So now it's just a wider version of the slow ass american junk that can't turn corners and gets school by cars with half the cylinders?? Way to fail on this one.

I've driven a C6 and a Z06, these cars can turn and there is nothing slow about them. Stock for stock there is little that can touch these rides for the money and the upgrades are almost infinite.

Oh yeah for sure, Driving those things is something else. Vettes are one of the baddest and most fun cars on the road. Your always going to get haters. Cant wait to pick mine up in the spring. cool

Vettes are by far the best bang for the buck super cars. They finally have a compelte package. Other than the level of interior but its north american so you cant expect much more

Thats funny, I just recently saw a video of one of the car show's comparing the GTR (probably one of the baddest, non american junk cars) vs the ZR1 & the ZR1 smoked the GTR in every test they did, including slalom, G's etc. Think it was probably one of the first gen versions of the GTR, but the ZR1 defently can turn corners.

Personally I like the stock ZR1 widened body (vs the reg Vette) better, I think this one looks to overdone, I'm not a fan when the fenders stick way out just around the wheels.

Actually just saw a nice graphite ZR1 this morning, they may be an old mans car, but I'd drive it if you gave it too me love

I think the vettes for everyone. The zr1 you see more older people I guess because of the $. But I would never call it a old mans car. I see a lot of mixed ages driving c5s and c6s for sure because its alot cheaper.
