What do you guys think of comparing muscle cars to the corvette?
@cschultz17115 жыл бұрын
IMO it's pretty fair.. the Camaro ZL1 is more $ than a base model Vette and out drives it on a road course, in fact a ZL1 is almost on par with a Z06 around the ring, so comparing a high trim Mustang to a Corvette is pretty fair, especially considering their price ranges.
@ShogunsDojo5 жыл бұрын
Re-review Smurrf! But to answer your question the corvettes just sit above more affordable muscle cars, just out of reach kinda like what the 911 is to the corvette.
@TheDutchTexan5 жыл бұрын
Not even in the same league. Muscle cars are raw power, straight line performance with a low cost of entry (not true anymore, but I digress). The vette has always been a more premium car. The car you get when you "graduate" from a muscle car.
@Bost23015 жыл бұрын
I'm crying... in Germany the Stingray starts at (with tax) about 91000€ (~103000$) that's about double the base price of Camaros and Mustangs. (We don't get ZL1 or Shelbys from dealers, so they would be in the same ballpark after import etc.) :-( I want one...
@cschultz17115 жыл бұрын
@@TheDutchTexan ZL1 Camaro did the Burg in 7:16.. C7 Z06 in 7:13. It's not all about going fast in a straight line anymore. And a optioned out ZL1 costs 75k+ while a C7 Z06 is 80-100k. They are a lot closer than they used to be.

As a former Mustang owner of a 2015 5.0 with the performance package, I have to say the Corvette is the superior car. Not to say the Mustang is slow or not good, but the engineering that goes in to the Corvette speaks for itself. Better handling, lower to the ground, more low end trq, aluminum frame vs steel, more functional aero. use of carbon fiber for various parts, two standard 8 inch displays, targa top. Now I do not have the Z51 package, but I can tell you one thing the 5.0 was better at, that was braking. 6 piston calipers do make a big difference. 6 piston calipers are reserved for the Grand Sport version and up. Will I stay a Corvette guy forever who knows but I go where my money does the most for me.

The Corvette only has 2 true American competitors, the Viper and the Ford GT. Prices may differ(GT) but the specs are similar and they're in a way "American exotics", cars built in America to compete against Eurpoean sports cars. The Mustang/Camaro/Challenger/ Charger are all GREAT cars, but they're not built to compete against the European market and primarily compete amongst themselves one way or another. Big differences between sports/super cars and pony/muscle cars.

Made 552 wheel all motor and that was fast and fun for a while. Now I’m spraying anywhere from 250-450 shot, and holy shit it’s too fast for the street. Only put it on the dyno with a 200 shot and made 789whp. Ran 10.4s all motor and have ran 8.2 on a 400 shot. Everyone thinks you need 1000+hp now a days. Not true if you have suspension dialed and good drivetrain you don’t need that much. I’ve beat 1200+hp cars all day in my fbody and they don’t like it😂
