    "Here's the thing. The ZR1 is one hell of a car. No question. It matches or beats all of its rivals in virtually every performance test. And it's comfortable. But it's also a very, very expensive car."
    InsideLine: 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Full Test

    "The new ZR1 is truly a daily driver supercar, at least for most days. Even with proper snow tires, it would be extremely unwise to attempt driving a ZR1 in the winter. The ride is comfortable enough, however, that even driving it in Michigan is tolerable, while the grip is sufficient to drive through corners at speeds that would easily get you thrown behind bars."
    AutoBlog: 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Review

    "The Corvette is fast fun. These are reasonably practical sports cars that cost thousands less than rivals with similar performance, making them easy Best Buys. That also goes for the Z06 and ZR1 versions, which are among the fastest cars in the world. The ZR1's price premium over the Z06 seems quite stiff on its face. That's tempered by the fact that ZR1 offers performance on the level of other premium and exotic sports that cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars more."
