The last sixth generation, which is current today, Z06 is presented in 2005. ZR1 is the most powerful serial modification offered by Chevrolet. Corvette engine mounted in a muscle car is a 6162 cc and have a stunning power of 638 hp, and add it to this amazing maximum torque of 819 Nm, ZR1 is a true classic muscle car from the future. Problems of American sports car has always been the behavior
of cars in turn, this modification of the Corvette is not a great exception, but this time from GM have tried a lot and need to noted. In the test model the braking system works great and managed to stop the car from 60mph to 0 below 110 ft..
The price of the car is quite acceptable for such a good sports car, but still is about $ 20,000 more than its Japanese competitor. Nissan GT-R is a successor of legendary in Japan, and UK Nissan Skyline GT-R, which was found very difficult in the USA.
The first Skyline was introduced in 1969 and was produced to 1974, when it is discontinued. After redesign produced again started from 1989 to 2002. The latest version of GT-R is released in Japan on December 6, 2007, the United States on July 4, 2008, and the rest of the world in March 2009. This model of Nissan is one of the fastest Japanese ca
rs ever build. V6 engine with twin turbo system produces 485 horsepower at 6400 rpm, maximum torque is 588 NM in the range from 3200 to 5200 rpm. Despite its small capacity and much higher weight, acceleration of GTR similar good as the Corvette ZR1, the difference from 0-125 mph / (0-200 km / h) is less than 1 second. The maximum speed of both vehicles is over 190 miles.
Our advice: Winner on points is Corvette ZR1, however, we prefer Nissan GT-R because of its low prize, four-wheel drive system, low fuel consumption and better handling on the road.
