CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Will the new Z06 fit the criteria for supercar?

I'm a no. A supercar isn't just about stats. It's about a certain amount of exclusivity too, and regardless of which version it is, it is still a Corvette.

McLaren 12C, Ferrari 458 & F12, Lamborghini Gallardo & Murcielago, and a few others. Even the 911 Turbo or GT2/3 variants aren't supercars in my book (maybe because I work in Manhattan and see 911s lining the streets).

McLaren P1, Porsche 918, La Ferrari ... hyper-cars.

That said .. if I had $300K to spend on a new vehicle right now, C7 Z06 and a Z/28 would be a great combo (Z/28 would allow me to take both my sons for a blast instead of 1 at a time). Although I personally believe the Z06 isn't a supercar, it it were my money, I wouldn't care one iota.
