I figured they would have to bring one back, since their last one's in the early 90's.

That thing looks sick!

Its an amazing machine... The hood is awesome too... That car has made amazing progress over the years. Sadly it still proly gets better gas mileage than a stock fox.

No crap. I bet it will still be under $100k too, and rivaling million dollar super cars. I'd like to drive one.

I know this is a Ford site (I dont pick sides, I just enjoy proven cars), but what GM engineers have done with the C5 and C6 Vettes is just damned impressive.

This ZR1 is just ridiculous. 620 HP with a curb weight I dont even want to think about, thats gonna be one scary ride. Once im done with school I want to get a C5 FRC or Z06.

Anyone else notice the little side vent (brake cooling) on the quarter panel.... looks a little like a certain Ford product many of us like.
