Hard pass.

I recently got to drive a ZLE, and while the ride was a little rough, it wasn't bad. But that car was a hoot and i think a big part of it for me was that it was still a manual.

How long do rotors last?

Id love to DD a Z/28 but the brake costs have scared me away a little.

$1500 brake jobs is not something I want in a daily driver.
$400 for pads isn't bad at all

100lbs = .1
