Is it still V12 bi-turbo?

It's still going to be a pig on the track, over 4000lbs even with all that carbon fiber, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't kill for one.

Compete with the ZR1? You can probably buy 2 1/2 ZR1s for what that will cost.

you cut me deep.

I respect it because its powerful but I can't say that I like the styling. The front end is okay but I really dislike the rear. I haven't seen a profile picture of it but it doesn't look to have anything particularly special going on as far as its silhouette (sp*) goes. Maybe I'm just a picky, grumpy bastard though.
