Same delima here. I actually traded my SS for the ZL1 to avoid spending 10k on an SC but a month later I'm spending 10k to mod the ZL1. lol F*ck!!!!

stock was underwhelming for sure...do a minimal upgrade kit to find out how GM should have had it from the factory

For being 580hp, I tend to agree. Weight is really a big factor

You guys are killing me lol

I'm trading in my 2012 ss so I don't have to spend 15k on supercharger and suspension just to loose my warranty. Should get delivery this weekend but I know from this site that I'll be doing at CAI and Exhaust and leaving stock tune alone.

I agree 100%. The car handles and brakes exceptionally well; but the stock hp is too low for a car of this girth.

Ya I've been drooling over the Hennessy web site. I'll give chev city a ring. What about warranty ? I assume they'll back what they sell.

Nice. Ya weight is always a killer. Might have to strip it down for the drag strip a bit.
