Thanks for your input! Looks like ZL1 will indeed be more rare in future, though none looks collectible to me.

Btw, paragraph is your friend :-)

I sold my 2010 Grand Sport Corvette Coupe with an Auto Trans a few months ago. I prefer my 13 ZL1 over the GS. The C6 is soon to be a dinosaur with the C7 arriving soon. The seats are better in the ZL1 and the Mylink is better than the C6 electronics. The ZL1 also has a back seat. The ZL1 because of its size is also a safer vehicle than the GS. My Z gets way more attention then the GS does.

While its obviously all a matter of personal taste, i agree with you. The C6 looks dated and in another year or so will only look more so. Personally, I never felt passion for the overall design of the C6. The ZL1 just needs to be well broken in with a few mods added to realize more of the LSA's potential. But if the potential of the ZL1 doesn't excite you, move on. The excitement factor is a big part of the equation imo...

Twas an easy choice for me - altitude means anything N/A is hobbled, so the GS was not very fast, especially in the mountains. :|

So I ordered the ZL1.

[adamgl]

Or find one of these for the same cost as a ZL1, lol. ( And hope the motor last ) But I would take a low mileage Z06 over a new GS every day. You can get em for around 45K. Price might swing either way depending on what the C7 looks like. Haven't been a fan of the renderings I've seen so far.

thats a carravagio interior......they do beautiful work. those seats are 5K each!!!

[01pewterz28]

YES I have never been a fan of the Corvette. Sure is a great car but just never liked them

[caramaro1969]

my camaro is much more uncomfortable and slower than my z06. the zl1 was what i was going to get but GM kept pushing back the release date...so i got the pace car, i kind of regret it now but i never drive it, i drive my z06... looks better, drives better, 33 mpg, more comfortable,just save it for your solo drives and do your running in the wifes car...better yet have her trade her car in for a zl1, keep your GS PROBLEM SOLVED

Actually most of it is Apsis. Apsis SuperDeluxe Seats, they're amazing seats. Hold you great in a corner and still comfortable after a 500 mile trip.

Way off topic now, do you have any performance mods on your Z06?
