Can the ZR1 & ACR run with the Enzo

This not a versus thread, just curious if the 2 can not just stick it to the enzo but leave it in the dust

I believe neither the ZR1 or ACR can leave an Enzo "in the dust".

Reading various articles on each of them, I believe the differences in 0-60, 1/4 mi., etc., is minimal.

Fair fight across the boards. Each one is faster in some aspect but in terms of one being better than the other two, It's pretty much a draw.

I'm not even gonna comment on which one i would take if i had the money. You guys should be able to figure that out

Ok. so after 6 1/2 minutes of driving as fast as you can, you'd take a car because it was 2 seconds faster?


id take a 2 seconds slower Ferrari.

You shouldn't be so obviously upset at a simple fact. What I stated never implied I need a car to get ass.

What it means, is a Ferrari will always turn more heads and get more attention then a Chevy. Simple. Even if the Chevy kicks the Ferarris ass, people just know it as a "Supercar".

Nice try though.

guys lets rember the enzo hasnt been updated since like 2004. the zr1 is a 2009 car. thats 5years difference between the cars. sure the zr1 is faster, more comfortable and up-to date, driveable on the streets, but its still a chevy. the name ferrari itself is worth its weight in gold. again not turning this into a vs thread, but u gotta understand the difference and crowd each car is aiming for.

plus the ferrari makes the most beautiful noise in the world. nothing can come close to the sound of a italian v12. belive me if u hear one in person if will completly change ur life

They're pretty similar.

Personally, I'd take an Enzo, sell it, and build my own ZL1
