It's a great comparison by Edmunds. The fact that one beat the other by a small margin is irrelevant; they're both great cars.

Great machines but on different classes. The ZR1 is something too scary for a regular GTR to deal with.

If it's 3 months old, it's probably been posted once or twice. Good comparison nonetheless.

505 at the wheels for the ZR-1 is not that impressive for the cost....uncork it and I'm sure it can get close to 600

still, ZR-1 > GT-R

i still wouldnt be able to see myself in a corvette, i would much rather have the GTR id take the performance hit, basically unless your tracking the car, the use of all of that power would be useless correct?
and the GTR is bound to have a better interior.
some might say why not just get a lexus or something with a fantastic interior then, its the fact that you know you are driving something exotic and capable of haveing a lot of fun in.

but i might just be biased, since ive never found myself attracted to a corvette, ever.
i wish i did tho (i missed so many amazing offers)

I love vettes and am glad to see it win, but the gtr was simply outgunned by a more expensive machine. Would be nice to see how it stacks up against a z06 as well to kinda get an idea.
