    Kinda looks like he had to back off in the Vette a couple times so he wouldn't smack the Lambo up the ass. Had the road have been wider (As per American specs) he just might have been able to pass the Lambo.......Oh the horror!!

    Which car I would take? Obviously the Lambo. Then I would sell it and buy two corvette ZR1 one red and one black, 5 sport bikes, a $500k house with a huge ass garage, a snowmobile, a four wheeler, a side by side, a $5000 barbecue, a 2000hp diesel tractor and a 500hp v8 lawnmower. I would probably still have lots of money left after all this. Chevy did an awesome job with the corvette. A fraction of the price but yet its still faster than the Lambo. Of course the lambo is more composed, its built better and a lot more fancy, but its also got 15x the price tag. But both awesome cars! Fan of both!

    oi
    for this video let me sum it up for the ones that cant handle to see a $500.000 losing to a $80.000 car
    lamo $350.0000 ZR1 $110.000
    lambo V12 670HP ZR1 V8 6 speed SC 640HP
    lambo 4x4 ZR1 2 rear wheel drive
    so the lambo was in front with only 30 more hp and costed 4 times as much and still couldnt get away
    so the ZR1 would of been up front it would of gotten away like that
    the lambo with the cost and only 30hp more and 4x4 should way out running the ZR1but it can only take off in a stright line then the ZR1 is right behind it
    so this all it means is you can spend the 350000 on the lambo and go so fast and get looks on the parkways
    but the ZR1 will come by you can people will say... WTF was that.. because the ZR1 would be gone hahaha
    no time to stair at the ZR1 or see what it was only the chevy and circle lights hahaha
    so spend the 350000 and get a look for 2 seconds but it only last that much and the ZR1 can be doing this all the times hahaha every time now and 10 years from now
    and it will always have a thing
    the lambo they have to change how it looks to just to make the ZR1 look somewhat bad but in always makes the Zr1 look to good

      IAMDAVEAMI Hey Leonhard Euler. i am curious to find out what those numbers mean because i got confused when you said 500k car losing to a 80k car and on your very next line you state that the lambo is a 350k car and the zr1 is now a 110k car. Can you see why i would want you to clarify this claim? Let's move on to something else because i want to tell you something and i want you to think about it with that point of view. You mention the cost difference and how the lambo has only 30hp more and a price tag that's 4x more than the zr1 and how the zr1 is gonna pass the lambo and get away as people say hahaha, Well in all honesty i think your still young and you just don't get it yet but maybe when you get much older then you will understand it, For example there are 2 different watches and they both tell time, how come 2 similar items that accomplish the same goal at the end of the day and both look nice then why does one of the watches cost $20 and the other one $200.000.1 watch is the same price as a shirt and the other watch cost the same as a house, they are not the same after all, yes they both do the same thing, the watch tells time and the car is your transportation, so when 1 watch starts falling apart after a little while or doesn't always work and you have to change battery or whatever the other watch will tell stories about it's time on earth and the things it has seen and the places it has been and you would never have to do anything to it because there is no way no how that 200k watch will ever have a problem, 20 bucks u throw away after a while but the 200k watch will increase in value the more time passes, it's the artistry of the lambo, the way it was put together the passion behind the car the idea that every kid from childhood on till forever is always gonna have this dream of one day owning or just driving a Ferrari or a Lamborghini for one day. Anyone that dives a Lambo is not gonna let a Corvette worry him because the corvette driver 9 x out of 10 is gonna wanna race the lambo but no matter what the outcome the lambo driver wont have time to dwell on if he got beat by a vette or he just smoked one himself.you don't need to go fast for people to hahahaha the slower car, all the camera's will be taking pics of the lambo and maybe out of pitty the driver of the vette will start taking selfie's. Moral of my story is dont be a dick,
      dick!

      bro you can't be this closed minded, the lambo is there for the people who can afford to buy them and they do, tell me this what brand shoes do you wear? what the least expensive $10 dollar brand or do you wear Nike, Reebok, Adidas or another more famous and pricier brand????? just cuz the car is much more expensive you can't talk shit about it, i can tell you have never been near a Lambo, Ferrari or any other really pricey car because if you did and you have seen and felt what it feels like to ride in one or just to even sit in one then you wouldn't be bashing on them so much, look dude i want you to not get all defensive about this because that's you being jealous and ignorant about it, instead of talking all that shit that you are try to make it a life's goal to achieve greatness and success in your future so you too can but one and enjoy the success that you achieve. Being closed minded and negative about things that exist in this world will ONLY get you to become a failure in life. Be open to everything and try to learn from good people around you and above all have a goal and a dream to achieve and go for it 100% full blast and don't let anything get in your way until you reach your goal and dream, without it you will only be an empty hollow person that wasn't able to accept failure to reach victory. Trust me when it comes to supercars their owners don't think about cheaper cars. It's evolution of life, i drove Honda's & Toyota's until i had saved enough money to buy my favorite car, it was used but it was my favorite car but the point is that used favorite car of mine was used for 2 years and i gave that car to my cousin for 5 bucks even thou it was worth 13,000 in the condition it was in and i moved on and bought that same car except i went to the dealer and walked out with it's newest and top of the line model and not for one second did i think if i should buy a Corvette or any other car just because they might be faster, no way bro who cares if their faster, it's not about how fast you can go it's about what the car makes you feel like whenever you drive it or think about it. again evolution is the word, you move up the ladder not go down the ladder. let me know if you understand what im saying'

For some reason in the usa you guys decided to say it differently. Us english can quite happily say zee but why would we say that when the letter z was intended to be said like 'zed' .

    This is so biased, of course the vette could keep up with the lambo because the lambo was in front. The lambo driver had to judge turns and corners and he really couldnt push it to the limit. All the vette driver had to do was follow the lambo and keep similar speed. If the tables were turned im sure the lambo would keep up with the vette. Also the vette has horrible traction so im pretty sure with the lambos 4wd it would be able to puul turns faster.

    "The ZR1 is better behaved and handling is miles better than the Z06." Uhhhh... not according to every other automotive journalist I've ever seen, read or heard of. My cousin became QC Director at the Corvette plant in 2004 and we've been a "Corvette family" for many years before and since. I've owned both the C6 Z06 and ZR1 platforms (2007 Z06, 2013 ZR1 and recently bought a low-mileage 2010 Z06) and the Z06 is lighter and much more forgiving. Having substantially less power, it's also easier to put that power down. That's why both cars have very similar times on strips and tracks. The braking definitely goes to the ZR1 unless you have the Z07 package on your Z06. The ZR1 is a great car but the Z06 is a far superior platform to work with. There's a reason it's the preferred model for race teams (including the factory Corvette Racing team). Just my opinion. Cheers.

    Great demo of how competent the C6 (possibly C5) and beyond corvettes are . Growing up I didn't care for Vettes as I found them too brutal in their power delivery, with little regard for suspension and driveability. But they've gotten to be extremely good cars. Keep in mind in this video, the Vette is still at a disadvantage being front engine. You can tell in the video a few times the Vette gets a little loose in the back and can't take corners with quite the finesse as the Lamb. That said, the new mid-engine C8 ZR1 is a supercar that can easily run up with the best of Europeans.

  • @scarface115

    I'd have to say, I'd take the vette in this pairing, when it breaks as all cars do, I could actually afford to fix it, I was watching a deal in which they replaced a clutch in a lambo, the part itself was 2k, had to gut the thing to get the engine out, looked like they had to disassemble half the car.... so a clutch would run you around 5k in parts and labor, the vette, you could change in your driveway... in an afternoon and get one at the local auto parts place... actually if I truly had my choice.. I'd have a 69 charger black and chrome tinted.... done the way I like... hotchkins suspension, modern hemi from the hellcat and matching transmission.. then that'd be a car... not saying it would outrun anything, just be a joy to have and to drive...

      Tim Vincent just throwing this out there but changing the clutch in a C5-C7 is not an afternoon job at all, nor would I want to do it in my driveway. Entire differential and trans at the rear have to come down along with the torque tube that runs to the front. At a shop it's at least a 2k job altogether.

    To pick up someone to go get a coffee in the city on a warm summer day, I'd probably take the Lambo. On any other day and for any other occasion I could think of in 5 minutes, I'd take the ZR-1.
    Getting bread rolls on a sunday morning: ZR-1.
    Driving grandma to her dentist appointment: ZR-1.
    Driving to grandma's funeral, after she died from a heart attack caused by a full throttle 2nd and 2rd gear pull: ZR-1.
    Driving to the Chevy dealer to pick up a second ZR-1 in a different color, that I bought with my inheritance from grandma: ZR-1.
    Being driven to my court appointment after getting my license revoked for driving 189 mph in a 50 zone: ZR-1.
    Well, maybe the Lambos AWD would come in handy for a ski trip in the Alps, but if the roads are more or less clear; ZR-1 it is again.

    Why so much vette haters? I was once blind to until my father bought him self a 2015 Corvette Stingray, just the stingray not the Z06(clear that up). Let me say this, I am still not a hugr vette fan but for a 90 000$ dollar jusr above base model Corvette it is a beautiful piece of engineering to drive, even if its not the 650 hp beast. Now what im getting at here is the fact of all you keyboard warriors talking shit about something you know nothing about. Who cares if that out of date ZR1 is a bit tail happy, or has a giant 6.2L v8 or doesnt have 4 wheel drive or god for bid only does 205 MPH, do yo own one? probably not, so your just spoutting off what you think you know with out experience. Im sure any of you woukd gladly take a ZR1 if it was given to you or if you even knew what it was like to drive one. Heres another thing. have you ever seen a good ol C2 Stingray 427? probably not. if you ever have the honor of seeing one it will be a pivitol moment in your life youll never forget. when you see it for the first time its like seeing your first shaved pussy, you never forget it.It is an absolute beauty of american engineering at the time and is still one of the sexiest cars(IMO) to grace the roads still. Now keep on smashing the buttons on your keyboards and driving your moms minivans or your shitty honda civics and have a nice day.

    Funny how he states that Lambo at 1,500kg. I looked everywhere online (including a lambo forum) and the weight on a 2009 LP670-4 SV is between 1,840 and 1,860kg. That's a huge difference. So many of these online reviews are FULL of incorrect information. I watched one a few weeks back from a very reputable Japanese car magazine. They reviewed the 2018 Corvette Z06 and claimed (among other things) that it was all-wheel drive, a supercharged V6, made in Detroit and cost over $150K in America! This was a well-respected car reviewer that's been in the business since the '70s. Time to let real fans review these things and fire the wannabe weekend warriors!

    Lambos are actually quite expensive to keep up. Constant maintence and tune ups. They are still great cars though. I really doubt your story. A new car is under factory warranty so it wouldn't have cost him anything. Also if it really was 50,000 in repairs is would qualify as a lemon and GM would have bought it back. Also I can't think of anything that would come to 50,000 worth of repairs in under 2 years. I say you are lair liar, or at least bending the truth.

    "Affordable" to who?
    In the rest of the developed world gas prices are often twice, sometimes three times as high as they are in the States. That means nobody in their right mind would consider an American car "affordable". As for reliable. They don't top any customer satisfaction surveys. Without their huge domestic market they'd go out of business long ago. As it is GM and Chrysler were still bailed out or they'd be bankrupt.
    On the world market things look different. Learn that.

  • @Dgannt
    @Dgannt 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    That's fine, but than you limit your customer base severely. Most people that want a crude fast car don't spend 50-100 grand on it but put in a turbo and better wheels for 5 grand. But customers that spend serious money don't care in the first place if it goes so and so fast 0-60 miles, but how refined the car is, both inside and outside. That is why they rather buy for example a base Porsche for twice the price but half the performance, hence Porsche popularity all around the world.
