The Corvette is made of SMC or sheet molded compound with is in part plastic and composed of about 40 percent resin--polyester, vinyl ester, styrene, or a blend of all three--33 percent calcium-carbonate filler, 20 percent chopped fiberglass, and the remaining 7 percent resins and hardeners. This is a revolutionary material that is in its final form neither plastic or fiberglass.......and better than both......and cannot be correctly called either.
COME ON GUYS GTR VS PLASTIC CAR CORVETTE AGAIN ,EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE GTR IS A BETTEER CAR,NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU GUYS COMPARE THEM,HOW ABOUT GTR VS LFA OR MCLAREN ,FERRARI,LAMBORGHINI,EVEN PRIUS LOL ,THERES A BUNCH OF SUPER CARS OUT THERE,MAKE IT INTERESTING!!!! THANK YOU
@sexyboi142 One bumper does not make the whole car plastic... It's one of the biggest overexagerations anti Corvette trolls use to base their pathetic arguements on.
@Greendude33 true but the front bumper is also plastic on the ZR1, most panels of the ZR1 are carbon fiber and plastic if im not mistaken (which i probably am), true enough thats all corvette trolls use is the "plastic bumper" thing. Hell my cavalier has plastic bumpers, not as flimsy as the corvettes tho.
Anyways the Corvette is a good car regardless of its cheap weight saving parts.
@sexyboi142 No the front bumper is aluminum on the Z06 and ZR1 and steel on the GS and base model with the rest of the body steel sheet metal. On the Z06/ZR1 the front quarter panel is aluminum, the doors aluminum, roof carbon fiber (or magnesium on certain Z06 models). The rear quarter panels are aluminum and the rear spoiler is carbon fiber and the entire chassis is aluminum the hoods are carbon fiber and lastly the rear bumper is the only polycarbonate (Lexan) a strong expensive plastic.
@Greendude33 UUUF IT LOOKS LIKE A PUSSY DIDINT LIKE MY CAPS ON MY COMMENT,PLEASE DUDE INSTEAD OF WRITING STUPID STUFF GO PLAY WITH YOUR DOLLS ,IM JUST GONNA TELL YOU THIS. GO GET A FUCKING BOOK READ AND TRY TO LEARN THE FUCKING WORDS .YOU GO AND DO YOUR FUCKING HOMEWORK,YOU SOUND LIKE A FAG.
@Greendude33 DUDE SERIOUSLY GO READ AND LEARNSOMETHING,DONT WASTE MY TIME UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT CARS,ALL YOU CARE IS ABOUT MY CAPS WTF,YOU BE GONE AND DONT WRITE BACK WOULD YA
@remelsheikh conditions are key. The GTR couldn't pull off that number on an everyday street at a red light nor a lightly prepped track. Conditions are everything in order to pull of those numbers.
ZR1/Z06/GS. For me! I have love for the GTR but if I had to choose give me the Vettes!!

@Greendude33 The whole rear panel for the corvette ZR1 (if hes referring to that model) is plastic for weight saving. I assume the Z06 is the same

The new 2013 GT-R does 0-60 in about 2.7 sec with launch control. These guys are noobs.
remelsheikh 1 month ago 27
@remelsheikh 1-It's 2,84s with the LC4 launch control (the video title says 2.7), that can only be used 4 times in a row
2-Inside line times are averaged, the time of that 2.7 video was the best time they could get.
