TTAC Moves Fast On A 0% ZR1
We don’t know for sure, but Dr. Sanjay Mehta (TTAC commentator doctorv8, awesome brother) did the deal on a 2010 Corvette ZR1 for 0% while the autoblogosphere still had it in editing. Not that the Internet is slow, he’s just that damn fast.The dude’s been keeping tabs on the inventory nightmare, calling out for GMAC’s corrective action on the Corvette Forum…almost a month ago. It’s so nice to see the two brothers speak The Truth About Cars, via different media.
Granted, the addition of Sanjay’s ZR1 to the Mehta fleet means one must go: the Z06 that I literally cut my teeth on my second TTAC review is headed for a new owner. While I never loved the styling and interior bits, it brought a smile to my face in 50+ autocross laps, countless blasts on curvy roads and a coupla corners taken at opposite lock with terrified passengers. I will truly miss that Z06, it might be the pinnacle of GM’s engineering prowess. So now we find out if the ZR1 is a worthy successor to the throne: more on that when the break-in miles are over.

- Carson D It will work out exactly the way it did the last time that the UAW organized VW's US manufacturing operations.
- Carson D A friend of mine bought a Cayenne GTS last week. I was amazed how small the back seat is. Did I expect it to offer limousine comfort like a Honda CR-V? I guess not. That it is far more confining and uncomfortable than any 4-door Civic made in the past 18 years was surprising. It reminded me of another friend's Mercedes-Benz CLS550 from a dozen years ago. It seems like a big car, but really it was a 2+2 with the utilitarian appearance of a 4-door sedan. The Cayenne is just an even more utilitarian looking 2+2. I suppose the back seat is bigger than the one in the Porsche my mother drove 30 years ago. The Cayenne's luggage bay is huge, but Porsche's GTs rarely had problems there either.
- Stanley Steamer Oh well, I liked the Legacy. It didn't help that they ruined it's unique style after 2020. It was a classy looking sedan up to that point.

- Lou_BC Summit Racing was wise to pull the parts. It damages their reputation. I've used Summit Racing for Jeep parts that I could not find elsewhere.
