I personally wouldn't turn my SS into a ZL1 because of costs but would do many other things if I could to compete against one...suspension, twin turbo or s/c, drive train etc.

Asking why mod a car into a faster one when there is another car in the same line up for more that is faster is almost...idk car guy soul less. Not intended to offend. As long as cars exist there will be enthusiasts to mod them and spend money to make them faster. Heck, how many ZL1 driver have dumped enough money into their Camaro that could've bought a GTR or used Gallardo or new Z06?....the list goes on
Don't even get me started on thr GTR...about the only Nissan I drool over! You make great points though!
