Although the ZL1 will be a limited production car it will not be anything spectacular like a Veyron. So these cars will be driven jsut as the ZR1 are... in fact more so. No matter how long you hang onto that car it will not appreciate in value such as the Ford GT has. And dont take this as a shot... but after all it will be a Camaro. You can take an SS and apply a few mods to get the same performance... well really better. It will be a great car no doubt but it will not be a garage queen because unless you own the first one off the line it will not appreciate in value.
I completely agree. And don't forget that for all the ZL1's power, the 2011 ZL580 and the 2010 ZL575 are effectively the same car powerplant wise....A 6.2L V8 with a TVS2300 blower. The big improvement in the ZL1 is the suspension, which while it will make an improvement on the handling of the car, doesn't make it "super-car" per se.

Still great to see these cars putting down well into the 7 minute range on the ring though. That's an accomplishment for sure.
