E One thing i will say. If the RS is still selling at near $180,000 and assuming you can get the GT2 for $190,000 why would anyone buy the RS? I'd buy the RS, I don't like turbo's. Whether the GT2 does it faster than the CGT or not, I'm sure most can agree driving the CGT would prove to be the more thrilling.

Ultimately I think the CGT and GT2 performance will be quite close, just like the Scud and Enzo. Remember, the GT2 has all the suspension development from the 997 GT3, which totally transformed the handling through a revised suspension geometry and wider overall track. Combined with its launch control and VTG turbo technology it's not hard to see why the car performs so damn well.

If the ZR1 really ran a sub 7:30 I would think Chevy would have been announcing all around the world right now. But we shall see...
