The Corvette may be America's sports car, but the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is designed to take on the world.

Chevy claims a 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds, top speed 205 MPH, quarter mile in 11.3 seconds at 131 MPH -- enough to out-gun most European supercars. But what's the ZR1 really like to drive? Read on. $105,000 base (incl. gas guzzler tax), $115,000 as tested, EPA fuel economy estimates 14 MPG city, 20 MPG highway.
