Man I hope that's just a concept because, personally i think that looks attrocious...Takes the sleek smooth sexy corvette and makes it butch.
BTW, thanks for the scan. It was a good read. |

the new z06 is definitley my new favorite now that it is official 427 500hp/500tq. i am generally a ford guy and i love the new GT but i really think the z06 will be just as good if not better and a lot cheaper. |

I still think the new Vette is hideous...it's just plain ugly. I'd love to see that performance is a nice body...but I just cant stand the look of this thing.......the Gen5 shape, was the best looking Vette ever (Sorry I think the classics ones are hideous aswel).

I liked how they did the track comparison and graphs.
Interestingly Willow Springs has been the site for a number of test by different magazines comparing the corvette with other cars and the 911 as well. The interesting part is that the lap times haven’t changed very much for the Vette. Possible this is due to the extremely stiff suspensions of earlier model C4 verses the softer C5 and C6 suspensions. Here are some examples: 1984 C&D 911 Carrera Turbo Look 1:43.8 1986 MT Corvette Z-51 1:39.8 1986 MT 944Turbo 1:43.5 (this was a comparison tests to the above Vette) 1989 C&D Corvette Z 51 1:41.0 1989 911 Club Sport 1:44.2 (They mentioned they could have lapped faster but were afraid to push the 911) 1992 Corvette 1:39.5 1992 Same issue as above NSX 1:39.9 1988 Automobile Magazine 911 Turbo driven by Derek Bell 1:43 1988 Automobile Magazine 944 Turbo S driven by Derek Bell 1:41 1993 Corvette 1:40.7 1993 Same issue as above Supra Turbo 1:39.0 & 300ZX 1:41.6 2003 R&T 350Z Track 1:40.1 2003 R&T M3 SMGII 1:40.1 2003 R&T Corvette Z06 1:36.5 2003 R&T 911 Targa 1:40.8 |
