All this means it that the Corvette ZR1 will do the lap in around 1:19.5. Chevy will refine and redefine that car just for bragging rights, but it will be a handfull to drive.

The GT-R can "defy" the laws of physics due to the technology in the car, it is really beyond what Porsche offers at anywhere in the same zip code as that price. Similar with the new M3, just looking at the weight of the car alone will not do it justice.

Such cars with the dual clutch tranny will always appeal to more people than the manual only ZR1, since your noob driver with new money can drive it at 70% capacity with little effort.
