The cat is out of the bag - 750hp 2019 Corvette ZR1

[HellPIG]

I think it is offered with a smaller spoiler. Not a fan of the looks. Overall like someone else said, the carbon Z06 package is the best looking one out there. Wide and aggressive. Add a pulley and a tune and it is more than you will ever need for the street.

I can't imagine what someone would do with this thing on the street

 

[Stink Star]

Not really. Everything on that car is functional. Where as the Honda is not functional.

I mean not to be the killjoy here but you realize the type-r is actually really fast around a track right?

will it be faster in a straight line than a hellcat demon?

What I mean is that all the oversized scoops and intakes are mostly non-functional. The Type-R looks like it does because of styling, while the ZR1's intakes are there because they are required. The CTR's styling could have been much better and more streamlined without changing its performance.

Almost certainly

 

[Stink Star]

The real question..... who buys this car with the knowledge that GM is releasing a mid engined Zora soon? I mean the new “paint plant” is already built for it and everything and once that car is out nobody is gonna give a shit about the C7 anymore

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Actually once the Zora comes out, maybe deals on C7 ZR1's could be had.

 

[Mook]

When the name is the Zora, no one is gonna buy it so it wont be a problem.

 

[SHARKBITEATTACK]

No window on the hood to show the plastic engine cover? I'm out...

 

[CMNTMXR57]

You could probably see it through that front mug though.

 

[Mook]

Dunno if some of this info has been shared or not or if it's even real..

I got a painted cover in my basement if you want to buy one

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

this one seems better on the eyes

Maybe in person it will be better.... still don’t like it.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

Almost certainly

como say what ?

The front intakes will have to grow on me, I know how necessary it is and what it means for mods to be able to suck that much air in. I would like to know lap times with and without the wing.

Maybe there is a way to rate sketchiness or chance of poop in pants around the track without a wing.

I wouldn't want to drive that thing without it if I was tracking it. But what do I know it had 5x the horspower of what I drive.

I'm assuming the Demon isn't going to be running around the street on its DR's. I'd say from a dig the Demon would have a few cars on it, but from a roll, the Vette all day er day.

I know the aero bits are functional, but GM could have done a bit more design to incorporate them into the C7's shape. Also, GM should have done an active aero setup on the rear wing. I thought I had read they were working on one with the ZR1, but that wing looks static.

when I hear "in a straight line" I guess I think of the 1/4 mile.
not high way roll racing.
besides the Demon is geared for the strip

 

[pulseczar]

For fear of ridicule...... I don’t think that front looks very good. The lip makes it look off. I’d much prefer the zo6

Could be just the angle of the photo though.

It isn't a very flattering photo angle at all so that doesn't help.

 

[Rent Free]

Ill go out on a limb and say the ZL1 camaro front bumper looked goofy as hell in pitcures too but when i got to see one in person i was all

Id expect the same from this.

 

[Mook]

120k is what they're guessing for cost. Lots of details in here.
