Odd that, like Matra pointed out, GM again makes a big deal of pointing out the fact that this engine is just north of 100HP/L.
I thought the idea of specific output was something that didn't matter
Anyways GM should be thrilled. They raised the bar and created a new level of Halo car while still maintaining a great bang-for-buck value.
Think about it, you can get it fully kitted for an est. 110,000USD and you get 638HP for that (alittle over 172 bucks per HP) and more importantly some of the biggest most hardcore brakes.
I can finally say that I would be proud to have a ride in or drive a ZR1.
BTW: I know that technically the Z06 is even better bang-for-your-buck value but it has some other issues that I think the ZR1 handles. IMO the ZR1 is deserving of the Supercar moniker aswell as being drive-everyday friendly.
Power, whether measured as HP, PS, or KW is what accelerates cars and gets it up to top speed. Power also determines how far you take a wall when you hit it
Engine torque is an illusion.
