Background- I currently own a 94 z8, with the lt1. It's my daily driver. While I love the car, its going need to be replaced soon. When i do complain about it, its usually about comfort and practicality, not performance. I am trying to decide between a 1ss and a 2lt rs. The initial numbers we have for the v6 model looks like it will accelerate about as well as my 94 z28. However, it also looks like the ss will be a far more daily driver freindly than my z28. I am leaning towards the 2lt rs based on number3's statements.
question- I have a few concerns about the v6. Specifically, the one piston breaks and the lack of an lsd on the automatic version. I was wondering if anyone who has driven the v6 could compare its performance to a 4th gen z28. It looks like it will accelerate about as well as a lt1, while having much better mpg and a much more comfortable ride. I really want to know how its performance handling and braking compare. I find the braking on my 94 to be inadequate and definatly want something better.
Thanks to anyone who can answer.

Well If one piston breaks on either a V8 Or V6 You are going to need a new Engine....
Now if you are talking about One Piston Brakes that is another matter.. But from what I have read the brakes on the LS and LT models are more than adaquate.. But if you need all that stopping power go with the SS...
