Including how it does against the Z51 which would still be 10Gs less. If it were comparable to Z51 performance wise and was within 5Gs or so then yes, I'd pay that premium for the rear seat. But not circa 20Gs. For that I can get a nice tow vehicle for a 2 seater track car.
Good analysis, I agree. If the C7 Z51 beats the Z/28 on the track and I think it will, it would be hard to justify even a $65K price. Ok, I'm revising my max price I would pay to $60K, LOL.
