You won’t be able to buy any groceries with that car’s monthly payments.

top speed of over 200 mph

Seems nice, but I'm not sure who really needs a production race car with speed limits generally at 65mph. Not to mention the potholes from government diverting highway funds to welfare initiatives I'd rather have a truck or jeep so I'm not wrecking my car.

2025 Corvette ZR-1 checks in at 1,064 Horse Power..

Just for comparison, a standard Toyota Camry or Honda Accord have about 185-190 HP

I think it’s ugly with that giant spoiler on the rear.

The roads around here would destroy the vehicle in no time at all.

Looks like they threw everything including the kitchen on it. It is downright ugly.

The supercar market is clouded by the falling value of fiat currencies.

While projections for sales climb through 2034, it's not clear if that sales number is based on an increased number of vehicles projected to sell or a higher cost per vehicle due to inflation.

Nobody needs a car with a 1000 hp engine and can go 200 mph. That is an assault car and can kill hundreds of people. We need to ban these things. If we can save just one life, it is worth it.

The cost is not bad for what you are getting either: $115,000–$133,000 estimated

If the estimate holds.

But then Bugatti takes it to the next level but the price is ten fold higher too

But it wouldn't surprise me if the Corvette could easily overtake the Bugatti Veyron, which has 16 cylinders & 4 turbo chargers, at a cost of 2.3 million dollars

It’s a great car, especially for the price. My only issue is styling....and I don’t mean the spoiler on the back, many high-performance cars have them and there’s not much that can be done, you need the downforce - they’re just ugly.

Rear mounted, twin turbo V8 :)
