There is NO DOUBT the ZR1 has the most bang for the buck… but like Vov said, its about the package. ---

The Viper beat the ZR1 (on race tires) and oh wait, that’s American too. Handling wasn’t he direction I was going with it, things like status are directly proportional to things like cost. Gtr and Zr1 will do wonders on the track for the buck, but there is a big difference between parking a Nissan or a Chevrolet in front of a club or an entry level Ferrari or Lambo. It’s the all around packadge as Bakerian said, unless the Vette beats them in ALL of the categories it’s not a better car, faster yes, better no. ---

ZR1 ftw! Calling a lambo(or whatever) “better” than the ZR1 is completely subjective. Iirc, the Vette clowns all the other cars in damn near every category of performance. I dont want to hear 1 person say the interiors are garbage, because thats just retarded, and null and void. Its 2009, domestics have come a long way, and most younger people are already biased about domestics. Id say this is pretty damn nice: ![http://www.cartype.com/pics/6342/full/chevrolet_corvette_zr1in_09.jpg](http://www.cartype.com/pics/6342/full/chevrolet_corvette_zr1in_09.jpg) Hmm, not too terribly different than… ![http://www.autocult.com.au/img/gallery/full/997GT347.jpg](http://www.autocult.com.au/img/gallery/full/997GT347.jpg) ---

> [@RBakerian"](#): > > When more aftermarket comes out for the GTR, you will see 800-1000HP GTR’s that will be blowing doors off the competitors. same with the ZR1…your forgetting they are both forged motors. 1000whp on both of these cars are cake… but in the long run, the ZR1 still has the power to weight advantage over the GTR and also, GM took old technology (leaf spring suspension and push rod single cam motors) and made it a world class competitor against every other high end performance car out there. ---

Zr1 is a fantastic platform with performance in the supercar territory, however it just falls short of being an exotic. You can’t have it all for the price, but performance is plenty enough. ---
