Gotcha, well then I guess good for him. But I look at it like this. I've wanted a ZL1 since they were announced, I can afford it, so I'm getting one. I don't care what the cost is, sure there are cars faster for less money and sure the ZL1 is alot faster than cars that cost twice as much as it too. But I'm getting it to impress myself, not others. I've always had great luck with Chevy sports cars, I personally just don't like the looks of the GT500 compared to the ZL1. But I have much for the GT500 and I enjoy talking to folks about their rides no matter what brand they are.

WELL I AM! Cancel my order right now!

Oh wait, I already bought my car.....

Well then! I have a 2012 ZL1 in my garage with only 132 miles on it. Now for sale because of this new information.

Even though I will never see a drag strip... this is important stuff!

I mean come on... I read it on the internet. It has to be true.... right?

The ZL1 is a great car guys but IMHO it should have been released back in 2010 as the SS and we should be getting a Shelby killer known as the "Z28" right now

What more proof do you need bro? The current GT500 will NOT beat a ZL1 nor will the 13'... im sorry but when Chevy called them out when they annouced their new GT500 then to back out? shows signs of inferior bro... point proven man... oh and im still waiten on the numbers at Nurburgring for the 13' GT500... yea they wont release those "High" numbers LOL
