Two cousins instead of brothers - can’t beat the Z06 sound.
For those interested the ZR1 now has the same wheels’s shown on the Z06 (plus center caps). These lightest wheels in the world, including carbon, improve the acceleration by making it appear to the engine that the car’s weight is reduced by some 350-400 lbs, A dramatic reduction thanks to the substantial benefits of reducing rotating weight, with no benefit to top speed.
Oh man...I'm super envious! Dying to hear back from you after you've had some decent time behind the wheel. They both look awesome! You plan to keep both, or what have you in mind?

Beautiful match and IMO the better way to go then duplicate models.
