yellow or red ..auto or manual
Hi guys.
I am purchasing a used Zl1 by the end of the month. Need recommendation ..is yellow is a good color for zL1 ? Also.. Would you recommend auto or manual ? I have no expirence with manual so I am not sure how easy is to learn on Zl1.. Also I will be driving in canyons and weekends in LA traffic. Last question ..if the car has corsa cat-back exhaust ..is that a good exhaust? Better than stock? Thanks |

Yellow all the way! It looks awesome on ZL1. I would recommend auto if you are in traffic a lot.

The color is up to you.
A yellow ZL1 is a rare bird so I'd say go for it. The manual is easy enough to drive. Not sure I would want to do LA traffic with a manual though....it's your call. Corsa is good but I like to stock NPP dual mode exhaust.

No experience with a manual and you want to drive a 580 horsepower car. Really? Stick with what you know.

Corsa is one the highest quality exhausts available. Can't speak to better/worse on a ZL1 - super nice on a vette.
Have you EVER driven a manual? I'm super biased as I wouldn't own anything else, but like prior poster said - if you've never driven, 580hp car probably isn't a good first time. |

Just drive it out to my place and I'll give you some practice.

Yellow is gear but will be harder for resale in my mind. Your two choices are all personal preference. Go with what you want.

The manual in traffic is no big deal if you are used to it. Now learning a manual in traffic situations is not a great idea. I have driven my car in So Cal traffic and I am way more worried about getting rear ended by texters than operating the transmission.
