About
One Guy. One C8. Every Mile Documented.
I'm Zander — based in Philadelphia, and I daily drive a 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray 2LT Z51. Not a weekend car. Not a garage queen. My only car.
ZK's Garage started because I couldn't find what I was looking for: real, long-term C8 ownership content from someone who actually lives with the car every day. Most Corvette content comes from dealers, press fleets, or guys who drive theirs 3,000 miles a year. I've put 12,000+ miles on mine — through a full Northeast winter, Philadelphia traffic, road trips, and everything in between.
Every mile is documented. Every cost is tracked. Every number in the guides is sourced. No press cars. No paid reviews. No BS.
Two Brothers. Two C8s.
Here's what makes this channel different: my brother also owns a C8. I've got a 2020 Stingray 2LT Z51 in Arctic White. He's got a 2023 3LT in black. Two different years, two different trims, two different perspectives — one channel.
We compare, we swap, we argue about which one's better. Nobody else on YouTube has this.
