Here is a funny example, with Corvette C5 literally walking away from the newest flagship like if the time stood still for the piece of shit called C7 Z06. Ironically enough, this particular "ancient" C5 has all the right ingredients that the newest flagship failed to deliver: correctly sized supercharged, adequate cooling, low kerb weight and superior aerodynamics, allowing this supposedly obsolete car to literally whoop the ugly ass of the newest flagship.
Considering that cramped and dated looking interior of the newest Corvette is such a throwback to the fourth Corvette generation, maybe this would be a good time for Juechter and other tools to disguise some older Corvettes and pretend they finally got it right?
Peter it kills me to say this but your right I owned a c7 zo6 I put only 663 miles on it and was not impressed at all gm overhyped this car for what I don't understand it So many things wrong with it let me start by saying only after 500 miles I changed the oil myself and it was the darkest dirtiest oil I have ever encountered and I followed the break in procedure perfectly. Second is the heat it put off was crazy on not hot days. Then the power it never felt like 650 hp ever. Luckily I cashed in on the hype and got a c6 zr1 for an even trade. Now I know the zr1 has its flaws but it is a much better car runs cooler great power and the best part after I drive it I can put my hand on the supercharger without getting 1st degree burns. Take it from me first hand the lt4 is not durable or as strong as a ls9 I will stick with my zr1
ReplyDeleteSmart move buying ZR1. With time, more people will realize that ZR1 is the Corvette to have. C6 Z06 would be the second best Corvette but GM killed that one with valve train related problems that were never resolved.
