I agree, 400 hp and around 200 pounds lighter than a C5 Z06 is pretty darn fast any way you cut it. Even with 400 hp and around 3000 pounds it's about equal power to weight of the C5 Z06.

The scary thing is that the Nissan 370Z (350Z replacement) is rumored to be around 340 hp and right at 3000 pounds (big weight trim from 350Z) for around 30 grand. That's power to weight better than the E46 M3.
