 Full Test: 2008 Chevrolet Corvette - Road Tests
Inner Beauty: The new-for-2008 Vette doesn't look much different, but more power, better steering, and an available inteior upgrade address the car's few shortcomings.
September 2007
View 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Photo Gallery From a list of 22 new and notable features on the 2008 Corvette, item 12 caught our eye: improved steering feel. That phrase was more significant to us than the biggest news on the list of changes—that the Vette’s pushrod V-8 has been enlarged to 6.2 liters and now makes 430 horsepower (436 with an optional exhaust system), up from an even 400. The reason we were more interested in item 12 is that for years we’ve regarded the Vette’s steering feel as unsatisfactory.
It’s an annoying trait. Although a Corvette can be driven at ludicrously high speeds around a racetrack—an ’07 Vette outran an Audi R8 and Porsche 911 Turbo in our second-annual Lightning Lap runoff at Virginia International Raceway [August 2007]—it can make even experienced drivers nervous on a challenging public road. The Porsche 911, for instance, may not be as quick on the track as a Vette, but it’s far more satisfying because it imparts the same level of confidence that one gets from driving a Mazda Miata. Our hope was that, with the “improved steering feel,” the Vette would now be as user-friendly as it is fast. To help discover if this were the case, we brought along a 2007 model for comparison. |
