I'd say it's a Super-Duper car.

It has beat plenty of "super cars" on the track.

Just because it costs a fraction of what most "super cars" cost and it's a "muscle car", doesn't automatically disqualify it from that distinction.

Just because someone can spend $100K+ on a "super car" just to say his d**k is bigger, doesn't mean a thing when we can spend a fraction of that and beat them.

Who's smarter? The rich guy dumping $100K+ or the working man who spends under $60K for a car that can do just as much or more than the rich guy's car?

Not to say I don't like the ZL1, it's a cool car, but I wouldn't put it in the same category as Ferraris and the like. Hell, if someone offered to trade you a 458 for your ZL1, would you turn him down? O would you say, nah they're equal?
I dont own a zl1, but i can say with absolute certainty that if i did, and someone wanted to trade for anything else, i would say no. Cuz im a camaro guy. Ferraris and others like it arent necessarily better/faster than the zl1, theyre just a different kind of car. And in my opinion, the zl1 is better. But thats just me.

In response to the actual question, i would say its more of a supercar than like 95% of the cars on the road. And thats good enough for me!

My average is 17 believe it or not. My SS made 730 rwhp with a Magnuson Supercharger & it averaged around 12. Turbos get much better mpg than superchargers. I drive it around with a measly 850 rwhp on 91 octane, 91 is premium in California. My car also can run on E85 but I haven't checked the mileage with it. If I'm driving on my E85 or C16 (race gas) tunes the car is set at 1100 rwhp.

when I hear "supercar" the first thing that comes to mind is Italia 458 & Aventador. not Camaro or zl1! sorry. its hard for me to even consider a corvette of any kind in that category.

Took mine out, been about three weeks, but the weather was nice, sunny and mid 40s, so I let her rip. After she was good and warmed up I went thru the gears using the No-Lift-Shifting method. I swear it seems I pissed away a quarter tank. I couldn't of been averaging more than 3 or 4 mpg's. Of course that was at Wide Open Throttle!!!

PTM 3 so the nannies did kick in a couple times between gears, regular shifting, so she did wiggle her ass a bit! Of what Fun it is to Drive!
