Agreed. A better case could be made for the Viper than the ZR1 though, IMO.

None of those cars are super cars. A Lamborghini Aventador is a super car. The rest are just sport cars.
Damn magazines and people throw the term, "Super car" out too easily. Next a GT500 and a 5.0 will be a "super car"

The saving grace of the GT is that it is its own car; there is no "base" or lower cost version. And it has all the heritage of any exotic supercar. Racing heritage goes a long way, and it doesn't get much better than 4 consecutive Le Mans victories.

/thread.
& After reading this ive come to understand you're just as dense as these other asshats...

I think the 392 is God but ive already said it runs in the 13's @ 108. Yea man thats some God like performance right there.

So let me try to understand your stupidity.

Because I say the 392 could POSSIBLY run with a ZL1 down the 1/4 mile that makes me think they're God like? That must be due to you thinking so highly of a 580hp car that runs mid 12's on average right?

Sorry sir ive CLEARLY stated on several posts that i simply think both the 392 and GT500 PERFORM AS THEY SHOULD. Nothing more nothing less. Nothing special.

The ZL1 not so much. For its HP its a TURD on the dragstrip. Well maybe not on a 40* night on its first pass. All passes after that its a turd due to a air to air intercooler, and crippling tune from GM. AKA great engineering.

On a road course. Its impressive that it can do what it does with that jacked up engineering. Thank God for that suspension.

Now where you're getting the second part about the superchargers i have no idea. Must have pulled that out of little hammers stinky vagina...
