sorry but the zr1 is better too look at

The C6 ZR1 is a much better can than the Audi..obviously much better looking, styling but the engine is bulletproof, repairs, servicing is ridiculous for the Audi, not the Corvette. The price alone with the extras for the Audi is overpriced. The C6 won so many championships in IMSA ALMS.. and yes proper drivers can take it around a track unlike clarkson. It is a track car. Over 200mph. A legend now as we see it today.

While I appreciate that he got it right about these two cars, there was a lot to be irritated by this video. A decent driver will always win a race with the Corvette. Just check out the Ring lap times. No one disputes that the C6 has a cheap interior to hit the price point. But everyone finds C6 to be dependable and well built. It lasts forever. Its dirt cheap to maintain. The C6 will outperform the R8 and most other EU supercars at a fraction the price to buy or run. It just lacks the polish that comes with the 3x price difference. If you just want to drive, the C6 is the winner.

Europeans hate that America builds Corvettes at a fraction of the price of their supercars that are slower.

Stick some track tires on the vette and stop spinning the tires and the car would gap the audi on every lap

Steven Mitchell
Call me bonkers and slap me silly. This makes me think of “ The Kingsman”
Carl Hober
well the 09 r8 looks better in 2020 then the vette 09 in 2020

Make the Corvette four wheel drive like the Audi R8, and the story would be totally different.

He said the zr1 has more power than an enzo, which it doesn't. Rarely do they miss things like that in the edit
Skaitan
Well, it wasn't fun and crazy handling that put America's flag on the moon…

That Corvette would eat that Audi alive! You're bashing it but Audi's are pure junk!
G J
LOL The Audi is a better car your ass! PURE JUNK!

F me that limey Jeremy is one annoying (and I should say, not a driver) cee you next tuesday! Even the garbled, obese caused voice is like a mouthful of marbles! What an embarrassment!

A ver el Audi R8 tiene más tema de ayudas electronicas,tracción 4 ruedas y motor trasero,el zr1 motor delantero tracción trasera y menos ayudas electronicas,un buen piloto a mi parecer puede sacarle mejor partido al zr1 con un buen control,a la vista está los tiempos de vuelta en varios circuitos y el zr1 hace mejores tiempos ke el R8,para mi el zr1 es un coche mucho más divertido y con más esencia de coche deportivo ke el R8,al fin al cabo si sabes conducir bien,no hace falta tantas ayudas electronicas y el R8 todo el rato saltando luces y cortando la verdadera experiencia de la conducción.

Americans just love a good burnouts and donuts, that’s why it handles like that
Billy Gates
Corvette please

Both cars are great but neither were made for the opposite track. Drag race the vette wins easy. On the course track the audi wins easy. What you want in your car is what matters

Why would you want a flappy paddle gearbox in that car, I would not want one for free.
This like paying more money for doing less driving.

Corvette zr1 🖤🔥

When you're loose in a turn, you don't spin the tires MORE to come out of it. Thought Jeremy could drive better than that.
Alex Chavez
Leave the Corvette for the men ill let the wife drive the audi
Alex Chavez
That Corvette beat the gtr around the track so this guy drives like a bitch
Jose Ortiz
That Audi A4 looks like all the other grandma boring cars, granted with a bigger race engine, give me the Autist Corvette ZR1 Please! At least I won't be looked at nicely, when I drive up, to drop off the rug rat at school!
