you might think that someone with a 458 Italia would be rich, but more than likely they are just making enough money at the current time and it is a expensive rental to look cool or have fun on special occasions.
@inallseiriousness Actually, most people that have these types of cars have money, but wouldn't be multi-million'airs. If you look at exotic vehicles that are commonly for sale in the market place, they can have 3 to 5 different owners with only 10-20K miles total on the car. If they were really that rich to own and just drive one everywhere, then it would have a heck of a lot more miles than that for that many owners. For example there is 2010 458 italia on ebay, 2K miles and 3 owners.
@TheTruthHurtsYup True. No average Joe can drive the ZR1 to its full extent without crashing it. But that's what I like about Vettes. There's nothing easy driving a ZR1, and that's how it should be. It feels more rewarding when you really do master driving one. Some people like to live life on the edge. Some people don't. I know I'm not going to change your mind about Lambos. But all I ask of you, is to meerely respect the ZR1 for it's contribution to the supercar community.
@CopperheadViper The ZR1 is a forced induction motor vs. a all motor V10. Not to mention it has AWD which adds some weight and extra hp losses. To me, they are really just two different cars, I was mainly just comparing the vettes goofy rear end to a equally quick AWD car that just plants and goes better in normal road conditions and varying temperatures ect. Some cars need to be professionally driven to be very quick, others can just be driven very quick by regular folks.
@CopperheadViper Getting a ZR1 to do 0-60 in 3.3 is like a feat with everything having to be perfect. Getting a AWD car like say the Superleggera which has a paper stat of 0-60 time of 3.4seconds will be much easier. In dead stop dragging, I would say the Superleggera would easily and consistently beat a ZR1 all day long because of the far improved grip off the line. Even then, my friends Evo would destroy them both for far less money invested and a much better sleeper rocket.
@TheTruthHurtsYup Ya. Driving a Vette is kinda like riding on a bull with its nuts in a vice. That's the fun part about it. That's why they are so popular. The ZR1 is purely made for performance. It dosen't have fancy interior, but it can hit 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. It's got the Chevy Colbalt dashbord, but its lap times on the Nurburgring that make Lambos, Ferarris and Porsches look like childrens toys. Numbers don't lie.

@TheTruthHurtsYup Professionally driven, the Superleggera is no match for the ZR1.
