Any thoughts, comments, rumors or guesses?
I remember the comments you mention and I also remember comments from another vendor with a video where they actually show strut tower movement while driving. While I don't know, necessarily that the STB is required, being it looks aluminum, it's not a lot of weight, and given the extra weight and mass of ZL1, not to mention it's higher stock capabilities, I'm certainly in favor of the STB. I'm glad it polished; if it stays into production, I think it's eye candy, just like that LSA
