Yes obviously... Because Ford closed it down before making enough of them to satisfy the market, they have since gone up in price. I dont see how that 1 car redeems the entire US car industry. Especially since its virtually just a European car with an american engine.
And for those going on and on like a broken record about the interior, if your looking for luxury to cruise town in do what the old folks do and buy a buick or since you've got the dosh go get a custom interior made.
i don't know either why fags complain about the interior of the 'vette i think this ZR1's interior looks quite nice and has a good feel to it also. If people complain about the interior then go buy yourself a nice living room set and stop bitchin' about the corvette's insides.!
Pretty nice? Its possibly the worst quality car in the world for its price. Its Porsche money and for that you get squeeky plastic interior with the steering wheel out of a Chevvy Malibu and seats out of a mail order catalogue. US cars are cheaper because there is no money spent on buildquality, technology or styling. And quite frankly... Your dollar is worth half what it was when you was a teenager. So naturally importing stuff like oil and cars will be more expensive now days.
@Janusha it's quite obvious you're just typing out of your ass! how do u know it has a squeeky interior? Do you own one? or got the pleasure in test driving one? I assume you dont! I think most unknowledgable people still confuse the C6 vettes interior with the C5s which in no way they come close, it's a major step forward. Chevy did a much better job on the C6 than they did on the last generation. Like i said i think fags complain about interiors, so i'm guessing the shoe fit you perfectly!
@Janusha These cars cost the same as a porsche 911s4 which does not even compare in perfermance of a regular 430hp vette, if I want the turbo s I need to spend an additional 100k. Now you tell me what makes sense. I just purchased a zr1 its my third vette, I took the time to test drive the 911 and came away wondering where the thrill was. Well for me the thrill was saving a hundred grand. Porsches are on every corner and they all look the same, the zr1 are few and far between.
There are currently 23 different versions of the Porsche 911. Before you start on the equipment list. Like Porsches cars, their business model is infinitly more modern than a Corvette. You tested a 911. Well they range from entry level sportscars to track ready GT2 RS and 1200hp 9FF madness. Im not a Porsche fan myself but they are MUCH more modern cars. Even tho some Corvettes have learnt to take corners they are still cheaply made and compensate brute force for lack of sophistication.
Always the same with you guys... Discredit me and my statement without telling me where you disagree or what exactly Ive said that is wrong. Just because you dont like it doesnt make it wrong. Always talking about how the god damn ZEE AAR ONE is best in the wooorld and when its beaten, its suddenly all about being cheaper. I wonder... IF it really is the pinnacle of automotive excellence at a fraction of the price. Why the fuck dont people buy it ? Vipers died. SSC Aero sold 14 cars....
@Janusha Yes we are discrediting your statement about it being the worst quality car of the money, I've had 2 z06's and now have a zr1 and not had any issues with either one of them, they look a darn site nicer than any 911 and have the performance and appeal that the 911 just doesnt have. 911's are boring, and cost a god damn fortune to own. If I had endless money I'd consider the turbo s, nothing else. I mean even that looks like your everyday run of the mill 911.
Ive never said the Corvette is shit... Im sure the steering wheel out of a Chevvy Malibu is fine. It just shows the level of commitment and how their primary concern is price.
Im no fan but there is no denying Porsches are infinitly more modern than the ageing Corvette. Porsche outsells Corvette in USA and sell 120 000 cars a year. Viper sold 2-300 a year and died. You should know you tax "imports" to protect domestic brands and add luxury tax on top of it to force them up in price.
Its not just supercars for the rich america DONT make. Its also GT cars, Sporty saloons, Sporty SUVs, hatchbacks, hothatches, traditional sportscars, superminis, track cars, and certainly no executives. Infact no cars at all aimed at the upper market. Leaving European cars to completely dominate. How you cant see this is a mystery to me.
In a country where you can buy a 50 million dollar mansion, as soon as a car costs more than 100 000, its somehow wrong and "unamerican".
@Janusha Sure I paid dearly for this car and I can tell you that if you have never sat in a zr1 and pushed the go pedal, then you do not understand and will never understand that it isn't about the money, its about the rush you will have, like no porsche will ever give you, I've driven the new gtr and came away with mixed feelings just like the porsche. It just didn't give me that ear to ear grin like the zr1.
Im sure you will enjoy your Corvette. Just that you guys always have "mixed feelings" because there is no flag to wave for a Porsche or a Nissan. Its weird how the Corvette gets compared to all kinds of cars. Nissan, Porsche, things with half the enginesize and rear seats. Mercedes, Bentley, Ferrari, stuff with twice the quality. Because quire simply america offers nothing else that can be compared. This pathologic aversion towards anything foreign is what is really going on here.
@Janusha No aversion to foreign here, the zr1 just makes sense. btwI also own a 2012 a4 quattro which is great for our crap weather and will do quite nicely till the snow melts. :)
I would pick a Corvette over a soul-less all-too-german Porsche too. But there is no denying whats the better, more modern product. Still.. I find it amazing how americans allow Europe to occupy the entire 100% of the upper market in america. From BMW and up there are no competitors. Infact you buy 40% of our supercars. Much like the enormous US motorcycle market is completely dominated by Ducati, Yamaha, Honda and so on while USA makes Harley. Patriotism on wheels with saddlebags.
@GenIIIV8SHO Thanks for the details on that. Magneride is an amazing technology, worth a read. Its funny how offended Ferrari fans get when you tell them GM makes the suspension for some models. I notice ZR1 fans like Ferrari, but Ferrari fans hate the ZR1. I think thats a sign that Chevy did a good job this time.
the 1800Hp. mosler frome nelsons racing engines was less than an enzo but I think I am safe to say it will leave one looking at it's taillights or any other prancing pony thear is or raging bullor godzilla and it's a mosler proof of american car building tweekd By someone like tom nelson nothing will touch it
Yeah yeah build your Moslers, Saleens and SSC crap. Then wonder why americans still line up for 2 years for a new Ferrari.
Americans in their dillusions dont realize that there is no achievement in putting 1000-2000 hp into a car. Anyone can do it. When european supercars dont, its because its totally and utterly pointless. As is reflected in the american supercar sales. They didnt even sell 100 cars between the 3.
Thats total failure. Tom Nelson my arse. Try a bit of quality and style.
To Janusha (Jackass), Americans and everybody else lines up for 2 years for a Ferrari because Ferrari is a much smaller (boutique) company and they produce a much smaller number of cars than GM. Your just another jealous european punk that's feeling a little threatened by America and the ZR1. Grow up asshole!
Hehe however I turn it I cannot understand how 1 american sportscar is a "threat" to anything happening in Europe. It totally drowns in around 40 different supercar choices here. Its not the second coming of christ, its just another car. And being american its predictably lacking in handling, style and build quality. Sit in it and it wont let you forget that you are sitting in a GM. Sure its quick but its not a supercar. My point was.. why are americans unable to make a single supercar ?
@Janusha The Corvette ZR1 doesn't lack handling or it wouldn't get around the Nurburgring in 7:26 and hold a record. The Corvette has never lacked style and is gorgeous! The build quality is fantastic. Look at a Ford GT if you want a american supercar. Have you ever sat in a Corvette cause if you had you would probably have a different opinion.
Yeah if we are to believe american wild claims and patriotic spam then the god damn Corvette, virtually unchanged for 6 years, is best at MPG, best on racetracks and beats Lambos, Ferraris at everything while costing less. Its all a bunch of hype, wild claims and bullshit.
Its cheap because its the lowest quality car in the world for its price. These lame Nurbburgring laps are set by fully factory backed racecrews in modified vehicles. Why do you think it sells ONLY in USA.
@Janusha The ZR1 isn't "a bunch of hype". If you said the Corvette was a bunch of hype, and it's the lowest quality, in the United States people would be insulted. The Corvette is one of America's best achievements, and I think you're just upset because a ZR1 will beat Ferraris, and Lambos. The Corvette ZR1 that ran 7:26 was stock BTW. Another one of America's greatest of achievements was landing on the moon. Do you think that's a bunch of hype as well?
Speed and power is a decission... Not an achievement. Its got a big engine and thats its only redeeming feature. Only through wild claims and patriotic hype does it ever become a supercar contender. In the same way that Nissan GTR and Porsches arent really supercars either. Speed is the easy bit. Racecars have done virtually the same speeds since the 60s. Whats changed is technology, buildquality and styling. Which is exactly where america has a hell of a lot of catching up to do.
-And those Nurburgring lap times... First look who ELSE goes to the Ring with fully factory backed racecrews desperate to post misleading lap times with trickery and a full tech crew on stand-by. Secondly... You need to inject a lethal dose of Kennedy grade patriotism directly into your eyeballs to eat american corporate spam without question. If the Corvette REALLY was a supercar. If it really was a Ferrari contender for a third of the price. Why doesnt it sell outside USA.
@Janusha If its "total failure" why does Ferrari use the same made in USA suspension from GM subsidiary Delphi? Why does this total failure go head to head with a Ferrari Enzo on the Nurgburgring? I guess the quality of Ferrari is shitty too since they share major comonents.
Oh dear.. not that old shit again. Ferrari dont make brakes. Nor does Corvette. If they both shop for brakes at the same address... How does that say anything about their cars. The Enzo is what.. nearly 10 years old now.
Lots of companys shop brakes from Brembo. And seats by Recaro in Germany. Its like claiming Ford Focus is equal to the SSC Aero because they use the same headlights.
@Janusha Like I said, Delphi (AC Delco) is a subsidiary of GM. They make the Magneride suspension for Ferrari. Its more than just "They both shop at the same address" Brembo and Recaro are not analogies because they are not controlled and funded by GM like Delphi is. Ferrari buys some of their major drivetrain and accessory components from GM through their subsidiary Delphi, not an independent company like you claim.
Its really funny that you need to dig that deep to somehow validify GM as a fully working quality brand. Im not nearly nerdy enough to research who supplies who with brakes but I can promise you there is no technology whatsoever being exchanged between GM and Ferrari. But.. If GM were to aquire said Brembo company should then Ferrari stop shopping there on principle? There is no international car war for supremacy. The Ferrrari brand alone is worth more than the combined american car industry.
@Janusha Dig deep? Nerdy? I buy Motor Trend when I go on a plane you fucking prick and everything I've said is in there. 99% of people watching this vid know the relation between AC Delco and GM. Just cuz you don't know shit about cars we're nerdy? When you say, " I can promise you there is no technology whatsoever being exchanged between GM and Ferrari" I've told you twice GM's MagneRide suspension! Take 10 seconds to Google it so you can stop embarrassing yourself.
I dont care about brakes. Ill happily discuss cars and what they can do. However details dont interest me one bit. Trying to put american engineering over Ferrari by picking at brakes cupholders or stainless wingnuts.. its just sad. Its like trying to raise Harley Davidson up to the level of Japanese R bikes by comparing saddlebags and the size of the wheels when in reality they are a world apart in technology and styling.
Motor Trend. The most biased reviewers in the world. They always put the Corvette up against everything. Always in a drag race or skid pad. The people that always shout "CORVETTE... BEST IN THE WOORLD" "CORVETTE REWRITES THE BENCHMARK FOR CARS AT ANY PRICE" They talk like they want to sell you the car. There isnt a single critical word "CORVETTE... PERFORMANCE THAT NO OTHER CAR CAN TOUCH" "NOTHING CAN INTIMIDATE OR KEEP UP WITH GMS BLUE DEVIL" how can you eat their words and not get embarrased.
@Janusha Well, after testing, the ZR1 proves to be serpior to most exotic and super cars.. Yes the intirior is not the best but it gets the job done. the corvette was made for speed, not looks.
Compared to a familycar yes. Compared to the real thing.. Its not very spectacular. Its just good for an american since it is the only american internationally competetive performance car.
@Janusha I love Ferraris, I would take one any day over a ZR1 cuz they are way higher quality. You keep saying that and I haven't disagreed. Whats pissing me off is your constant blatant lies that you pass off as facts.
Like when you said, "Nobody ever bought a SSC either youknow"
"They didnt even sell 100 (supercars) between the 3
"I can promise you there is no technology whatsoever being exchanged between GM and Ferrari."
Yes Im sorry about the "They didnt even sell 100 (supercars) between the 3" That was wrong. In reality the number is actually way lower.
You see there is no tradition in USA for criticising cars. Even the reviewers hail them to the skies and behave like they want to sell them to you instead of being critical and factual. Which has allowed american manufactorers to lower standards and get away with crap for years. In Europe they are really critical and hard on any car. Its their job.
American cars are built at reasonable prices so Americans can afford them. Im sorry to say this but if your not driving a Ferrari in italy the alternative is fugly. At least American cars still look nice even if not considered exotic. All that I am saying is if there is something we Americans need to be good at, we will be good at it. Why focus on something that will yield us little or no benifit. Correct me if I am wrong but arent you American?
Ok Janusha. There is a reason why American cars cost less. Its because we can mass produce them and supply them with way better warranties then any other company period. Ok so the 100000 Zr1 Isnt as high quality as a Ferrari F430 but what is the extra 100000 for an F430 actually being spent on??? Other than an interior, the Ferrari is just a scam. Why can we build a better car for the money? WHAT WOULD A $40,000 Look Like Huh? Oh more importantly how would it perform? Reasonable questions, yeah?
Nobody forced Americans to build cheap cars. "but who would buy it " is the answer always when I ask why americans dont produce their own supercars. Well.. 40% of all Ferraris, Lambos and such cars are sold in USA. so basically.. Americans buy european when they have the money. Its easy to overlook the insane quality and heritage a Ferrari, Lambo, Aston, offers when you simply look at it. Its a red car versus the blue american. But the effort, research and quality is simply miles ahead of USA.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
BS.. Nissan GTR is the best bang for the buck.. awesome interior + kick ass speed ..it only costs $78k on road price. ZR1 is a definitely a good sports car with its remarkable power & less weight, but it still lacks some agility. I would say its the king of street cars, but not on track..
The ZR1 is 8th around the NurbRing now. But I think alot of people put too much emphasis on that Ring. Its 10 times longer than any race track, wind alone can add 20 seconds to your time. Its not an official benchmark. Ferrari forexample have their own track where they tailor their cars to suit their customers needs. They dont set it up to do well on the ring. The fastest Ferrari around the Ring now has beaten the ZR1 but its 8 years old. Ferrari and others built several quicker cars since then
590 what? oh the slow italian sausage fest yeah the thing with so much glamour in its eyes that it cant see it just lost to America. Why would you like that ferrari anyway? Its not the fastest but it is the ugliest. The Zr1 is a car built for a man its got a decent interior that isnt gona break your heart if you get it dirty and it has a deep voice. The 599 sounds like a pumped up four cylinder honda! Hahaha a honda!
Yeah right.. Look at the 599 XX, 430 Scuderia or Michael Schumacher's black Enzo here on Youtube. Nothing even close to that ever came out of USA. Its hard for americans to fully grasp the quality and effort put into these cars. Its so far beyond what USA makes. but all you see is a red car versus a blue. Ferrari has the worlds best research facility. They make cars tailored for what they think their customers can handle and enjoy. Ferrari can make anything. The same people make F1 cars damnit.
aero tt is an unsinspired one-dimensional monstrosity. It's profile is tailored so far towards low drag to take the veyrons top speed title that it is left without sufficient downforce for corners. It is not something to boast about. It is an experiment, a malformity.
Even if they do.. there is no fucking way they will keep 1800hp on the road except in a straight line. Which makes it utterly useless except for internet spammers to say AMERICA! BEST IN THE WOORLD while selling 20 cars and wondering why their customers still buy european supercars. Nobody ever bought a SSC either youknow. Saleen aswell died because they didnt sell any cars.
For cars in it's class, you gotta pay double the price. I'll be laughing as me and my son fly by you in not 1 but 2 ZR1's to your 1 whatever the hell 599 you want. :P
You can keep your RENTAL HEAP OF CRAP. Did you know some of the interior pieces are from GM scrap?
You can keep your cheap piece of shit...hope it doesn't break down with you LMAO..don't worry i'll carry your son home in my 599...and trust me he will enjoy it much better....and not to mention look better ;P
nobody gives a shit about warrantys outside american because the cars made in europe and jap seldom go wrong.
I must confirm too that i have seen reliable sources saying that the zr1 interior was made from scrap GM parts... explains the panel gaps, smell of glue and creaking wooden floor.
i've already told you likt 4 times. google "zr1 leaf spring suspension". The first link is a site showing the chassis cutaways chevrolet provided. Not only can you see the leafsprings but they are labelled as such by Chevrolet too. Afterwards come back here and lick my left one.
Unfortunately most racing regulations require the use of coil springs so most road course vettes run coilovers. But the leaf springs are more capable and technologically advanced than most people, myself included, usually think. The truth is if you read up on them they have many benefits over coils and are even more expensive. Chevy uses them for the Corvette based on an engineering decision, not a accounting one, and that is to be respected, cause it works... very, very well.
@PCgeek14 This is one of the most intelligent posts Ive seen on Youtube. Just two of those benefits is a lower center of gravilty and superior polar moment of inertia.
im pretty sure your retarded, did you look at the link i sent you? and not the whole floor is made of wood. the zr1 uses the same suspension as the c6 only the z06 has leaf springs.
yes it dose the ZR1 is just ticks behind the enzo for a fith of the price and you don't have to stop @ the speed bump and wait for the front end to raise the sound system is pounding the air is ice cold the engine is a pussycat around town and @ the redlight and it gets 25 miles per gallon kinda makes a fool of the enzo in My book
In recent decades this is the only worthy car America has made. Considering the fact that both European and Japanese cars have had great handling around corners for years...
This car is astonishing, but considering the cheap plastics that remain, it's still not a Ferrari.
your right but still. which one would u rather pay for? this or the ferrari? id rather buy this and still go just as fast. the cheap plastic doesnt bug me tho so i wouldnt mind it
Ex-Yugoslavia made one example of a small and cheap A to B hatch called the Yugo, which was pretty appalling in general, but it was never intended to be great in the first place. Outside of that, we don't design any cars.
But trying to compare a relatively small and mediocre country, to that of the wealthiest(or ex) country in the world, is like trying to compare David and Goliath.
What i was trying to say is, we should have seen a car of this caliber a lot sooner from the Americans.
This car is one of a kind.Has a time of 7:26 on the most difficult racetrack in the World, the Nordschleife in Germany. And the best about it, cars in that league costs over 200.000 Euros!
Yeah the car is great, but it did make another run of 7:22.4, but yes the car for being several hundred thousand less than an enzo ferrari and it is still faster than it
youre absolutly right. this is my dream car, because its so damn fast. inside line did a vid on the top speed of this monster, and it got to 200.4 and only took like a little over a minute to get there, damn this car is the bomb
MMMMM ,,, chopped liver,,, fryed on rocker panels.. Yeah,,stick my ass in this thing when i turn 90 years old, i'll show you how to crash and burn like a test pilot..love it,,
i dont ignore but usa cars have many power but bad handling....
look the mustang
many power bad handling....this i mean
i hope you understand me because my english :D
and a european car make with simple only 400 ps the same 0-100kmh (0-60mph)time when a 450 ps usa car...BUT usa cars go better and better in next sooome years i think usa cars are good as european caes..
corvette adn dogde viper are cars with manz horsepower but but steering
and
look to a engine from a europe car maker and from a usa...you can see that simple porsche drive from 0-100 the same time but with less horsepower then vorvette or viper i hope you can understand me because my english ...
i dont get that, it handles a billion times better than any other 640 bhp supercar in case youre one of those people who ignore the handling of american cars.
u are ignorant, the ZR1 ran a 7:22 at the ring, faster than all 3 cars here. your telling me that it cant stop or take corners(60-0 in 97 feet) come on look it up before u open your mouth on what you dont understand
they are not in the same category man...the GT-R is a AWD heavy sports car that although it has alot of traction for launches, its not anywhere near as powerful as the ZR1...the ZR1 is only RWD and it will tie it from 0-60mph and then just take off and leave it...in the motor trend video of the drag race between them, the 911 GT2 and the 599, the ZR1 destroyed the GT-R by over 8-10 car lengths...and it beats it around the track and in braking too...2 completely different class cars
u must really be stupid lol...go watch the motor trend video of the drag race between the ZR1, GT-R, 599, and 911 GT2....the GT-R gets off the line faster b/c of AWD, but by the top of 1st gear, its gettin burned by the ZR1 and the 599 lol...it plus they have the same 0-60 times...3.8secs...watch the videos, and dont be stupid anymore lol
be real man, yeah the v-spec is fast, but its only ally is the all wheel drive... its tunned different and maybe bigger injectors or whatever...heck i could do that to a ZR1...add cold air intake, exhaust, increase boost, tune it and switch out injectors and be pushing close to 800hp...v-spec is a tuned base model...for the same price or more than the ZR1...id take the chevy
@1991FordGT
Yes obviously... Because Ford closed it down before making enough of them to satisfy the market, they have since gone up in price. I dont see how that 1 car redeems the entire US car industry. Especially since its virtually just a European car with an american engine.

@GenIIIV8SHO Thanks for the details on that. Magneride is an amazing technology, worth a read. Its funny how offended Ferrari fans get when you tell them GM makes the suspension for some models. I notice ZR1 fans like Ferrari, but Ferrari fans hate the ZR1. I think thats a sign that Chevy did a good job this time.

Yeah yeah build your Moslers, Saleens and SSC crap. Then wonder why americans still line up for 2 years for a new Ferrari.
Americans in their dillusions dont realize that there is no achievement in putting 1000-2000 hp into a car. Anyone can do it. When european supercars dont, its because its totally and utterly pointless. As is reflected in the american supercar sales. They didnt even sell 100 cars between the 3.
Thats total failure. Tom Nelson my arse. Try a bit of quality and style.

To Janusha (Jackass), Americans and everybody else lines up for 2 years for a Ferrari because Ferrari is a much smaller (boutique) company and they produce a much smaller number of cars than GM. Your just another jealous european punk that's feeling a little threatened by America and the ZR1. Grow up asshole!

Hehe however I turn it I cannot understand how 1 american sportscar is a "threat" to anything happening in Europe. It totally drowns in around 40 different supercar choices here. Its not the second coming of christ, its just another car. And being american its predictably lacking in handling, style and build quality. Sit in it and it wont let you forget that you are sitting in a GM. Sure its quick but its not a supercar. My point was.. why are americans unable to make a single supercar ?
Janusha 1 year ago
@Janusha The Corvette ZR1 doesn't lack handling or it wouldn't get around the Nurburgring in 7:26 and hold a record. The Corvette has never lacked style and is gorgeous! The build quality is fantastic. Look at a Ford GT if you want a american supercar. Have you ever sat in a Corvette cause if you had you would probably have a different opinion.

@bearguy18
Yeah if we are to believe american wild claims and patriotic spam then the god damn Corvette, virtually unchanged for 6 years, is best at MPG, best on racetracks and beats Lambos, Ferraris at everything while costing less. Its all a bunch of hype, wild claims and bullshit.
Its cheap because its the lowest quality car in the world for its price. These lame Nurbburgring laps are set by fully factory backed racecrews in modified vehicles. Why do you think it sells ONLY in USA.
Janusha 5 months ago
@Janusha The ZR1 isn't "a bunch of hype". If you said the Corvette was a bunch of hype, and it's the lowest quality, in the United States people would be insulted. The Corvette is one of America's best achievements, and I think you're just upset because a ZR1 will beat Ferraris, and Lambos. The Corvette ZR1 that ran 7:26 was stock BTW. Another one of America's greatest of achievements was landing on the moon. Do you think that's a bunch of hype as well?
bearguy18 5 months ago
@bearguy18
Speed and power is a decission... Not an achievement. Its got a big engine and thats its only redeeming feature. Only through wild claims and patriotic hype does it ever become a supercar contender. In the same way that Nissan GTR and Porsches arent really supercars either. Speed is the easy bit. Racecars have done virtually the same speeds since the 60s. Whats changed is technology, buildquality and styling. Which is exactly where america has a hell of a lot of catching up to do.

-And those Nurburgring lap times... First look who ELSE goes to the Ring with fully factory backed racecrews desperate to post misleading lap times with trickery and a full tech crew on stand-by. Secondly... You need to inject a lethal dose of Kennedy grade patriotism directly into your eyeballs to eat american corporate spam without question. If the Corvette REALLY was a supercar. If it really was a Ferrari contender for a third of the price. Why doesnt it sell outside USA.
Janusha 5 months ago
@Janusha If its "total failure" why does Ferrari use the same made in USA suspension from GM subsidiary Delphi? Why does this total failure go head to head with a Ferrari Enzo on the Nurgburgring? I guess the quality of Ferrari is shitty too since they share major comonents.
ronmann606 1 year ago
Oh dear.. not that old shit again. Ferrari dont make brakes. Nor does Corvette. If they both shop for brakes at the same address... How does that say anything about their cars. The Enzo is what.. nearly 10 years old now.
Lots of companys shop brakes from Brembo. And seats by Recaro in Germany. Its like claiming Ford Focus is equal to the SSC Aero because they use the same headlights.
Keep clinging to those straws boy.
Janusha 1 year ago
@Janusha Like I said, Delphi (AC Delco) is a subsidiary of GM. They make the Magneride suspension for Ferrari. Its more than just "They both shop at the same address" Brembo and Recaro are not analogies because they are not controlled and funded by GM like Delphi is. Ferrari buys some of their major drivetrain and accessory components from GM through their subsidiary Delphi, not an independent company like you claim.
ronmann606 1 year ago
Its really funny that you need to dig that deep to somehow validify GM as a fully working quality brand. Im not nearly nerdy enough to research who supplies who with brakes but I can promise you there is no technology whatsoever being exchanged between GM and Ferrari. But.. If GM were to aquire said Brembo company should then Ferrari stop shopping there on principle? There is no international car war for supremacy. The Ferrrari brand alone is worth more than the combined american car industry.

@Janusha Dig deep? Nerdy? I buy Motor Trend when I go on a plane you fucking prick and everything I've said is in there. 99% of people watching this vid know the relation between AC Delco and GM.

I dont care about brakes. Ill happily discuss cars and what they can do. However details dont interest me one bit.

You see there is no tradition in USA for criticising cars. Even the reviewers hail them to the skies and behave like they want to sell them to you instead of being critical and factual. Which has allowed american manufactorers to lower standards and get away with crap for years. In Europe they are really critical and hard on any car. Its their job.

American cars are built at reasonable prices so Americans can afford them. Im sorry to say this but if your not driving a Ferrari in italy the alternative is fugly. At least American cars still look nice even if not considered exotic. All that I am saying is if there is something we Americans need to be good at, we will be good at it. Why focus on something that will yield us little or no benifit. Correct me if I am wrong but arent you American?
buddyboy072003 2 years ago
Ok Janusha. There is a reason why American cars cost less. Its because we can mass produce them and supply them with way better warranties then any other company period. Ok so the 100000 Zr1 Isnt as high quality as a Ferrari F430 but what is the extra 100000 for an F430 actually being spent on??? Other than an interior, the Ferrari is just a scam. Why can we build a better car for the money? WHAT WOULD A $40,000 Look Like Huh? Oh more importantly how would it perform? Reasonable questions, yeah?
buddyboy072003 2 years ago
Nobody forced Americans to build cheap cars. "but who would buy it " is the answer always when I ask why americans dont produce their own supercars. Well.. 40% of all Ferraris, Lambos and such cars are sold in USA. so basically.. Americans buy european when they have the money. Its easy to overlook the insane quality and heritage a Ferrari, Lambo, Aston, offers when you simply look at it. Its a red car versus the blue american. But the effort, research and quality is simply miles ahead of USA.

The ZR1 is 8th around the NurbRing now. But I think alot of people put too much emphasis on that Ring. Its 10 times longer than any race track, wind alone can add 20 seconds to your time. Its not an official benchmark. Ferrari forexample have their own track where they tailor their cars to suit their customers needs. They dont set it up to do well on the ring. The fastest Ferrari around the Ring now has beaten the ZR1 but its 8 years old. Ferrari and others built several quicker cars since then

Yeah right.. Look at the 599 XX, 430 Scuderia or Michael Schumacher's black Enzo here on Youtube. Nothing even close to that ever came out of USA. Its hard for americans to fully grasp the quality and effort put into these cars. Its so far beyond what USA makes. but all you see is a red car versus a blue.

Unfortunately most racing regulations require the use of coil springs so most road course vettes run coilovers. But the leaf springs are more capable and technologically advanced than most people, myself included, usually think. The truth is if you read up on them they have many benefits over coils and are even more expensive. Chevy uses them for the Corvette based on an engineering decision, not a accounting one, and that is to be respected, cause it works... very, very well.

they are not in the same category man...the GT-R is a AWD heavy sports car that although it has alot of traction for launches, its not anywhere near as powerful as the ZR1...the ZR1 is only RWD and it will tie it from 0-60mph and then just take off and leave it...in the motor trend video of the drag race between them, the 911 GT2 and the 599, the ZR1 destroyed the GT-R by over 8-10 car lengths...and it beats it around the track and in braking too...2 completely different class cars

u must really be stupid lol...go watch the motor trend video of the drag race between the ZR1, GT-R, 599, and 911 GT2....the GT-R gets off the line faster b/c of AWD, but by the top of 1st gear, its gettin burned by the ZR1 and the 599 lol...it plus they have the same 0-60 times...3.8secs...watch the videos, and dont be stupid anymore lol

be real man, yeah the v-spec is fast, but its only ally is the all wheel drive... its tunned different and maybe bigger injectors or whatever...heck i could do that to a ZR1...add cold air intake, exhaust, increase boost, tune it and switch out injectors and be pushing close to 800hp...v-spec is a tuned base model...for the same price or more than the ZR1...id take the chevy
