00:00 I don't know about everybody else, but I was like a kid on Christmas the first time I got

00:05 behind the seat of that thing.

00:06 The mid-engine Corvette, have you heard of that?

00:09 On the Corvette, I think the most successful thing of the car is the overall profile of

00:18 it, being a mid-engine profile.

00:19 The cab forward look, the way the visual mass is thrown forward.

00:22 You see the car from a distance, it's going to look quite dramatic.

00:26 Well, the enthusiast world has been waiting for a mid-engine Corvette since the 60s.

00:32 This car has the proportion and the dynamic look of a mid-engine supercar, which it really

00:38 is.

00:39 It's just one that you can afford.

00:42 I think one of its best points is performance and fuel input function.

00:46 It drives really well.

00:47 It's a great sports car.

00:49 It's just incredible that Chevrolet is offering this mid-engine supercar for about $60,000,

00:56 $70,000.

00:57 It's just unreal.

00:58 The amount of engineering that went into that car, the performance that they've extracted

01:05 from it.

01:06 We have a V8 engine behind us, but it can shut off four cylinders.

01:10 Right now, we're actually driving with four cylinders, so we're saving gas.

01:15 This is a really nice interior.

01:16 We've got red stitching, this red leather.

01:20 It's just a thrill to drive.

01:21 It's basically like the poor man's Ferrari.

01:24 It is really right at that same level of performance, but for literally a third the price.

01:32 So there it is, Motor Trend's 2020 Car of the Year, the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
