MR config, dual clutch tranny, 490 base HP, under $60k msrp?
And it looks like this? Damn.
It does look a bit cramped, and that storage compartment you'll end up resting your right elbow on is rather weird.
Edit: Well, EviLore's video below shows that that storage compartment lid is in front of where your elbow will be. So it'll always be in your peripheral vision, which seems a bit odd to me, from an esthetic point of view.

I'm shocked how theyre affording this.It does look a bit cramped, and that storage compartment you'll end up resting your right elbow on is rather weird.

Once you go SUV you never go back.
There are very few sports cars I fit in. I went around trying a bunch once. I noticed a pattern. Any sports car intended for the track fits me. That's because they are made for people to wear helmets and maybe install a roll cage later on. Any sports car intended just for the street... nope.
Large frame 6'4". Depends on the car really. I have a 2003 Nissan Frontier that fits me just fine but the newer model I bump my head on the damn b pillar every time we go off road. The Nissan Z, my knees are pushed against the dash and my head is touching the roof with the seat all the way back.
Corvettes are 100% designed for the track. Far more than an FRs/BRZ. Just pull the seat and get a real track seat with set low profile mount if you're too tall. You can also get custom stuff done. I know taller people than you that own corvettes. The Z specifically is a more serious track car than even a GTR.
The Corvette is designed for old men to drive to the golf course or take a road trip. The FRS was specifally designed for the track. The rear seat is just to get cheaper insurance. The rear folding design was made especially for four tires to fit in so you could drive to the track and swap to track tires. Oh and the Z is a toy compared to the GTR.
Lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo

LOL ok big shot. Have it your way... I'm just a fanboy with no experience at all. Edit: Time is gravity pass it along!Lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo
That is the most absurd thing I've ever heard in my life. You have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. The c5z is purposely sought out as a track tool for novices and enthusiasts alike. While your GTR is throwing codes and burning up from heatsoak the c6z burns off laps after laps and with better lap times as well.
Oh and the c7z handily beats the NISMO GTR
Nissan GT-R Nismo vs Chevrolet Corvette Z06 - FastestLaps.com
Compare performance of Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C7) and Nissan GT-R Nismo (R35). Updated October 2024.
I'm sure you're just a fanboy that loves imports based on your ridiculous assertion that a BRZ is some kind of good track tool and that back seat line is just bullshit car salesman say. The same nonsense was said to me by the Lexus salesman when I got my LC500. Seriously it's complete nonsense.
Considering I just completely proved you're full of shit I'd say so. I can post pics of me at COTA and dragging knee at several Texas tracks as well as all the imports and domestics ive owned. I've driven and owned these cars and others. I also know what breaks and what doesn't at tracks. You know what I don't see at tracks? BRZs lol. I do see a few GTRs and they are great cars but the Z is faster and more focused, that's just a fact. It's also more reliable and cheaper to maintain. These are facts.
You are taking this entirely too personally. You can make anything into anything. I used to take pleasure in being the underdog and making something out of nothing. Doesn't mean those were ever intended to be track cars. The Corvette is just a blank piece of paper. You choose to draw a race car that is your business. More power to you.
