Here’s a good one versus the 991.2 GT2RS, Pro driver in the RS, non-– pro in the ZR1: [MEDIA]
Agreed. There’s no really “good” reason for doing this other than keeping out to save some money. I read that Tadge Uchter and the team had wanted...
Yeah, GM didn’t gear the C8 optimally for any of the variants. If you look at ratios vs the competition, the steps are larger. 5th is a pretty...
Yeah, I agree, 5th is taller than it should be on all of the C8 variants. I’m really not sure why they did this, it has eight gears and in town it...
Nope. RWD, no propulsion other than ICE. Correction to post above, which I can no longer edit: 828 lb-ft peak torque, 800+ from 3000-7000 rpm
New ZR1 reveal today. 1064 horsepower, twin turbo FPC 5.5L V8 w/866 lb-ft torque from 3000-7000 rpm, 8000 rpm redline. 1/4 mile speed in the 9’s...
I assume you have very very smooth roads where you live. Consensus in a thread on this topic at mid engine Corvette form was more or less in line...
It definitely rides a good deal stiffer than the C8 Z51. We’ve got a lot of clay in the soil here and so in the city you do get bounced around...
The thing about the C8 Stingray/Z06 lines is this: is this: they were in a damned if you do, damned if you don’t sit situation in that if they...
The new Ford GT weighs 3381 pounds per Car & Driver, which would put it in the same range as a 458 with fluids, so not out of line with others in...

Unfortunately, GM hasn’t figured out the Porsche trick of removing stuff and charging more for it. :)
I was thinking the same: GM should offer a weight-reduced version of the car for hard core track use (low-weight manual seats, ditch the rear...
On the other hand, there’s a chance that if they made it to you guys’ liking, the rest of us wouldn’t like it. :D And considering they said a...
Yes, this is by design. To defeat it, you can pull both paddle shifters back and go to town. Just make sure the revs die down all the way before...
Actually, when I was looking for the longest time, I planned on getting either a Hypersonic Grey or a Red Mist, and I just couldn’t make up my...
Yeah, you can pick those badges up online for 20 bucks, just like the guys who stick AMG badges on E350s. :) The limited edition package was not...
Hypersonic Grey rocks, I love that color. Really brings out the lines of the car.
Ok. So it’s not a 70th Anniversary Edition then, but it will have 70 on the right side of the insignia at front of hood and on rear deck lid....
@JV’s89 was that 70th anniversary a darker color, maybe Carbon Flash Metallic? The reason I ask is that the 70th anniversary Limited edition cars...
