Can this automatic C7 Corvette take out this beastly BMW?
Despite its size and cushiness, BMW’s M6 is a rocket from the factory: with 560 horsepower from a twin-turbo V8, it’s already triumphing over the Corvette before a light even flashes. The C7 Corvette has 100 less horsepower from its LT1, but it also weighs less.
Both cars are rocking automatic transmissions, and this must have been an early base Corvette, because it’s got six speeds instead of the 8-speed autos that C7s now have.
But, go ahead and throw your preconceived notions out the window. What happens in this video will genuinely surprise you.
Because it has nothing to do with the spec sheet. The Corvette—which costs half the price of the BMW—goes on to not only hold its own, but it’ll do better than that. Don’t believe us? Watch and see for yourself.
