Let us know when you take a ride in a buddies’ ZL1.... then compare... Until then... this thread is useless.

A 2009+ Stage 4 WRX (I,E, intercooler and tune) is a lot quicker then average ZL1's magazine time of 12.5.

Drivers race for sure.

I have to agree - I had a 2009 Stage 3 WRX and that car was something else. I am still in love with that car. The handling was amazing, for me, it was probably the best handling car I've ever driven.

my bad, wrote this too quick. Meant the STi sedan. Not trying to be a troll, but I was just actually impressed with it. But then again it comes down to driver, alot easier to put the power down on the scooby than ZL1. Not saying it is more fun than a ZL1 just saying its quick.

Not a chance unless they're racing in snow, mud, etc.

Stock WRX's usually run mid 8s or slower in the 1/8 mile. A well driven ZL1 should be in the high 7s in the 1/8 mile.

And I seriouly believe the O.P. is just playing.

A "so so" driven ZL1 could get beat by a stage 4 WRX (by the way I owned a WRX with upgraded turbo, intercooler, etc).
But the ZL1 should trap 118 - 119 mph in decent air. With some tires that hook, it should be in the mid 11s easy.

I would love to own a automatic ZL1. I can guarantee I'd have that car in the high 11s (bone stock), mid 11s (drag radials).
