Sure it's "track ready" but couldn't you just shed weight, etc from a ZL1? I mean not having an AC, HID's, trunk carpet, less speakers, that should drop the price not increase it. I don't know every part on this car so don't attack me Lol
Carbon brakes standard, not an option on ZL1
Recaro seats standard, optional on ZL1
Unique forged wheels and tires
High performance DSSV dampers, not an option on ZL1

I think those alone would cover the cost difference between the Z/28 and the ZL1.



Some of these posts crack me up. People saying they wouldn't pay this much for a Camaro probably couldn't afford a car this expensive anyways. I can't afford it and think $75,000 is a reasonable price for the car but then again, when I think of performance cars, 24 way adjustable seats that heat and massage my ass don't even cross my mind. Car performance is what matters most to me.
