Now there is a Corvette priced like a Porsche. Before when the Corvette or Z06 was compared to a Porsche the price difference was always a major factor. The new comparisons will be interesting.

The more I have been thinking about it, if I was in the market for a $125,000 worth of sports car, I think I would get the ZR-1 over many of the fantastic used cars in the $125K range.
Porsche 911T, Gallardo, GT3 etc.
Am I sick for imagining how cool it would be to buy the ZR-1, and then pull the FI setup out, and put in a crazy NA setup?
I am thinking that would make an insane HPDE car.. a 600+rwhp NA ZR-1 hehehe

I was tempted to ask my dealer for a price in exchange for my Z06, but then I thought about it...
It is using the LS3 (?) engine, so this could be the demise of the 427, plus if I needed the extra power, I could put in a compressor. So although I like winding up dealers, I think I would pass on this one!
I will ask him though just for fun and let you know.
Anyone know what has changed apart from the engine tune to account for the price hike?
