Not trying to be a hater, but I have to go against the grain here.. never been a fan of any Corvette since the original.. and this one is no exception.

I just opened this page for nothing. Its like a child with Z06 parts and ZR1 body parts.

This looks like the Family Dollar brand ZR1.

Just picture a Vette with a plexiglass window in the hood and really awsome brakes. You could have seen one and not even known it. A bud of mine has a black one.

I saw one in Miami this week while I was down there working, and its a pretty clean looking car If you're any kind of car enthusiast you can tell the difference between the ZR1 and any other vette.

I found the ZR1 to be somewhat disappointing. All that power and they aren't any faster than a $30000 cheaper Z06. A month or two ago I went looking for some blazing fast stock and bolt-on 1/4 times just out of curiosity, to see what they could do. I knew that the Z06s had hit 10's stock with absolute perfect conditions and drivers, so I figured mid-low 10's for the ZR1. I ended up on a Corvette forum and started reading and it turns out that even with some of those same badass drivers no ZR1 had run faster than a Z06 stock for stock. The Z06s even trapped faster. Never found out exactly why, but I think the car couldn't get the extra power down through the fancy suspension, along with the extra weight. Even the bolt-on cars were struggling in the mid 10's for the most part.
