This makes me chuckle, because half of you will go on to say later that your car has never seen rain or snow, but we all know they sit outside at the dealer after being built and they see all varieties of weather.
Who cares what the 1/4 mile of the GT350 is? The car wasn't designed to be a drag racer. Just buy it, drive the snot out of and measure the success of the car by the size of the grin on your face.
There's a leak I saw that the next iteration of likely the ZL1 or possibly even the Z/28 will have the LT4 from the Z06.... I wouldn't be surprised if it's slated for the ZL1. If so, that's a sure 11 sec car even if detuned to 630-640hp & tq.
While I respect your opinion it is not shared by many. I for one could care less about the numbers and usually would test drive a car before buying but this one is different. I look at it at least 100 times a day, talk about it constantly, and call my dealer every week for updates. If it has had this effect on me then it is the right car. :cheers:
I don't care about 1/4 mile performance either, but I don't think he is in the "profound minorty". No need to make childish snide comments just because his tastes differ from yours, end of the day it doesnt take a rocket scientist to look at the power and weight of the car and make a good educated guess how well it will do in terms of raw acceleration. Im not so sure why some folks are so set on seeing it on paper.
Maybe you should perform an actual scientific poll amongst potential GT350 buyers instead of using anecdotal evidence from your no-doubt extensive forum experience.
