2010 Corvette

Are you looking for a 2010 Corvette?

Q: What is better 2010 corvette Z06 or ZR1 durability wise?
I was just wondering what is better durability wise (I know the zr1 is faster) but who is more durable Z06 or ZR1?

A: well they aint been out long enough to know if they are very durable, expecially the zr1, i would get the z06 as long as you are not planning on putting a supercharger on it, and if you do just dont run high psi, motor trend said chevy thought about putting a supercharged ls7 in the zr1, but backed out cause cylinder walls were to thin

Q: Whats different in the 2010 corvette zr1 and the 2009 zr1?
any help with this question would be nice of you.

A: They changed a few of the options for exterior color, if that really matters.
It’s .3 inches shorter, probably thanks to the 9 lb increase.
And a few other unnoticeable changes.

Nothing drastic

Q: How much is a turbo charger for a corvette convertible 2010?
Hey guys im turning 18 and am curious how much would it cost to put a turbo charger on my corvette to add about 400 hp-600hp and a body kit. Thanks in advance
Thanks guys btw my dad isnt getting me this car its all me. Im gonna get a job that pays over 100k in computers so please dont say im leaching off my parents.

A: You would be better off super charging a Corvette vs turbo charging.

You can put a Procharger on for about $7,000 installed. Go to West Coast Corvettes and check out the options. Magnusson’s are a little more expensive, and will require an after market hood as well. This may not be an issue if you are going with a body kit.

Check out East Coast Superchargers – they do great work. However, unless you don’t care about the warranty on the car, supercharging or turbocharging WILL void the warranty.

You may also want to consider upgrading the brake system to the ZO6 brakes (or comparable aftermarket). That much more horsepower will require better stopping power.

All this being said, I would not do any of the above. Go with a cold air induction unit, long tube headers, hi flow cats and a good exhaust system (recommend Corsa). Better than that, just buy a ZO6 or a ZR1.

Something to consider…A stock C6 Corvette with 436hp will smoke 95% of the cars on the road. The car only weighs 3100lbs. Doing the above will give you about 35-40 more hp which will take care of another 2-3%.

Q: Is GM going to continue to make the ZR1 Corvette for the 2010 model year?
I have heard GM is going to discontinue production of the ZR1 Corvette, is this true?

A: Honestly i havent heard either way…

But as far as business terms go i dont see the benefit of keeping it around since the company is having such money problems…

As far as the money into designing it that isnt much at all to them…you’re probably only talking about ten million or so invested in it..(in big business, thats nothing). When the fact remains that their just isnt a big demand for the vehicle to actually run full production of it.

Right now 90% of consumers are shopping for price and economy… Not high horsepower and high price tags…

Just the way it is… So i’d be surprised if they did anything.. Right now i’m just curious if they will even be around as a company in 2010.

Q: what’s the cost of a 2010 corvette?
I was wondering how much a fully decked out 2010 corvette cost?

A: Coupe-49,000
Convertible-54,000
Coupe Grand Sport-55,000
Grand Sport Convertible-59,000
Z06-75,000
ZR1-107,000
These are all of the models from most inexpensive to expensive. The more expensive you go the more power and extra features!

Q: Should I get the 2010 Camaro OR the 2010 or c6 Corvette?
Well also, if possible, I would like some details about the car like what the power is like, how fast, pricing, and general stuff. What do you prefer and which one do you think is best for a flashy car. Personally I like the Camaro but I still want to get all the info from other people as well before making my decision. Thanks guys!

A: imo, you should buy one of each. try them each out for six months and then sell the one you like least.

Q: I have a 1996 impala ss, and was wandering will a set of OEM C6 (2005-2010) corvette wheels rims fit on it?
I dont have a clue?

A: It should, I dont see why not unless you got some really big rims, like 22”. Those might not fit. I would recommend you go and measure the diameter space you have so you get a good idea of how big you can go.

Q: 2010 Camaro SS vs 2010 Corvette?
Ok I want to get a 2010 Camaro SS but I think that the 2010 Corvette is awesome and I really like it to which one is better and why and which one should I get.

A: Just did the comparison myself…

Corvette Z06 is the winner hands down!

Q: What are the monthly payments like on a new 2010 Corvette Stingray?
I heard a friend talking about a new 2010 Corvette, so I looked up 2010 Corvette on Google images and saw a picture of the Corvette Stingray. As soon as I saw the car, I fell in love. When I checked the price it said it costs anywhere from $48k to about $52k. So I was wondering what the monthly payments, including insurance, would cost. :)
I’m only 17, so I know I wouldn’t be able to get the car for many years. But I was just curious about the price.

A: Too many variables to give an accurate answer.

Depends on the down payment or trade in. Your credit score may effect your interest rate. How long you get the loan for. Etc.

Open your favorite Internet search page and search for “Loan Calculator”, without the quotes.

Fill in the blanks. Don’t forget to add about 5% to 6% to the MSRP for sales tax. You may also want to add another $500 to $1000 for dealer prep, title transfer, registration, etc as these will also need to be paid at the time of purchase.

So lets start with an even $50,000 to make things simple.

Add 5.5% sales tax and you get $2,750 which equals $52,750. Add $500 for title transfer, dealer prep, and all the other miscellaneous additional fees tacked on at the time of sale which comes up to $53,250. You put 10% ($5,325) down for your down payment. You will be getting a loan for $47,925.

Let’s say your interest rate is 6.23% (the average amount)and you get the loan for 5 years (60 payments).

$931.66 is pretty close.

Don’t forget the required full coverage insurance because there will be a lien on the title and the lender will require this. Maybe an extra $200 per month for this.

Q: Can i put a corvette engine in a 2010 camero?
how much would it cost?

A: you can do anything you want, but if you have to ask that question, you cannot afford it,

Q: what kind of tires does the 2010 corvette zr1 has?

A: Two choices are available from the factory for the 2010 ZR1 and Z06
Standard
RPO XFA Tires, front P275/35ZR18 Eagle F1 Supercar, extended mobility
RPO YFJ Tires, rear P325/30ZR19 Eagle F1 Supercar, extended mobility
Optional
RPO XFG Tires, front P285/30ZR19 Michelin PS2, extended mobility
RPO YPS Tires, rear P335/25ZR20 Michelin PS2, extended mobility

What the boy tony loves to do is give half a answer to a question or a poor one.Only giving the optional tire shows he is to lazy to give a good answer.

Q: how much does it cost to get a 2010 zr1 corvette engine and put it on a 2010 camaro?

A: I would say that even the $25,000.00 including install is a low estimate.
Not sure what the engine from a ZR1 would cost but I know that a LS7 which is going to be much cheaper will cost you $15,000.00 just for the engine not to mention all the other parts you will need to make it work. You would most likely hit the $25,000.00 mark just for the engine and parts for the engine.

So lets just say that you spend 25,000.00 on the 2001 Camaro and another $25,000.00 for the engine and parts do the install your self. You then have a $50,000.00 car why not just buy a ZO6 brand new they are $75,000.00. If you go with a 08 or 09 you could get it for around $50,000.00 The top speed of a ZR1 is not that much better than the Z06.

I would have to say that yes having a 2010 Camaro would be extremely cool it would still be better to have a Z06 Corvette. The Z06 will handle better they look awesome and will get more attention than a 2010 Camaro.

Q: should i get a 2010 Viper or a 2010 corvette zr1?

A: I am guessing you are just saying this, hypothetically, since the chances of you actually being able to afford this car are slim to none.

Personally, I would pick the ZR-1. And I would buy a slightly used one that has been babied and save thousands of dollars.

Q: Should I get a 2005 Corvette or 2010 Camaro? Help!?
I’m getting a new car soon and I was just wondering which car over here would you rather have and WHY? A Basic 2005 C6 Corvette or an 2010 LT1 Camaro? I really can’t decide and really need someone else’s opinion. Which one do the ladies prefer? And please dont give me answers saying that american cars suck. Thanks in advance

A: I understand where your coming from. I really think both of them the ladies will like all around. Just get a mean sounding exhaust that can draw their attention when you rev it. Works everytime in my 2002 Trans Am. =]

Honestly, I’d get the Camaro. It’s be under warranty and the overall look interior and exterior is exceptional. I love Corvettes too, but the cost of insurance and replacement parts down the road might cost you a lot.
