See, what most don't get is when someone says they can build a better performing car they don't mean they are trying to build a ZL1 clone. Just a car that will perform better.

If you want a car that performs on the strip, track, and street you can’t beat ZL1’s value IMO - even if it ends up being $60k. .

Drag Racer: Modify the SS.
Road Racer: ZL1. Even if you can bolt on parts for less, you can’t match the engineering and tuning GM has put into the ZL1. Consider the ZL1s Downforce, MR Dampers, Steering, Brakes, etc....
Strip / Street / Track: ZL1. No contest. The ZL1 can literally transform from a cruiser to a race car with its 5 performance modes controlling steering, suspension, and traction control.

P.S. I'm a car guy and I'm not going to do anything to my ZL1.
This is true for stock cars and even tuner built cars, but I'm talking about personal built cars.

Some people don't care about warranty.
