Everybody chases the Corvette when it comes to performance. It's been that way for the past few generations. When the C7 comes out Nissan will have to play "catch up" again.
Ford and Honda are both solid profitable companies but they don't seem to be taking this performance race seriously. I want to see them get into this. Competition only makes the vehicles themselves better.
@lespaul12001 That's because they don't abuse the vehicles like the other mags do. They've even written an article on why their times are normally lower. Stop being an idiot just because the numbers are slightly off.
@AudiABTr8 fail move on gms part, making a lower trim that out performs the upper trim in some ways, i thought the z06 would have other lighter parts to make up for the engine
@CJAEY Insideline is notorious for poor driving every other review averaged 0-60 in 4.1 secs w/ no rollout. As for an Evo and Sti umm kid they're both AWD which helps substansially in getting better grip. But from 0-100 an Evo and Sti wont hang.

@CJAEY really then why is the zr1 on the top five list at the nurburgring, and evo's and sti's arnt any where near that yea, fuck those ricers, i mean evos are cool but its just a regualar car with a turbo, whoopdi doo!!!
@CJAEY a gtr does all the driving for you , a corvette actually takes skill to drive, i dont just have to move my finger back an inch to shift the paddles
@CJAEY the gtr doesnt have any soul... its all computerized.. plus the Gtr is a porsche wannabe.. get rid of the AWD and make it an RWD.. lets see it keep up with the rest of the supercars of the world.
You people commenting on the 0-60 are messed up! The GS is not about 0-60, it is about having the wide body without having to get the Zo6 package. You can now get the wide body with an auto or even a convertible now. Couldn't do that before. And the wide body is about corning not 0-60. The wide body adds weight so if you want 0-60 you are better off without it.
Interesting...the Grand Sport package has slowed the C6 down in a straight line. Makes you question the actual vs. the perceived intent of this option package.
Vettes are always awesome. But bang for the buck goes to the mustang. CAI + tune = as fast as a vette.

i love the Corvette Grand Sport...those side gills and paint stripes make it much more so awesome than a regular Vette.

I have driven an LS3 powered Corvette and I need to give props to this guy's driving skills! It takes serious skill to bog a launch on a 'Vette!
To Edmunds driver; don't be so arrogant. Use the launch control!

1 mph slower in 1/4 mile (although the same time)

You're obviously being a fanboy dipshit. You even agreed that STi's and Evo's are faster than the Grand Sport.
The ZR1 is worth 3 figures so how the fuck are you gonna compare a high end car with a entry level sports car.
"American muscle ftw, stfu"
Ignorance is bliss, all the newest Camaro's, C6 Corvettes at my local AutoX events get shitted by the tracked Miatas, Evo's, STi's, 240SX's etc...
The Corvette's interior has more interior than a entry level Subaru. So shut the fuck up
