The author does not seem to "get it". Just because something is "faster" does not mean it's "better". While the ZR1 is seriously fast, nobody will mistake driving it for even a regular Ferrari 458 or 488. People say that buying a Ferrari is basically buying the engine and the car just comes with it. The sensation of driving a mid engine car with a flat crank V8 can never be replicated even in the fastest Corvette with a push rod V8.
I hope GM will take into account the driving feel and pleasure of the mid engine and not just outright speed. Something telling me they'll get it wrong.

This is like when they said that you’d never get better driving dynamics than a bmw, and then US makers beat them at their own game with stuff like the ATS and CTS V, etc. There is no magic, competent engineers can make good cars and occasionally a turd (F30) comes along...
