Whats wrong with hydbrids or bio diesel vehicles. People, its all about reducing your carbon imprint and the long term effects on the planet. Its 2007 not 1980 Maybe there some compensation for other shortcomings going on around here! :twisted: I’d have to agree with Matt. Whats wrong with hydbrids or bio diesel vehicles.

They can't get it finished, they are having lots of problems meeting any of their deadlines. They have tons of peoples money tied up in a project , that is having lots of issues. They are talking about releasing the car with a single speed transmission , instead of the two speed due to durability issues. All electric ? We already have power issues in California , rolling blackouts anyone ? And how do they make electricity ? Nuclear power and all the leftovers that go along with that , burning coal , yeah thats clean , or fractions of a percent of "green" via solar or wind energy. Keep dreaming about electric powered cars, cause thats all they are. This ZR1 would smoke the Tesla , all day , every day . Tesla isn't even close to the potential of this Corvette.

Same thing. Technology can only compensate for the laws physics so much. The bottom line is the GTR is a heavy pig. No matter what fancy tech you're running, 3800 lbs and 480HP is not going to be faster than 3133 lbs and 505HP. But if your life is to enjoy 3.3 seconds 0-60 then enjoy buying a new clutch every week. That's only 0.1 seconds faster than the fastest 0-60 Card & Driver recorded for a Z06.
