I have a feeling that they won't really like it that much even though it will crush a 911, M3, etcetc. They'll jabber on about "Xfactor" or being a crappy American car... ride too harsh and interior sucks etcetc.

They just don't understand... besides, the ride wasn't bad on the ZO6 for what it was.

you can guess... it is american and they don't like american cars one bit... expcet that caddy CTS... and the GT40...

well i guess you can't really blame them... american cars didn't get better over the years... they just got bigger... taurus is a perfect example. the designs of the cars are also getting worse with all the "retro" offering... and i really think it is pretty laughable that american car manufacturers seem to be proud of their huge 3.5L pushing out 200 horses or so... when there are smaller and more efficient engines every where...

oh well that was my 2 cents. it is probably wrong...

well the reason that they don't like the american cars is because they are big and hunky and heavy as hell

sure a vette is probably more powerful than a 911 or a M3 and is faster in a drag. aka a faster "0-60", and a faster "quarter mile"

but what do you really get... a bunch of numbers... are cars really fairly evaluated by a bunch of numbers and stats? how about the actual track performance? take the lotus elise for example... stats-wise it is slower than the vette in every category...

but which one is a better track car? i think you should know...

that is why i really like what topgear is doing, testing the cars out on a track. that is also why topgear will never thrive in the states... people rather see cars burning out on the drag and see some numbers, not some guy in a white racing suit driving around a track...

Do you remember which episode it was where they review the CTS? I'd like to see that one.

The corvette is more than just numbers. It is a fine track car as well. It is not as exotic or luxurious as the european coupes, but it gets the job done and is much cheaper.

First off.... a 911 or an m3 can take a regular Corvette in a drag, and the 1/4.

Second, the Lotus Elise can take a regular Corvette in a drag, even though it's engine is about 1/3 the size of the 'vettes. It weighs next to nothing.

Z06 is another matter. But keep in mind, the Z06 can keep up with a Ferrari 360 on a track. It's an amazing bargain.
