What do you guys think? 625 hp 635 tq... whats cool for my dad (he wants a bad ass stock car with auto) is it has a new 8 spd auto that shifts faster than a Porsche PDK dual clutch and the roof still comes off! pretty bad as overall, the widebody and wing make it look serious business like. Hope

The Porsche 911 won this years best drivers car with 100 less hp. There is a reason for a dual clutch. I'd like to know more about what constitutes quicker. As the Lamborghini aventador and lfa have a single clutch type auto and every mag that has tested it has complained.

Vette is sticking with a real auto, not single or dual clutch... it shifts. 08 faster than the pdk. Thats what i meant by faster. Basically think of an auto V with another 80 hp and - 1000 lbs... and 2 extra gears for closer ratio acceleration... and Ryan is right it will be 100 to 140 grand loaded. I just hope they make a candy red or orange so I can drive my dad's as Ill never afford one. Rather have a GT at that point.

Car looks amazing, and will be an absolutely outstanding performer.

Good thing the ZR1 isn't being made anymore, because that car would be close to $200k, and well over 700 HP

Chevrolet hasn't released pricing yet. Where are people getting these price figures? Guessing the same place people got the facts of the new Mustang weighing less than 3,200lbs.

Of course I don't know for sure since Chevrolet hasn't released pricing. I am simply going off of the trend for the Stingray. That car was a serious upgrade from the base C6 and they kept the price very close, just barely more than a C6 Grand Sport. I see the same thing happening with the ZO6. Base car should be slightly more than a C6Z but there are three trim levels, so I see the ZO7 package maybe getting more than $90k.

Fyi, the carbon which was a zo7 was 100k. This is replacing the zr which hit 135ish... there is no way a zo7 costs under 110k. just wont happen.

And a nice z51 c7 is 75 k... little more than a loaded c6 z51 was... by like 20 grand

I think this car is a home run if you plan on leaving a vehicle stock. It has a ton of more usuable torque with the smaller supercharger. The 8 speed auto is going to be cool if it lives up to advertisment. I am worried about the reliablity of all this though as it took many years to make the LS block what it is. Numbers look great on this car though and it will be a hit IMO. The best Corvette is always the latest one.

I was hearing that the maxed out Z06 will not be too far north of 100K. Articles are stating Chevy won't vary far off the current C6 Z06 prices with base pricing estimated at 85K. I imagine that alot of the tech that is going on this car is going to be eventually shared, especially that 8 speed auto (ditching the 6sp one in the current C7).

If it is 100 loaded, that will be bad f'in ass. Good info! They also said though the z51 would be near old prices, and it is far beyond that, so as Alezx says who knows for sure till they hit lots. Still a great car, much improved over the Stingray which was barely better than its replacement.

There's a lot of discussion over on CF about the 1.7L blower versus the 2.3L on the ZR1. The ZR1 did not employ direct injection and the blower does not spin to the same speed as the 20,000 on the 1.7L. Of course you techies can be of more knowledge to all that than myself. Lot's of information to learn.

Exactly pops..... With a loaded c7 costing over 70k I don't think they would price the z0 anywhere close to it and for the performance a 100k price is reasonable. This car replaces the zr1, which was over 100k. Not sure why you think this car is going to be under 100k. No sure why you even have a Mustang if better are that much better....

I have a Mustang because I wanted a Mustang seems pretty obvious. Not sure why that was brought up lol. Hope you aren't taking anything personal, you know you're the only cop I heart :).

If they price the ZO6 based on performance then, you may be correct to assume it will be priced over $100k. I've already stated why I think it won't be that much for a base ZO6 at 11:38.

I dont know about rage quit, but I do know he is bored with his car, and like myself with my Terminator, I bet he doesnt want to throw a bunch of money at the car to make it faster, and still not have any real fun with the car besides an occasional freeway on ramp pull. Vettes are just much more fun to drive, cruise, more comfortable, smoother, and having a Vette to me made me feel fuzzy inside. Having a Mustang just makes me feel empty and sad inside. (the mod motor variety anyway). Anyway, just my take on it, I bet hes just ready for a change in atmosphere, he's had 15 damn Stangs ge said... thought I was bad and Ive only had 8!

No. I dont give a flying fuck about base, stop not reading what i write.

A 2009 Z51 brand new loaded 4lt etc was high 50s. A new c7 z51 loaded is high 70s. I cant compare a 2013 z51 because it doesnt exist, the GS had a lot more cool options to offer that the Stingray doesnt like wide body, dry sump, etc.

Even so a loaded GS was mid 60s which is a better performance car than the C7 which is still over 12 grand more.

New cars, not base models... hope that makes more sense.

Read post 12 again. If you didnt know a z51 is not a base car, nor when i say loaded does this refer to a base car. Just sayin.

A loaded Stingray is almost 80 k, about 20 more than a loaded GS/F55/z51 c6.

No it's not that at all. I have great respect for their personal experience and race knowledge. I don't doubt that they may have in fact seen someone drive a C6 faster than a C7 but, as we all know, that doesn't equate that C6s are faster than C7s. Not stock for stock. If you put the same driver in a C6 in a C7, the C7 will be faster all day everyday.

I don't agree that a few handfulls of instances dictate overall performance and drivers across the board. I highly doubt Chevrolet would spend this much R&D to make more power, use better tires, make the car more slippery to make it accelerate slower than the previous car. I know Ferrari got away with it with the F50 from the F40 but not on the home front :).

Keep in mind, the C6 base car got a hp increase. The C7 has been out for one year, so technically if you're going to compare apples to apples, you compare first year car to first year car. But even still a LT1 is still faster than an LS3 C6.

The C7 Fast List
Last Updated: December 3, 2013

==================
Bone-Stock on Stock Tires
==================
Rank~~ E.T.~~ Trap~ 60'~ Driver~~~~~ M.Yr. Details
3~~~~11.955~~119.62~~1.919~Kyle Lemish~~~'14 M7 non Z51 and no NPP (Post#13)

Showroom Stock LS3 (2008 - 2013)
11.718 @ 119.94 - AndrewZPSU - 08 M6 - (2586)
. So the LS3s are faster eh?

-Alex
Looks to me the fastest manual ls3 car is quicker and faster than your mighty c7's fastest manual time...

as for the ls2/3 thing, they didnt change shit on the ls1 c5 vettes besides the intake, cam, the valve covers, and emissions over 8 year span... so its unknown and not precedent that there will be a LT revision.

I watched a stock LS3 C6 beat the brakes off 2 C7's in person at a car meet in DFW.


That > reading shit on the internet and thinking I actually know what im talking about.


Since my Viper isnt on some master internet webmaster list, does that mean it didn't happen?

And BOOM goes the dynamite. Exactly my thoughts. C7 non z be slower than ls3.:mfr_omg:

Well based on the logic you are using "I didn't see it so it doesn't matter" then absolutely it means your Viper is slow is shit since I didn't see it happen.

So just to use bullet points:

Motortrend tested the C7 faster than C6 with measurable data. Check.
Car and Driver tested C7 faster than C6 with measurable data. Check.
Automobile tested the C7 faster than a C6 with measurable data. Check.
Owners of the actual vehicles tested the C7 faster than a C6 with measurable data. Check.
Official time slips provided show the data of C7s faster than C6s. Check.
Ignore all of that because one guy saw a street race with God knows how many variables at play show someone drive a C6 faster than a C7 so this obviously outweighs the rest of the world.

I've had two meetings with a majority of women today and had to deal with plenty of female employees and this is by far the single most illogical proposal I've seen in a good long while. Thanks for the laugh.

When did we start comparing the LS1s lol? This was a debate(if you can call it that) about the C6 and C7. You're all over the place tonight lol.

Yes Junkie, you are obviously right. C6s are definitely faster than C7s because you saw it happen.............once...............at an amateur street race..............with no official times.............or measurable data.

U were basically saying there was probably going to be a LT revision in the c7. I was stating just because it happened in the c6 doesnt necessarily mean it will in the c7 using the c5 history as an example.

Decided to respond to that vs the c6 time being faster than the C7 time that u posted. Good call and misdirection.

Just so you know, Junkie and i both like the c7, just dont see a 20k bump in price with the way it performs... if it was 50 k loaded like it should be, itd be a pretty sweet car. Id pay 30 k for a 1 year old one like i did my c6..

That's fair.

That's fair, deciding price is subjective. Performance data isn't.

I understand your view on it. Junkie is apparently either just trolling like there's no tomorrow or having his own personal beerfest.

Not trolling at all

I just think real world experience > better know it all google'ing shit from forums.

I base my opinions on what I see, in DFW, while out at races and car events. Not what somebody half way around the country posts on the internet on some retarded list.

If I based everything on internet list, im sure I would end up like you. No experience, referencing other peoples accomplishments.

But you understand that the real world exists outside of DFW right? You're not the only person with real world experience and those people's experience's count just as much as yours. That's all I am saying.

Speaking of that, some guys and I from work are planning on going out somewhere to race this weekend if things stay consistent. Any recommendations on a good 1/4 track aside from Ennis? That's kind of far.
