I thought the 300ZX got discountinued in 96/97, and the turbo model was out since 89?
no mention of the Supra
I swear automotive journalists are idiots.
When Chevy was developing the C5, there was the Mazda RX-7 and Nissan ZX Turbo to worry about, the Acura NSX to wonder about, the Porsche Boxster chasing.

They said developing, so yes what they said was right. They've been developing this Corvette for years, so they were probably doing the C5 as early as about 94-95. It is strange the Supra wasn't mentioned however, because the Supra beat the hell outta the C4 in every test I read. Plus, the MKIV Supra and NSX are the same age correct?

1. 1990-1995 ZR1
2. 1996 LT-4 6-speed Coupes.
Those were very quick!
My 95 auto coupe took down a few tt Supras as well. LT-1's were very potent. With 2.59 gears, a hypertech power programmer, and a K&N filter, it pulled a 13.37@105 in the quarter on Eagle GS-C's (315/35/17 on GS wheels).
...I'm quite happy with my C5, however. I'll pass on the C6.
