ZR1 is a disappointment

I really do feel like Chevy dropped the ball with this car. I comend them greatly for what they have done but Jesus it’s not a new car by any means. The lt5 “stupid name since it’s not unique or DOHC” is just a better lt4 lol. And the rest of the car is either a carry over or is just an extreme version of the z06 and where da **** is the 10r80. Even though ford is being an old man and not doing jack **** with the 18 Mustang. They took a major risk with the voodoo engine and that’s what I want Chevy to do. Take a risk and make something special not a hot rod version of another trim

You get it Turbo Junky. It could be an epic battle. I'm calling my Chevy dealer today!

Next profanity laden troll comment gets handed the lock
The ZR is following the C6 history. Base Model Z06 Grand Sport King of the Hill.
There will always be the next big thing. The ZR lMO looks pretty impressive

2018 model year may not see a new Mustang worth talking about but before the year is out.......the cars that spy shots show as having a "roll cage" in it just might be something to talk about.
A roll cage from the factory in a street car seems CRAZY for it's impracticality...........but then starts to make a whole lot of GOOD SENSE if the car is a certifiable sub- 10 second 1/4 mile runner.
Nobody speculating knows for sure what's up with the re-introduction........but you have to believe that Ford is targeting the Demon for a "take down"........ big speculation on this one isn't about how fast or how powerful though.
A lot of people are wondering if it'll be turbo charged or super charged.
The whole "eco-boost" thing across Ford's newest offering line up......suggests this might be a turbo charged car rather than the Supercharged V8 we think of in the 13-14' version last released and the cross town rival ZL1 Camaros and Hell Cats.

Isn't it about time for the Porsche humpers to chime in and tell us how much better the $1,000,000.00 918 is than the C7 ZR1.
