Right now I am just crossing my fingers that the ZL1 M6 will not have the gas guzzler penalty.
That EPS may be the saving grace from the gas guzzler. I'm not saying I'd necessarily be disappointed in the big "technology" push from GM if ZL1 doesn't manage to eek by the GG tax, like the Shelby does, but that wouldn't look too good, IMO. However, it takes gas to make power, and it ZL1 delievers the power and performance, I won't think twice.
