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 lived in Germany for four years & yes the autobahn is fun. The 'ring would be incredible. I didn't have a worthy car at the time, just a truck & a fourth-hand Mercedes. I will warn you, those Italian drivers are COMPLETELY(stark-raving)-Bazinga-Brazil-Nuts ! They will take a four lane road and turn it into a seven lane, and the odd lane belongs to whomever is doing the most stupid Uhmm Stuff. Seriously I'm aggressive enough to play with 'em, but only when I'm driving something that I don't mind using to bluff my way into a lane or even possibly swapping paint. Then the curvy secondary roads that have no guard rail, are one lane wide with occasional turnouts, and have hairpin turns with 300 ft cliffs beside them. When I got down out of the Dolomite mountains, (yes it was snowing too) I had to pull over and thank God for half an hour before my stomach un-knotted. Found a cool ski resort though.

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

That's kind of like saying the big improvement in, say, Calvin Johnson over Usain Bolt is Johnson's ability to catch a football... like just any fast guy can learn to catch a football if they wanted to. |

SLP ZL-cars are great, but I'm not sure comparing one to ZL1 is apples-to-apples.
