Well, I really don't know what I would change about a 2013 ZL1 when my 2012 isn't even in existence yet. It amazes me how people these days are never happy. It's good for the manufacturers I guess.

For them to change the interior after one year would be insane, that plus they probably won't. If the ZL1 needs anything to compete with the GT500 it will be stronger engine internals, they are only going to be able to do so much with the stock ones that are currently in the LSA, with the arrival of the 2014 Corvette maybe there will be a horsepower boost though. The ZL1 weighs so much though it would need a ton of horsepower to "blow the doors off" of a 2013 GT500, should the rumours about it's traction be true. Beat a GT500 not so much but "blow the doors off" it's gonna need some serious power.

I'm not wishing for any changes because I've yet to figure out what to do with what it has! I think it's fantastic as is. My thoughts are there is a lot of premature opining going on and think the horse needs a break. Something tells me they might as well be ONE 18 month year and work out some kinks.

Speaking of "KINKS"--This is what I think of the ZL1 "it's Really Got Me"



That would make an excellent ZL1 commercial.... Group of people Oooogling over a Gt500 at traffic light, then the ZL1 pulls up next to it...song kicks in and everyone focuses on ZL1 .GT500 driver hides his face! lolz

It's been the same interior for the Camaro for 3 years though other than very slight revisions - it needs refreshing and bringing upto par with other models

A nice 7 or 8" display with Garmin Nav imbedded. I have a Kenwood Head unit in my truck that has the NAV, Bluetooth and Ipod control that is awesome. I am sure that I will have to put one in my car at some point. Would nice to have that option. I would pay an extra $1000 for it.

If you mean a complete revamp yea I agree, they need to bring the interior up to par with the Mustang, no more hard plastic EVERYWHERE and some decent interior amenities.
