Corvette Redline HTR-GS640/SC asks, why pay more for a ZR1?

In the world of ultra high performance cars, typically the old adage "you get what you pay for" is an applicable term. People who get into this sort of car, like the Corvette ZR1 or a number of other exotics, expect to pay big money for their big performance. But every now and then, a good value pops up.

In this case, that value is the Redline HTR-GS640/SC (try saying that ten times fast). The car has been dreamed up and built by Howard Tanner of Redline Motorsports and Dan Carlton of DeNooyer Performance, and is based on a base Corvette Grand Sport. Howard and Dan add an Edelbrock E-Force supercharger, a bigger cam, and tougher valve springs and push rods.

The end result is an $82,000 that is fully capable of embarrassing the more expensive ZR1 in a race. You can even get a warranty for three years or 36,000 miles, trade in another car, or get financing. Check out their website for all the details.
