The exhaust sound Kind of reminds me of a 33 foot 1993 chris craft crowne I used to have. It was a great boat.

That's why I pulled the Corsa off my Z-06; didn't like the boat/tractor idle sound. They sound terrific under load or WOT, tho.

Racer, that airbox is fantastic. Did you add that or did that come already on the car?

Curious what would be involved to put one of those in.

Love the cyber grey - best color IMO for the ZR.

Sorry waaaaay too loud for me.

Sound great for about 2-3 minutes but on the 4th minute I'd be looking for an Advil...

Keep in mind it's JMHO and you know what they say about those...enjoy your car!!!...

The only thing is, you take your ears with you inside the drivers cockpit when you drive, it isn't that loud inside the car.

John (Caravaggio) did it, ask him he will give you the low down.

I have a few awesome videos here (amazing scenery combined with an amazing car), and they show what the car sounds like when I don't have the microphone shoved up the exhausts ***!!!

When you were walking around the car the DBs didn't seem to subside.

Maybe with the windows up...

I don't care what it sounds like It's a freaking 750 horsepower ZR1 . That's enough for me ... I'm already impressed ! ( and just a little bit jealous ) .

well, maybe you can complete the package and get one of those trailer hitch covers that are boat propellers and put it on the back.

that's one reason why i passed on the Corsa and went with the Akrapovic TI EVO, Corsa sounds too much like a Boat....not like a ZR1...i feel they don't compliment the ZR1.....
