[VIDEO] German Girl Reviews the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for Fast Lane Daily

The new Corvette Stingray has won over at last part of a tough audience.

The German-accented Sarah Sauer of The Fast Lane Daily submitted this video of her recent experiences with a 2015 Torch Red Stingray coupe on the roads of Germany.

“I have to tell ya,” she says. “I’m in love with the new Corvette.”

While she drives the Stingray through Germany, she points out that she’s not the only one getting excited about Chevrolet’s seventh-generation Corvette.

“The people out there are excited as well because we don’t have too many American sports cars here in Germany,” she says. “You don’t see them too often here on German roads so you get all the people’s attention out there and they take out their mobiles and take pictures of you.”

Of course, the reason you don’t see too many American sports cars in Germany, she apologizes, is because many Germans think they are not that nice – with cheap plastic interiors and poor driving experience.

“I think it’s time that German people stop thinking like this,” she scolds, “at least when it comes to the new Corvette because the new Corvette does a great job no matter whether you drive on the Autobahn or on country roads, even through city traffic, she’s just fine – she’s doing fine.”

The only negative thing she can say about the new Stingray is the performance of the seven-speed transmission. “I love sports cars with manual transmissions,” she says.

The first four gears are okay, with plenty of power, she says, but “as soon as you switch to the fifth gear, it’s like somebody switched off the engine so there’s no power coming up any more.”

Another problem for her was gearing down from seventh gear, when she had trouble mistakenly going to fourth instead of sixth gear.

“All in all,” she concludes, “I love the new Corvette.”

Or as she so cutely pronounces it, the new “COR-vut,” with the accent on the first syllable.
