ZR1 teaser

Friend with a Z06- that can actually drive on a race track- says it is scary on normal roads and traffic and is too fast for a daily. The ZR1 will be like a hypercar- good for GM. Never owned a GM

It's a car and an experience, not an identity.

Currently the E-Ray fills that role as the middle child in price and performance but I wouldn't write it off permanently. .
