Z51 Vette coupe MSRP is $54,000, the GT500 MSRP is $68,000.. The Hennessey HPE600 upgrade is $12,500 making the Vette $1500 LESS for a car that anyone can hit 200..

Chevy wins.

Correction, that was an HPE600 Vette that went 200, still naturally aspirated.

The 600 hp he600 is supercharged. :smile30:

Well a base Corvette coupe is giving up 200hp to a GT500. Like I said, just wait till the ZR1 comes out. Factory showroom model comparison of the two.

LOVE this paragraph... haha....

"Unfortunately, the GT500 isn't about consecutive lap times either, because the extra cooling of the Track Pack option didn't prevent it from going into a reduced power mode one lap after its timed run. Parked with the hood up is not a good look."

The track time 1/4 because we are drag racers here, the Mustang got it by 3 tenths and as tested was less money! :smile30:

Base model Vette is cheaper than a GT500 and the only place the Stang wins is a couple tenths in a quarter mile. All other aspects the Vette wins by a landslide, including the most imporant stat of all... Getting pu$$y in the passengers seat.

In our town a base Corvette is $70,000 plus tax, title and license and there is a 6 month waiting list, The Shelby GT 500 is 67,000 on the sticker and the dealer wants a $10,000 more because of "availability", because the car is sitting in the showroom.  So don't believe everything you read on the internet.

I'm just going by MSRP. If dealers want to jack the price up, that's on them. MSRP on a base model Vette is cheaper than a GT500.

Sitting on a lot right now today for $67k...  http://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/ctd/4235027779.html
