The ZR1 will be twice the price and a track car. The Z06
is about the top car out and the ZR1 will only be marginally faster.
I don't track and never will and this is the Z06 forum last I looked.
If I want a ZR1 I can cash some stock or maybe bonds since I have plenty and buy one but it is not happening.

Happy with my choices!
I'm not childish and I didn't call you childish, just your posts. Carry on.

Next..... no Camaro tail lights on the C8.
I agree. I was never a fan of the "spats". They look cheap\afterthought.

I remember you saying the something similar when you just had your C6 Z06 and C6 ZR1.

I am sure that you will have a C7 ZR1 in your garage in due time.

"if" I did It would be a few years away after the first year prices come down and the ZR1 would need to look better than the camo ones
I have seen.I think my next vette will be the C8 till then the 2 Z06's will do!
Life doesn't suck! Instead of the ZR1 I put an offer in on 87 acres today!

I really like the ZR1, and might end up with one, but I am looking more forward to the C8. It appears that the ZR1 is, or close to being, the C7's swan song.

I don't understand all the hate about the spats they don't bother me at all and flow right into my stage one front spoiler.

The unfinished Spats going the way of the blank looking rear Bumper Cover!?

AND

A 6:55 gets a line trading in!

You hear about the spats it is from the same old haters. Old stuff the spats are fine. Rather have the spats than the small airplane wing on the back on my Corvette street car.

I am NOT a hater. I am just not a huge fan of the spats. I hope that the ZR1 extends the fender to cover the same area as the spats.

I enjoy many of yours attention regularly!

FYI - the painted C7 rear bumper...new info here - Old idea!

The C5's down sloped rear fascia...covered up by a wing!

Stating the obvious is all (Works Here)!

No doubt the "ZR1" is the last C7 model.

Except when they don't.
Splats, taken as a whole, are not much of an eyesore.
However, when isolated, they look like *****.

What are you talking about? None was talking to you or referencing any of the nonsense you post. More of the same gibberish from the guy that can't form complete thoughts.

Those wings look like something a kid would bolt to his Honda Civic sedan.

No, no they don't. Those wings are fully functional and wind tunnel tested. They will actually provide downforce at speed.

Does not discount the fact it looks like it should be on some lowered Civic Sedan with a coffee can exhaust.

The wing is much but I like the front end and rims. More importantly I need to see some power numbers and engine details released.
