How about that new Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X, huh? A sub-two-second 0-60 mph takeoff, a hybrid turbo V8 powertrain cranking out 1,250 combined horsepower, and a quarter-mile time estimated at under nine seconds, clearing the finish at a speed of more than 150 mph. This thing has more in common with a spaceship than it does with a typical sports car. The only problem? That price tag. The base cost should be around $183,300, and there’s no other way to say it: that’s a lot of money.
