An Interesting Comparison
Here is an article which starts out as a summary review of the new Lambo but at the end, brings up the compare of the new Z to it. I think it a valid compare noting that the cultural impact of the Lambo is greater but the performance of the two is roughly equal.
I post here instead of the C7 forum because those guys seem a bit angry about any and everything. Maybe a few of the less angry will drift in here and comment.

I agree the Corvette is not a Lambo because it is its own car in its own way with its own "American Sports Car" image. The Corvette also has a place to stow some luggage especially the coupe.
The article actually seems to prefer the Corvette over the Lambo unless you are in it strictly to impress other people. I have driven both and for a daily driver and road trip machine the Corvette is the best.

Yeah, it was written in a nice British key.
My take away was that the author felt the Lambo was well into diminishing returns - a rather obvious claim.
He didn't mention the obvious to me which is one in a Lambo would be considered, in almost all cases, quite pretentious while a Corvette is, well, at least less so.
