2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 (620 HP)

I sometimes drive an Z06 and it has crazy horsepower.. It has 505 hp and it will get away from you.. The new ones cost $76,000 however if you look at the Viper and Porsch its a bargain.....

The newer ones hit 60 in under 4 seconds and top out at 196 mph.

I demoed one 2 weeks ago and it was scary fast..... lol it would fly......

A Vette is more than just a 1/4 car. it's a very good track/circuit car (i'd still pick a Porsche Cayman over a Vette but thats just me). So yeah while you may beat a Vette with a highly modded Talon....... it's still a 92 Talon.

That's so true.
C'mon man, a ton of cars can beat a Vet in the 1/4 mile.
People don't spend that kind of money on a vat just to race light to light...that is SO 1980's LOL

If I had Vette money I would buy one. I would not take that same money and put it into a 1970 Nova SS --- and I love the Nova's and Chevelle but I also like BRAND NEW CARS too LOL


Brand Fuggin New wins every day now that I'm over 35!

I think they'll be close to 500hp.

not taking a shot at arabian but he got me thinking about guys who read all the books and know all the numbers but only ever drove 1 or 2 cars.

I have driven many and let me tell you...depending how they are geared them numbers dont mean shit.

my wife has this shitty little Japanese 4x4. it is small with a powerhouse V6.
when I'm on the freeway on-ramp and put the pedal to the flloor everybody''s heads snap back.

now multiply that x10 with any well built sports car and there's more than enough power/torque for you boys to handle on city streets.

I have a cousin who (back in the day) use to say a Firebird was shit compared to a TransAm because the book HP was 15 more...what an idiot he was...I drove the Firebird and it was very fast and very fun and "only a 305" V8

ps. just to qualify my experience, I use to own a 70 Chevelle.
