Dude we get it. You think that C7 Z06 = C6 ZR1 and therefore that the C7 Z06's base price will be equal to or slightly higher than the C6 ZR1's. We're all just disagreeing with you, and saying the same thing over and over again won't change it. I already explained why I think it's possible that a next-gen Z06 can both outperform and be cheaper than the ZR1 based on how the C7 Stingray stacks up against the C6 Z06. In fact Porsche did that with the 991S, which is apparently faster around the Ring than the 997.2 Turbo and doesn't cost anywhere near what the Turbo did.
The C7 Z06 isn't the "same car" as the C6 ZR1 anyway. Just because it will have a supercharger and similar power output doesn't AT ALL mean it's the same. There are still tons of other elements of the car that we don't know about, many of which would have a huge impact on cost, e.g. whether carbon ceramics brake will be standard and how much carbon fiber will be used.
It's also not reasonable to now claim that you're talking about the "car you would actually buy" price, not the base price. The "car you would buy" price is going to be hugely different for different people, especially on a Z06 where a higher percentage of buyers are more likely to want a stripped-down track monster. We've all been talking about base price and that's been clear for a while.
