.

OUTSTANDING experience, Dragoneye, and

you did a great job of conveying it as well.

I can barely wait for my own chance to slide behind the wheel of my very own ZL1.

The day is coming and the faithful will be rewarded.

That was a great writeup Joe! The entire media event was an awesome experience to be a part of. I can't wait to receive my car even more than before!

It was great to meet and hang out with you on the trip. We most definitely have to do it again!

Thank you so much for the write up, all the details, and the great pictures. It is nice to learn details such as these about this car before taking delivery. How the car drives, little features not commonly known, experiences that we can learn from before we get behind the wheel. These comments solidify everything I’ve thought for some time about how the ZL1 is a totally engineered package, and really just reinforce all of the reasons I want one in my garage.
