Yeah it does...I couldn't see myself spending twice as much money for a car that goes just as good but can you really compare the GT40 to the ZR1 for the price...some GT40's sold for over $200,000...hell the first one was auctioned off for over $550,000 back in what 2003? I bet inflation would probably make that about $600K now if not more...and the performance marks are pretty much identical...And even with dealer mark ups I think the most expensive ZR1 in the US sold for a little over $130,000 fully loaded...

Ford GT:

HP: 550
TQ: 500
Weight: 3,400lbs.
0–60 mph: 3.7
0–100 mph: 7.4
1/4 mile: 11.2@131.2 mph
Top speed: 205 mph limited

Corvette ZR1:

HP: 638
TQ: 604
Weight: 3,300lbs.
0-60 mph: 3.3
0-100: 7.0
1/4 Mile: 11.10@132mph
Top Speed: 205 mph

So...I'd like to spend that other $100 grand on a house or something and still go faster...and maybe even get a few Hennessey Performance parts for the ZR1 and run 10's
