And yeah. Even so, the Corvette's price won't go even near the Scuderia's, not to mention the standard F430's.

Why wouldn't people who want Vettes want GT-Rs? The Z06 and the GT-R both cost about $70k with similar performance. If I had $70k to blow, I'd look at both. They're both performance bargains compared to the 911s, Ferraris, and RS4s of the world. You're right, the ZR1 will probably cost substantially more, but it's their flagship, and may shut up a few folks who've been hollering about the Skyline that's beating 911 Turbos and Z06s at the Ring. F430s and Modenas are in the different price range than the Vettes and 911s but they still get compared.
What I meant by the second statement was that although I'd rather have a Scuderia, I'm priced out for all intents and purposes. These Vettes on the other hand are something I can buy one day.
