"Murciélago LP640 $400,000."

 

So its faster and cheaper?

 

 

 

The Murci was never meant to be fast around the ring. They are merely using it as a sensational point of reference, WOW FASTER THAN 400K CAR.

 

The C6Z & ZR1 is faster than a Murci round the ring, as is every GTR ever made (even the $70K 2009 stock).

PT Barnum was right...

Wonder if it's faster than a C6 Z06 with the same tires (not the same sizes).

 

The z06 comes with R Compound tires from the factory? Cause the Z/28 does. Also i heard it has the biggest front tires to ever be put on a production car (285 i think? might be bigger). Pretty sure the rim size is 19x11 front and 19x11.5 rear. Also it has huge brakes front and back (15"+ rotors all the way around, multi piston fixed calipers)

 

 

Also something about the Z/28 it has all there most advance technology at the time (Traction Control, Stability, Magnetic Ride etc.) and then you can also get it with hardly anything in it. I know it comes without sound dead-ener (sp?*) and a bunch of other little things. Manual seats for weight, redesigned back seats for weight, a lot of little things to drop the weight.

 

I predict that this will also become a collector car here in a few years, i dont see them making the Z/28 for long and i predict that they will be worth there money or close too for the next 10-20 years, then after that will become a really nice collectable car. Can't say that i dont wanna drive the shit out of one though, they seem like a SWEET car. Plus i absolutely love the looks of it, best looking 5th gen period.

Z/28 does not have magnetic ride, but it does have the first production application of spool valve damper technology.

Why not buy Camaro ZL1 for $56,000?

And I'm sure this will become a collector thingwhatsit. Plenty of blue collar millionaire in their 70s wanting to be Burt Reynolds.

$75K or not, they will sell all of them.

Sadly, this is probably true. I'm sure they put a lot of effort/thought into testing the market for a sale price.

The fact is has the largest front tire on a production vehicle is actually a negative trait in my eyes for quite a few legitimate reasons.

Z28 is 4 seconds a lap faster than the ZL1. (I am too lazy to look up which track again - it is in the article I think). It really is a completely different car targeted at a different buyer. I don't think DD one of these would be any fun.
