Isn't that the same car?

It pains me to see an awesome car like the zr 1 with a shitty interior. You'd think they would at least upgrade it to match other super cars. =/

Enjoy them, hell how can you enjoy muscle cars of today. Only a small percentage of the ameriacan population can afford such muscle cars today like the Z-06, Z-R1, Viper, GT-R. Hell Even more affordable cars like the new Challenger, Charger SRT-8, Camaro the average american can no longer afford.

Muscle Cars of the mid 50's, 60's, and 70,s were affordable in their day. Now even owning a base corvette sets you back 40-50 grand.

thats was an incredible video. Makes me realize how realistic Forza Mortorsports 2 reallly is cause that sounded and looked exactly like the game. Not the inside of the car obviously but everything else.

I could hear a few times where he went over a rise and the engine speed rose sharply.

faster doesn't mean crap.
if ferrari or zonda wants i'm 100% sure that they can make a faster street car than anything GM or nissan could put out.
fast, faster, fastest isn't everything.

let GM or nissan build a car that's 100% quality from top to bottom with craftmanship like no other and make it go fast, last, escalate in value etc etc and then compare to the likes of ferrari, zonda and the other elites.

speed alone can't be the deciding factor.
on the street where most of them will be driven, there won't be any difference in speed between the gt-r, zrq, zo6, ferrari, etc etc. we all have to stop at the same stop signs.
