Default Corvette C6 ZR1 Ranks Among Cheapest 200 mph Cars



If you're in the market for a relatively inexpensive car that can crack the 200 mph barrier, might we recommend the C6 ZR1?

I have to disagree with the headline. While the C6 ZR1 is inexpensive for a 200 mph car. It is a quality not a "cheap" car.

Ehhhhhh, I kinda of agree and kind of disagree. While I do think it is above most "average" cars, when compared to other 200+ mph cars, there are definitely others that feel tighter.

And I guess there are others that feel slapped together, but those brands tend to be less recognizable.

YMMV


That being said, I do agree that "cheapest" is the completely wrong word to use. It gives a very negative impression IMO (and anyone that is serious about writing should know that. Unless the intent is to imply a lesser quality I suppose ). Inexpensive, good value, and reasonably priced are all much better descriptors.
