Sorry, but the ZR1 could be made from ubertanium, have 1000whp, and weigh 2500lb, and it would be so undesirable to me. I just can't get over the mid-life-crisis vibe the car gives off.
OK, I am ducking out for now.
Edit: And to the OP Dilsher....if you even THINK of getting one, I will kick you in the nuts when I see you next time.

Also, I paid $75k for my GT-R, not anywhere close to 100k.. Or are you counting the high markup some people paid? How about the mark ups people are paying on the ZR-1 and ACR's? You can't compare a marked up price on one side against the MSRP of another when you can't purchase it for that.

One guy got a 10.8 at MIR on a stock Z06 with drag radials.. Great time and props to him, but he is the exception. A Z06 with stock tires in the hands of a good driver is a mid 11 car.

There is only 1 race that matters - heads up same day, same track. Everything else is bench racing numbers that should not be compared because of the variables of track condition and weather.
