The engine on your glorified Mustang is more likely to. GM V8s are bulletproof.

Have fun with it. Fire the guy doing the camera work asap. That's exactly how I imagine it would be if I was totally shitfaced while trying to film a car.

I think you need to do some reading. Read about how many of the 5.8 S/Cs have blown up. Its a fair amount, because even Motor Trend took a shot at it.

We are having a great time with the new Stingray. The car is a blast to drive. We only have the car for a week before GM picks it up, so far the car is a marvel and we are enjoying our time and all the positive attention and thumbs ups! Compared to my trouble-free C6 Corvette, the C7 is splendidly impressive and a progressive step in the right direction.

Car and driver just had two cars blow plus all the individual c7s on the corvette forums so sit down take an hour or so and do some research before you post your next insightful reply.


Plus now you are making shit up.

Making shit up? Google the GT500 that burnt its piston with just 600 miles on it.

Oh and don't bother responding. I have better things to do than argue with a fanboy with an inferior Ford. Typical Masshole.

+1. Just read the C&D article today about them blowing a motor in their test C7 during the Lightning Lap...I haven't heard of many 5.8's blowing up. I would like to see a couple links too.
