Exotic car level performance, but its definitely not an exotic.

I have at least 3 magazines with supercar challenges all of them have the zo6 corvette representing america against what we consider exotic cars, some costing over a million dollars and the least expensive costing 180thousand.

Callaway TT = more exotic
ZR1 = slighty exotic
Z06 = not exotic

Saying a car is or is not exotic has NO bearing performance. The Ferraris of the early 80s are exotic and can't get out of their own way.

I consider those cars rare not exotic. Exotic by definition is something from another part of the world or the looks of something from another part of the world. So it depends on where you live in the world and where the specific item in question is from. In a book of the worlds exotic cars , You might see a zo6 representing america.

I would not consider any of these cars to be exotic.

Exotic no, Supercars yes (more so for the ZR-1).

Now by today's standards the ZR-1 is not a supercar, but back in 1990 it sure was.

There were only 2090 FRC's produced in 2000. I have one of the few. BUT I WISH I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN A Z06.

ZR-1 yes, Z06 no.
No corvette has or ever will be exotic. Too high of production, and this is not GM's intent.
