Probably 10 or more times the cost of a new ZL1.

If people have money to burn and are impatient, but want a fully factory warranty, wouldn't they just but a cts v coupe?

true. other components have to be beefed up or you do run the risk of failure.

then your down right f***** lol ... this is the reason I am not putting a blower + suspension upgrades among others on my car and waiting for ZL-1... that warranty is everything and piece of mind... not to mention the prestige of the ZL-1 badging
