None of those other super cars, however, equals the ZR1’s performance-per-dollar ratio. “The ZR1 is an incredible machine by any measure,” said Ed Peper, North American Vice President, Chevrolet. “There’s simply no other vehicle in the world that does a better job of balancing performance, price and fuel economy.” **Performance perspective** The Corvette ZR1’s 0-60 performance is 0.3-second quicker than the already-quick Corvette Z06 and the 0-100-mph performance is nearly a full second quicker - 7 seconds vs. the Z06’s 7.9 seconds. It is performance that is equal to or better than many super cars costing substantially more. “A favorable power-to-weight ratio gives the ZR1 an advantage over the competition and performance that has to be experienced to fully appreciate,” said Tom Wallace, Corvette chief engineer. “Of course, on a racetrack, drivers of competitors’ cars may appreciate the ZR1 in a whole different manner.” And the racetrack isn’t the only place where the ZR1 trumps its super-car competitors – it beats them at the gas pump, too. According to [fueleconomy.gov](http://fueleconomy.gov), the ZR1’s EPA-rated 14 city and 20 highway mileage ratings beat 2008 competitors such as the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano (11 city / 15 highway); the Lamborghini Murcielago (8 city / 13 highway) and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage (12 city / 19 highway). They’re competitive with the Dodge Viper (13 city / 22 highway) and the Porsche 911 GT3 (15 city / 22 highway). **Under the carbon-fiber hood** A new LS9 6.2L supercharged small-block engine powers the ZR1’s performance capability. Heavy-duty and lightweight reciprocating components support high-rpm performance, while a new, sixth-generation supercharger (and complementing charge-cooling system) helps the LS9 make big power and torque across the rpm range. The engine is hand-assembled at GM’s Performance Build Center, in Wixom, Mich. In addition to the LS9 engine, the ZR1 is a technology powerhouse, designed with lightweight and unique components that reinforce its performance with a confidant feel on either a highway or road course. **Options** The standard ZR1 comes with accoutrements based on the Z06, including lightweight seats and lightweight content. The available uplevel interior package includes power-adjustable, heated and leather-trimmed sport seats (embroidered with the ZR1 logo); side air bags; Bose premium audio system; navigation system; Bluetooth connectivity; power telescoping steering column; custom leather-wrapped interior available in four colors and more. Chrome wheels are the only other available option on the ZR1. Detailed pricing noted below. - $103,300 Base MSRP including destination - $1,700 Gas guzzler tax - $10,000 Option package - $2,000 Chrome wheels **About Chevrolet** Chevrolet is one of America’s best-known and best-selling automotive brands.

Any offical HP numbers? 11.3 1/4 sounds slow to me. The 4,000 lb CTS-V with 100 less HP is breaking into the 11s I figured a 800 lb or so diet and adding 100 HP would result in 11.0 or dipping into the 10’s from the factory. ---

What type of tires is the CTS-V using? I’m sure the ZR1 is under rated. A friend took his stock ZO6 and ran a 11.54 @127.5mph with a 1.991 60 ft. the first time at the track with it. When Chevy rated the ZO6 1/4 mile: 11.7 @125. > [@Viper966](#): > > runflat tires… > > 131 mph trap is nothing to mess with +1 , I have seen Cobra’s run 10’s @ 130’s MPH. using DR’s or St/ slicks. 131 mph for the ZR1 impressive, I still wouldnt buy one.

LOL TY kev.Had to get the boner first before I posted ya whore. Yeah I seen this on the Vette forums a day or 2 ago.I thought for sure they would do it for 99.9 but I guess with all the dealer mark ups they wanted a little more of the piece. As far as the options I’m pretty sure the ZR is fairly loaded and most of those options are for the base models. I’m probably going to order JS blue with the chrome wheels and Nav if not included.I forget what the 10K option included other then the interior but didn’t really interest me that much.so about 117K out the door for me.UGH ---
