    @Sal30 are you serious? I was debating whether buying the zr1 or the new grandsport and ended up getting the grandsport just because my dream car always had a retractable roof unlike the zr1, i’m just going to add a procharger to raise my 435hp to 620hp just a lil short of the zr1, but while i was at the dealership they were asking for 118k for the zr1 and they were actually willing to drop it down to the starting price in order for me to buy it, the roof is what did it for me tbh :

    lol “pure horsepower race”
    try against GTR Switzer P800 or R1K, no chance ;)

    @Sal30 maybe u just didnt see the video 530hp vs 638 zr1 kills it

  4. CrazyJoemp says:

    did u not watch the video sal30, i bet aything if you put the gt2rs and the zr1 and a 60 mph roll and then see who would win….it would be the vette….the zr1 beat all three cars by impressive lengths…..dont get mad

  5. Sal30 says:

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Kelley Blue Book says that customers are really paying $150,000 for a new ZR1. So much for the ZR1 being cheaper than a 911 Turbo or TurboS.

  6. Sal30 says:

    GT2RS has a WAY better hp/weight ratio and KILLS the ZR1. Even the OLD 2007 GT2 crushed the ZR1 at 5 different tracks and the standing mile.
    The 2011 GT2RS can crush the FUTURE C7 ZR1 any place, any time.
    The GT2RS makes the ZR1 look like a Yugo.

    Actually, no!
    1st : GT2 all the time
    2nd : 599GTB for good performance and traction control
    3rd : Corvette ZR1 for good torque
    4th : Nissan GTR

    @accountok01 yeah right, the ZR1 beats those 3 and so many more!!!! lol ZR1 totally RRROOOCCCKKKSSS!!! dude

  11. jorgelm94 says:

    @CptCumshot right, right, right!!!! you wish it would happen, the ZR1 has way more power than that. ZR1 ROCKS!!!!!!

  12. jorgelm94 says:

    @oliver9523 the ZR1, which in fact is my favorite car, has 638 horsepower, not 683.

  13. meatza10 says:

    @TVRnGTR LOL The McLAren F1 CONTINUOUSLY got it ass kicked by the CLK GTR and Porsche GT1R THEY FRIKING PULLED OUT OF GT RACING BECAUSE OF THE LOSES THEY WERE GETTING. Sure the F1 was dominant when THERE WAS NO COMPETITION but sorry once there was its days were numbered. As for a street car, its near the top but there are still a numberof stock street cars that beat it. Its just getting outdated.

  14. meatza10 says:

    @oliver9523 Clearly you are to dumb to factor in AWD it makes a huge diference. Try making a logical point please.

  15. oliver9523 says:

    wow shocker…
    1st – 683bhp
    2nd – 612bhp… 71hp down
    3rd – 530bhp… 153hp down
    4th – 480bhp … 203hp down

    @arc797 Still no facts pertaining to these automobiles. Kiss a dick you fag. You know you want one in both ends anyway.

  18. CptCumshot says:

    crap… a RUF RT12 with similar HP would blast the corvette away…

  19. Sal30 says:

    @ledgegeg12 It wasn’t the gt2 dummy , it was the gt2rs which has like 100 more bhp than a gt2, and weighs almost 200 lbs less than an Impreza.

  20. TVRnGTR says:

    @accountok01 i still think the mclaren f1 is the king of all cars and has been for 18 years cause of its dominance for a 12 year period and still has records that no other car will ever have again thats why i think the zr1 is a poser and not a king

  21. accountok01 says:

    @NissanIndia How can it be king of ANYTHING when it gets the shit kicked out of it by so many cars?

  22. accountok01 says:

    @JellyBird12 ARE YOU MAD???????????????????????????????????????????

    Your comment is REDICULOUS BECAUES NO Saleen S7 or any version of it HAS PULLED 2.8 to 60mph OR 248 mph how is that hard for you to grasp. NOTE I am NOT saying its not an amazing car Im saying it didnt live up to the claims.

  23. JellyBird12 says:

    @Sal30 Prove it? i havent seen any videos, or a source other than Porsche, neither have you, its just a claim by the company, so unless you can prove it, with ACTUALL evidense, nobody knows if its true or not, Porsche could just be saying that, they could say 6:59.3, and you would believe them, its just a claim, no proof, thats a fact, get over it!

  24. JellyBird12 says:

    @accountok01 like i said, yet again, the S7 has Overachieved it figures, Tests have proven you wrong yet again, look at ALL the claims, then look at the tests, ive given you all the info, if you cant look for yourself, on numouros sites, then i cant help you to believe.
