What vehicle have you driven with more front end grip than the ZL1?

This car doesn't understeer at all. So neutral and confidence inspiring. This car is a winner. Car wants to go faster in the turns and feels so neutral.

Best front end grip car ive ever owned.

Good job GM!

Keep them coming.

I was driving home half asleep after a grave shift recently and going about 50 or so. Something dark and big was moving toward me in my lane and I could hardly see it. I absolutely jerked the wheel in a panick as fast and hard as I could about a quarter turn and the car about tossed me out of my seat if it wasn’t for the seat belt. I avoided the "giant empty trash bag blowing in the wind" and the front end was like it was on rails. I was amazed. Anything else I have ever owned, although I have never owned anything close to this car would have dove and slid. Love this car

Nothing that is a street legal production car for under $200K. I won a contest and got the opportunity to drive a McLaren in Monte Carlo which was the most incredible hour of my life but it was a $390K dollar car that I will never own and if I did would never drive on the roads in the US.

My experience in driving performance cars is limited to 4th gen Camaros and one ZL1, a Vette once but they didn't really let me go in it, but yeah nothing I've driven can compare to the ZL1.

LOL...yeah, infamous is more like it. Funny thing is that things have been very quite here since the verdict. It seems that other cities need a reason to act up and we gave them the reason they were looking for.
