I'm enjoying it very much as the DD. Traffic can be a bit of a pain with the M6, but that is expected. Car is a blast to drive though and even with the hour of traffic each way I'm averaging 17 mpg, so its not bad at all. That's with not babying it between traffic.

Cannot even tell you how much I love driving this car as a daily driver.
1. The sound is intoxicating but not too loud 2. The seats are incredibly comfortable plus the seating position makes you feel like you're really "IN' the car 3. I love the alcantara more than I ever thought I would; would not want leather in its place 4. The power is there if you need it but you can drive it moderately whenever you like 5. The gas mileage is not bad as others have said 6. The quality of the interior is far better than I would have expected 7. I feel more special in this car than the $80k M3 it replaced 8. The MRC suspension is amazing - M3 rode like crap 9. Steering is the best I've ever driven 10. The M6 and the clutch are beautifully matched 11. ...Plus, it's gorgeous |

Bring It

It's everything I could ever want in a DD.
No way I could drive something else knowing I had this just sitting at home, especially for what it costs just to collect dust.

This is an amazing daily driver.
I did a 650 mile trip in one setting. It is very comfortable. This thing will take off, but if you do not cane it, it can drive like every other car on the road. Great car to pick up the dry cleaning and the groceries. Very easy to control. It will only go ape, if you want it to. While my wife is scared of it, calls it a transformer from the future, and will not drive it, anyone could drive it, as long as they don't get too far into the gas. Still, I would not suggest loaning it out to your friends. This is not a car that you can floor it in, without paying some consequences. I don't believe the ZL1 suffers fools all that much.

I wish it were my daily driver. The power and balance is as close to perfect as I have had the pleasure of driving. I absolutely enjoy every chance I have of taking the ZL1 for ride.

It's my daily driver here in Houston and I love it. I've never been so excited to drive to work and home again. I look forward to it every day!

No complaints other than rock nics here and there but nothing that can't be fixed later on.

I found myself trying to find longer ways home after work and I already have an hour to drive. That's how much I am enjoying it, even in the rain.

I am driving mine most days so far, but if a chance of rain is in the forecast; she will sleep in the garage awaiting sunny days.
