The sales manager at my dealership said they never order a Corvette with the Mag ride option unless a customer wants it. He said it was around $2800, and nobody really wants to pay for it. He did say they order all Corvettes with the electrically activated exhaust. I wish the ZL1 didn't have the Mag ride and was priced accordingly less. I'd be satisfied with an upgraded SS suspension. Can't imagine how much a set of those shocks cost.
I don't think that you could build a car to the level of the ZL1 for less money and still maintain a warranty. It performs great in all areas. I could see someone beating its performance in a straight line, or in the curves, but it covers all of these areas in a single package. Modding is expensive, risky, and usually has some trade-offs.
