Q: What which car looks better out of the Dodge Viper SRT-10 or the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1?
which car do you really think looks better
i know that the zr1 is faster than the dodge viper but which car do you like
A: You should also consider that such a car may be expensive to insure. Check your insurance rates before buying one, for example here – carinsurance.yoll.net
Q: Which car is better out of the Nissan GTR R35 & Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 in the following categories?
Looks (the head turner) 1st… 2nd…
Perfomance (highway killer) 1st… 2nd…
Comfort (spine comforter) 1st… 2nd…
Thank you for answering and i will be sure to give the ten points to the best answer
A: CORVETTE ZR1 in all categories that you’ve listed, PLUS a few more….
1.Price/Value
2. 0-60 times
3. 1/4 mile times
4. Top Speed
5. “WOW” factor (from Intelligent people!)
Q: If you asked anyone if they knew the difference beetween a $45,000 Chevrolet Corvette and the ZR1 Corvette wo-?
-uld people mostly not know the difference if you showed them both cars from a distance. Because to me they look exacly the same exept the ZR1 has a airhole in the front bonnet. What I am asking is could a $45,000 Corvette pass as a $100,000 dollar ZR1 Corvette do most people not know the difference, and is buying the ZR1 a waste of money. Thank you.
A: A regular Vette could pass as a ZR1 to most people, but anyone who knows their cars would spot the differnece right away. The ZRI has overhead cams. It is a peppy motor , but is plagued with many problems. If you are going to spend 100 Grand you can do a lot better than a ZR1. If Chevy is what you are after check out the Z06 Corvette.
Q: which is faster a 2008 DODGE VIPER SRT 10 or a 2009 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ZR1?

A: 2009 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ZR1
(trust me♥)
Q: Which car would you rather have: Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Dodge Viper SRT-10, Audi R8?
i like all the cars and im ready to pick any
ive asked my family a similar question
and the results were
jaguar xkr = 5
chevrolet corvette zr1 = 9
dodge viper srt10 = 9
audi r8 = 9
mercedes cl = 7
ive checked websites like
Top Gear
Fifth Gear
Motor Trend
Edmunds Insideline
Forbes
and they have all come out with similar results
please which car would you rather have
Thank you
A: I’d choose the Audi over anything built in America. Not that I don’t love American made cars but when you are talking $100,000 supercars nothing is going to beat German engineering.
Q: can you blow your engine on a Chevrolet corvette zr1 if you go 220 mph?
A: Probably not. My car has a built it rev limiter that will only let it get to a certain top speed.
Q: Which is faster, a 2010 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 or a 2010 Nissan GT-R?
A: Definitely the Corvette ZR1, but it’s not a fair comparison. You’re comparing a turbocharged 3.5 V6 to a supercharged 6.2 V8. 638hp vs. 485hp and a big torque difference. The GT-R would however, give the Vette a run for its money and probably match a Z06.
Q: which car would you rather have and why Chevrolet Corvette ZR1,Dodge Viper SRT10,Nissan R35 GTR?
Which car would you rather have and why or if you know a better car for the price of $110,000 or less please give your suggestions
A: I would rather have the Viper. The Nissan’s transmission is junk, and Nissan won’t warranty it. The Corvette looks just like every other Corvette out there. The Viper is unique and rare. People turn their head when they see a Viper.
Q: WhatWhich car do you think is better: Nissan GTR R35, Porsche 911 turbo Cabriolet or Chevrolet Corvette ZR1?
which car would people on the street look at the most
which car looks cooler and you will rather be seen with
performance
looks
comfort
quality
practicality
which car do you now think is better
and for each category can you please write why
Thank you alot for answering
A: Looks: Skyline, because everyone like them even I don’t really like Skyline
Coolness: Corvette ZR1, cause I’m a Corvette FAN!!! Porsche and Skyline look like a coupe instead of Sport cars
Performance: Always count on ZR1, it’s born true sport cars with the skidpad, speed, and safety
looks: Again, Skyline, but Corvette are better
Comfort: the ZR1 is a CITIZEN sport car, so they’re designed to be comfortable, any choice of seats, adjustable (Options), good steerings too, and BUNCH MORE
Quality: Porsche, they’re cars built for wealthies, so they gets high quality, except the Boxster, and the Cayenne messed it’s name up
Mainly, the ZR1, there are too much Porsche on the street, so I’m tired of them and I never liked them, Skylines… I just don’t like them that much, but they’re cool. Since Corvettes are born true sport cars unlike the Porsche’s Cayenne that killed it’s name, Skyline too, but I will prefer the ZR1, since it’s AMERICAN MUSCLES! American spirits! they’re catching up to everyone, and the SSC Ultimate Aero acutally uses a Corvette’s engine that are customized to the top.

Q: Which car would you pick if you had the choice: Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Audi R8 V10, Dodge Viper SRT10?
if someone was offering these cars as a choice for a present and you can only pick one, which car would you pick
Thank you
A: Vette ZR1. The car is insane! 638 horsepower. I’m gettin’ a hard-on just thinkin’ about it.
Q: Is Chevrolet planning at anytime to make a Corvette ZR1 Convertible?
I like Corvette’s but i want a fast convertible and all my friends have been telling me to get a dodge viper but the performance of the corvette is way better
so i wanted to know if they Corvette were ever going to make a ZR1 Convertible
thank you
A: There are no plans so far. Keep an eye on the major auto shows like the upcoming Detroit Auto Show. This is when General Motors will debut their concept cars.
I agree with ls1bird. the roof is a major structural component of a car. Making this car a convertible would introduce body flex and reduce it’s outstanding cornering abilities.
Q: Aston Martin DBS vs Dodge Viper vs Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 vs Bentley Continental GT vs Porsche 911 vs Audi R8?
Out of all the above cars, rank them in the order you want them. List what are your criteria, and why did you chose them in that order. Also list the pro’s and con’s of each. Note that you are most likely living in an urban setting, and the weather is not always perfect.
Just wanting to know other people’s opinions. You can also go ahead and list other cars including Lamborghini Murcielago, Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari Enzo, Mercedes McLaren SLR, Ford Shelby Mustang, Cadillac CTS-V, BMW M3, Bentley Arnage, BMW M6, Rolls Royce Phantom, Lotus Elise, Maserati Granturismo S, Jaguar XK, etc.
No idiotic or stupid remarks please. Thank you.
A: 1. Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro
2. Bentley Continental GT Speed
3. Aston Martin DBS
4. Dodge Viper SRT10 American Club Racer
5. Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Why?
R8: All-wheel-drive for the bad weather AND a beautiful 5.2L V10.
Bentley: Perfect sleeper. Once again AWD, but a twin-turbocharged 6.0L W12 makes this the fastest production saloon in the world. And one of the most feature-packed I might add.
DBS: If looks were the only criterion this would be right smack-bang up the top of the list. But the R8’s performance shows it up. As does its price tag. Bit too expensive for something that’s marginally faster than a DB9.
SRT10: Fastest production car around the Nurburgring North circuit, and looks menacing as hell, but I wouldn’t want to own one.
ZR1: Even uttering its name is starting to get a bit old really. Loads of power, but useless (read:deadly) in wet conditions, the interior is god-awful, and it’s becoming just more and more like a normal Corvette given the amount of press it’s gotten.
Q: How would you call this race: Ford GT40, Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Dodge Viper ACR, Ferrari 430SC?
Excepting the GT40, all of the above were reviewed in Road & Track, February 2008. The venue for this hypothetical contest is Infineon Raceway, Sears Point, CA, USA, involving forty laps of the American Motorcycle Association-spec seven-mile loop–the venue is used by CART, NASCAR, NHRA, IHRA, DHRA, &c., and as I understand things was recently added by Indy Racing League. If FIA chose this venue for a Formula One event, their preferred course would probably be the same one used by AMA for Superbike races.
Order and intervals of finish, given equal drivers, would be appreciated.
A: Well, the first thing to look at is the track… Infineon is a wonderful flowing track that places cars almost in constant transition, putting a premium on handling. This is one of my favorite tracks as a driver, and certainly one of the more challenging and more technical.
The Ford GT would seem to be well suited for this track… but I would have to go back to personal experience at having seen two Ford GTs at events at this track. Both suffered failures under less than stressful driving that required them leaving via a flatbed. As finishing is a requirment to winning, The Ford GT scores an impressive result on paper, but in the end, I don’t think it’s a genuine track car as was the original GT40. Mark it down for last place.
The Viper has made great strides in recent years as a track car. With the issues of the inadequate brakes of the earlier cars now firmly addressed, and small improvements all around, it’s a really great car, and one that should hold up (where some of the earlier cars might of been prone to ending the same as the GT). However, the nature of the track does not play to the Viper’s strong points, and the quickest part of the track (the esses) will work against it as the weakest handling car of the group. Mark it down for third (could easily get a better result at a different track with more straights and low speed corners).
Which brings us to the Corvette and the Ferrari. Both cars have alot of strengths… but ultimately it would come down to the power advantage of the Corvette against the chasis and braking advantage of the Ferrari. The ZR1 looks like it will be pretty amazing, but it would be a feat if it comes close to the Ferrari in terms of chasis balance, poise, and rigidity.
This would give the Ferrari an advantage in a couple key spots on the track, which should compensate for the couple spots where the ZR1 could really take advantage of it’s power. Giving a second place to the Corvette, and the winning spot to the Ferrari.
The longer the race, the more the advantage would go to the Ferrari, given the better balance and less power and weight, the Ferrari should also do better on brake and tire wear where the others would eventually lose time to both of these.
Q: 2009 corvette ZR1 or Nissan GT-R?????
Who will be King?
During testing this week at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, the supercharged 638-horsepower Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 turned a lap of 7:26.4, quicker than the 7:29 set on April 16-17 by the Nissan GT-R, which is believed to be the lap record for a mass-produced sports car. Tadge Juechter, Corvette Chief Engineer, says, “The vehicle is exactly like the cars that will be built in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and sold around the world later this summer.”
A: ZR1 without a doubt. I like the GTR Skyline but im not sure what i think about its latest styling. I guess i’ll have to wait till i see it in person.As for whos fastest I think you just answered that question for all of us.
