Default Supercharged Corvette officially labeled ZR1

Motor Trend reports that the upcoming Corvette supercar will sport the ZR1 moniker when it's finally unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Interchangeably dubbed "Blue Devil," "SS," and "Z07" by the automotive media until now, the car will feature a supercharged version of the 6.2-liter LS3 V8 introduced in the 2008 'Vette. Look for power and pricing significantly higher than that of the current top-dog Corvette Z06. Don't worry, the Z06 won't go away. The 505-horse car will simply become Corvette's midrange offering. Man, it's gonna be a party atmosphere in Cobo when they unveil this thing...


Okay, so your telling me I can have a Z06 for still less then a Viper.....or buy a limited number ZR1 that will cost roughly the same as a Viper....

Things are really getting interesting with the Vette & Viper wars......
