2015 ZL1 Car and Driver Review
Good article, interesting how the braking numbers compare to the Z/28 and the Dodge R/T.

Very favorable review - the real upside is that more power can easily be tapped for a relatively low cost. This is somewhat true for other cars as well but the number of tuners and shops with LS expertise seems quite large. I don't see anywhere near this level of aftermarket support for the two domestic competitors nor the imports in this area of the country.

Well i think the superior stopping power of a basic Charger R/T is a bit sad.
Even the Z28 was worse than the Dodge. I mean, it's only a R/T and the Challenger is no lightweight either.

The Z/28 has carbon ceramic rotors, that surprised me!

Right now I'm very happy with 580hp it seems insanely fast to me. However I'm never against more power lol. My dad's ordered a hellcat but sadly they cancelled all 2015 orders and gave everyone a voucher for 2016. Once he gets his hellcat I'm sure I'll need to get to 650hp to beat him.
