Interesting.
The Corvette C6 Z06 has 505hp.
The Corvette C6 ZR1 had 638hp.

The Corvette C7 Z06 has 625hp.

The rumour is that the C7 ZR1 would crack 700hp if the Z06 variant cracked 600.

Bring on the ZR1!!!!

Will it be on your shipping list? C7 ZR1?

I drove a C6 ZR1, supercharged, think it was an LS3, was disappointed with the power, it may have been de-tuned for the driving day. Foot to the floor at 3000rpm, was expecting to be pushed back in the seat, but nothing really happened. for a 105k euro car, there must have been something wrong. That was rated at just under 700hp, and with it being supercharged it cant have been far off the peak torgue, although its probably 4500rpm ish. I still recon it was de-tuned for the day.

probably detuned - from what I have seen they almost push you through the seat!

and its not an LS3. the ZR1 is the LS9.

At, that was it LS9, knew it was an odd number.
