You started stirring the pot, so I'll help it along... I owned a ZL1 and can definitely say the Z/28 is better in every way (for me), except power (but Z/28 is no slouch). I've also driven a Charger Hellcat. Tons of power, but no way I would've traded my ZL1 for it. The 662 HP GT500 is a beast. Having never driven one, I can't give an informed opinion so I'll give an opinion based on deductive reasoning..when I owned a Boss 302 there were a lot opinions floating around that it was the more fun car to drive and the Boss is no match for a Z/28.

In my opinion, without the ZL1 there would be no Z28. If a $55,000 Camaro would have failed to sell well, do you think Chevrolet would have built a $75,000 one? Understand that I would love to have a Z28, but the ZL1 is important in its own right.

Stopped watching "expert" Chis Harris before the 2 minute mark right after he tells his viewers that the ZL1 engine is a de-tuned ZR1 engine from the Corvette.

Which one made him giddy? A guy who KNOWS cars, drives pretty damn well while reviewing and comes up with his own opinion. I don't give a damn what the expert say, I know what I like from 30 years of driving fun cars. It makes me giddy, the ZL1 did not. Sorry.
Right - and I agree, we all should all judge our cars ourselves and not just rely on what is published. I think the Z28 is great if a track car is what you are looking for. For me, I wanted power for my daily driver and have no intentions of tracking the car.

Chevy did a great job of putting out two excellent choices in performance cars and I don't understand the need that some fellow members feel they have to put down one to tout the attributes of the other.

Enjoy your Z28, I'll enjoy my ZL1.
