I'll give to the Z06 as well, but it's still a drivers race. Most people are not competent enough to drive either of these cars, however.

The fact of the matter is the base model Z06 is still 20k...

Oh it is? Last time I checked the ZL1 isn't even in the same category. I'm telling you its going to be a drivers race against a Z06 down a drag strip. If that scares you or makes you upset, then I'm...

That's a cute little move to take the emphasis off the fact that the GT500 still does 200+ MPH, and the only GM vehicle capable of that is the...

The new GT500 is competition on a drag strip for a Z06. Not on a road course, but I think it will be a drivers race on the drag strip. It's already trapped @ 129 MPH which is indeed Z06 territory.

It's all bench racing for now, but I predict the excuses for when the GT500 beats the ZL1 to be:

1. The Camaro still looks better
2. (if applicable) The cars weren't run on the same day, with the...

Probably a very conservative factory tune pulling timing. They do have to meet 50 state emissions as it is.

Supposedly a tune only should yield 30+ whp on these cars, and I don't doubt that.

See Torsen differential and Carbon fiber drive shaft. Also I believe the clutch has reduced rotating mass.

Don't worry, there will be more dyno numbers to prove it.

That's what I don't get. I hope that these guys know that GM is hiking up the price on the ZL1 $1995, so where's that argument now?

Hmm that QC hold on the ZL1 sure does seem fishy now doesn't it?...

Why are you dancing around the question at hand. Most of you have been honestly level headed. These are both fast cars, and both owners win.

The fail is strong with you, son.

The 2013 vert is 3 seconds faster than the 2012 PP coupe on SEBRING, not on VIR.

That argument was put to rest 2 months ago.
