1.You're in the other vehicles section of this forum.
2.The ZL1 is TRACK PROVEN and broke some pretty good track records during testing before it's release. Do your research.

Anyway...

Congratulations on your new ride bro

I was almost beginning to lose faith in humanity. Thank you sir for restoring some of my faith!

It may blow by with less power but, that power is aided by an advanced AWD system and a $35,000 dual clutch transmission. The $44,000 premium for a GTR ALLOWS for this technology.
If the GTR was a manual and RWD, there would be no advantage.. in other words there's a reason for the premium. It's a bias statement based on the fact these cars are not price or technologically competitive.
The GTR is an Amazing machine, but the camaro is built on a totally different driving philosophy. Tech as opposed to muscle.

Congrats on the new ride, it looks awesome.

I'm sure it pulls like crazy. I sold my 370Z and bought a new C7.

I just came from a Camaro. It was a little hard to give up considering it was in the gorgeous aqua metallic blue color they only made a little over 1,000 of. Super heavy, thing was a tank, 4 years old (2010). I was his only owner with 50k miles and I had to take it to get the dealership to get the timing chain replaced but kind of expected to have those first model flaws. All in all it was a good car but being a small 5 foot nothing woman, I looked like a little girl driving my daddies car. Congrats on your purchase!
