

The Internet was abuzz over the past few days with the revelation that water – gasp! – can actually get into the engine compartment of the new 2020 Corvette, thanks to a C8 owner, Morgan Crosbie, who posted a YouTube video about this issue that was first picked up by CorvetteBlogger last week.

In this time of “social distancing” thanks to COVID-19, you might think it would be a good time to push online sales and home delivery for new and used cars.
But once this crisis passes, Rick Hendrick – yes, the man who owns many of the first VINs of Corvettes produced, including #001 of the mid-engine generation and also owner of more than 100 auto franchises – tells Autoweek he’s not so sure sales via the Internet are the right answer for everyone.
Perhaps the most important Corvette in the National Corvette Museum’s collection is the World’s Only 1983 Corvette. The car has an incredible backstory and it’s only because of a fluke that it exists today.
In the next episode of the National Corvette Museum’s new series Fully Vetted, NCM Curator Derek Moore and Media Coordinator Bob Bubnis tell us the full story of how the 1983 Corvette was developed, tested, and how it survived the crusher with interviews of those incredible people that were there and made it happen.
One of the largest collections of model Corvettes occupies the man cave of an Oconomowoc, Wisconsin enthusiast.
But 75-year-old Rich Gilbert says once the gas finally runs out on his collection, he hopes to donate it to the National Corvette Museum where visitors can continue to enjoy it.
“I hate to see people have big collections and nobody sees ‘em,” he tells CBS58 reporter Michael Schesinger.
