I'd be happy with either one.

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
^ They are more affordable?
It is interesting that the corvette was faster on the track and the porsche was faster at the strip. I thought it would be the other way around.

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
Why did the Porsche win? The ZR1 is cheaper, faster on the track and stops way better.

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
Evo comment was a joke. Porsche had better interior I guess, and bad track conditions. So I guess the awd on the Porsche helped a bit.

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
At the end of that issue, there is a 2008 EVO long-term test, it didn't rate well. Mostly the $40k price tag and the Kia-level interior.
I also agree, the ZR1 spanked the 911 in a lot of the tests, but it does lack a certain amount of quality for $120k. Kinda like the 1990 ZR1 was a real piece of crap for $60k when it came out, the engine was pretty sweet though.

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
Haha yea the evo comment was a joke.
I did read the evo 40k test in the end of the issue too, it was interesting.
Driver enjoyment and feel won in the 911, so did the interior, quality, and all around testing. The ZR1 did win around the lap, but they both ran the same 1/4 mile and trapped the same speed, which I found really interesting. Probably lack of driver skill though.
Id take the 911, im a bit biased towards Porsche though. :P

That's called RWD vs AWD. |

Re: 2010 ZR1 VS 911 Turbo :)
RWD vs AWD will trap the same? I can understand AWD will run a quicker time, but trap speed should be higher in a car with more than 150hp over the other... Unless he was a really shitty driver and spun them through most gears.
Heres the EVO X MR article: http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...term_road_test |
