The only downside of this car is its interior. For a $120k sports car, I would've expected better seats and better interior materials.But overall, you cannot ignore the ZR1s inane performance and insane handling, not even if you're an Italian supercar fan.
Here's what's possible when you apply everything you've learned in racing and engineering for a single car - the Corvette ZR1 (very limited availability). With 638-hp LS9 engine was supercharged and superior test-track speed of 205 mph, it was GM's fastest production car of all time. The ZR1 is the overall winner of the 2010 Car and Driver Lightning Lap competition, which pitted it against the ZR1 the fastest car in the world.
ZR1 engineer was religious about keeping the ratio of power-to-weight advantage. So they set a high strength, lightweight materials wherever possible. One example is the aluminum frame structure (the same used on the C6.R race cars), which weighs 138 pounds. less than an equivalent steel structure. Results: The ratio of power-to-weight highly profitable by 5.2 kilograms per horsepower.
ZR1 is powered by a LS9 6.2-liter aluminum block V8 is equipped with four-lobe supercharger Eaton ® Twin Vortices Series ™ with intercooler. This provides an SAE-certified 638 hp at 6500 rpm and 604 pounds - ft of torque at 3800 rpm. Engine employs lightweight titanium intake valves and connecting rods, and contains a high performance dry oil-flood system, which distributes pressurized oil from an external reservoir to protect the critical components in high-g driving conditions.
Corvette provides a premium driving environment with rich options such as leather cover on the upper instrument panel, door panel uppers, console cover and surface sport seats with leather-Wrapper Custom Interior Package available on 3ZR trim level. This option also gives you the opportunity to personalize your Corvette with contrast stitching in Red, Yellow, and Blue.
The ZR1 offers great stopping power, thanks to carbon-ceramic rotors Brembo brakes which weigh nearly 50 percent less than equivalent metal units. In addition to reducing overall mass, they are able to operate at 1,000 degrees Celsius (hot like molten lava) without warping. The system uses six-piston front and rear four-piston calipers involved vented, cross-drilled rotors.
