Talking about wet weather performance. Sounds more like they tested tires instead of cars.

GM is fetching upwards of $100K for frilled out Z06's and $120K for ZR1's. (My vert went for ~ $65K) At those heady prices you can get a lot of car these days. GM needs to step up their development. It's not 1989 anymore

Hmmmmm....... not sure the issue is with tires. My vette stinks in cold or wet weather. Yea, my Pilot PS2's aren't good in cold but other cars run on them (including Porsche) and can gain at least some traction. This car is awful in anything but perfect conditions, no matter how much I feather the gas.

Sounds like you need to sale the car and get another one if you are not satisfied. The vette is a great bang for your buck. 1/4, standing mile, road course, auto X, etc, it is a hard to beat these cars for what you pay.

3000#ish rides running around in the rain on 12 to 14" wide tires? Yeah, I'm sure a Porcha/Ninja/Suprogattie, running the same wide rubber, is going to run right past a vette in the rain.
