GTR smoked a newish Viper around a track on a show I was watching. The GTR is a crazy fast car with a skilled driver behind the wheel.

GTR's are performance cool, but I prefer the ZL1. I don't like the look of the GTR. It kinda reminds me of a guido car like a Viper. Just my opinion, not hating.

yep. Ugly. but that is once again my personal opinion. Everyone has different taste in automotive styling.

it went from the zl1 vs gtr racing, to how ugly the gtr is. I think thats everybodys default comeback when there is a car faster then the camaro. for example the gt500 its faster then the zl1 but its "ugly" a zl1 isnt touching a gtr stock for stock it wasnt built to take it on

like i said i owned one they are not ugly in my eyes
but i had other issues like the run flats uncomfortable seats noisy transmission /expensive oil changes but GTR's are fast and in my mind are track stars not for the street. |

Both of your reason for selling the GTR would also apply to the ZL1, esp if you have any back problems

Well I think the GTR is sharp as hell, but a little more costly than I'm willin to pay. I really didn't like payin 61 + for the ZL1 but it's my affordable sports car And I really don't give a shitt who or what is faster, it satisfies me in its capabilities. But I have to disagree with you on the comment that the GT 500 Is faster, theirs no proof to your claim, on thr other hand I believe GM when they say it isn't and Al O. Himself saying that he believes it will compete if not beat the 13 GT 500 when it shows it's ugly face...just sayin... |

Zl1 has run flats. Pretty smooth in touring mode.

Yeah overall the ride is phenomenal, like I said my issue with being comfortable is with the seats themselves. They're wayyyyy too stiff in the lumbar area.
