The STR8 is a fine car but its more a competitor of the SS ...both in price and performance. Apples and oranges IMO.

The ZL1 is in its in its forth and final year with a new platform coming. 580 HP was shocking when introduced in 2011 but meh now. The Hellcat is new with 707 HP tapping pent up demand in the Mopar camp. No one is surprised

Agree and I wish they would have upped the power too but clearly Chevy moved on to the Z/28, Stingray, Z06, etc.
