0–150–0: Corvette ZR1X Takes the Crown!

How do you separate today’s fastest cars when ordinary 0–60 times have become almost routine? Car and Driver brought back one of its wildest tests: accelerate from a dead stop to 150 mph, then brake all the way back to zero.

Thirteen performance machines took on the challenge, including the McLaren 750S, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Lucid Air Sapphire, Porsche Taycan Turbo GT, and Chevrolet’s new 1,250-horsepower Corvette ZR1X.

The result? Corvette came out on top.

The ZR1X completed the entire 0–150–0 run in an astonishing 14.0 seconds, covering just 1,729 feet from launch to complete stop. Interestingly, it wasn’t the quickest car to 150—that honor went to the Lucid—and it tied the McLaren for the quickest braking. But its incredible combination of acceleration and stopping power gave the Corvette the quickest overall time.

With a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 and front electric motor producing a combined 1,250 horsepower, the ZR1X is taking Corvette performance into territory that would have seemed impossible not long ago.

As Car and Driver’s test proved, getting to 150 mph is only half the fun. Stopping might be just as impressive.

12k-Mile 2015 Ferrari California T Convertible

Who’s Taking This Ferrari Home?

Looking for a Ferrari you can actually drive and enjoy every day? Our beautiful 2015 Ferrari California T is now live on Bring a Trailer!

Finished in elegant Nero over a Tan and Black leather interior, this California T has traveled just 12,000 miles. Under the hood is Ferrari’s twin-turbocharged 3.9-liter V8 producing 552 horsepower and 557 lb-ft of torque, paired with a lightning-fast 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

It’s also very well equipped, with Daytona-style heated power seats, carbon-fiber interior trim, carbon-ceramic brakes with yellow calipers, Scuderia Ferrari shields, 20-inch wheels, and, of course, the power-retractable hardtop that transforms it from a sleek coupe to an open-air Ferrari in seconds.

With low mileage, a clean Carfax report, and a terrific combination of performance, luxury, and everyday usability, the California T represents a lot of Ferrari for the money.

The auction ends Friday, August 28 at 11:10 AM Pacific. Don’t wait until the last minute, this could be your chance to put a twin-turbo Ferrari in the garage!

Some Random Thoughts

 

The fastest way to find something you lost is to buy a replacement.

Why does “doing nothing” go by so much faster than “doing something”?
