RWD is fun in the snow.

I don't get much snow here in El Paso.

I think the Volt is on a production hold for something. Maybe they are installing secret pockets for drugs. Oh BTW you can get a $4500 government refund for buying a $45,000 Volt.

Too much field stock. At least that's what we're told.

The ZL1 looks to be a nice package and it also seems you'll get quite a bit for your money.

I was in the market for a 2SS/RS Camaro back in 2009. I honestly didn't care for how cheap the interior seemed in that model. I went to the Dodge dealer and drove a Challenger and fell in love with it so that's what I ended up with. I've not looked at one since 2009 to know if they improved the interior quality, but i do remember reading they were going to do so.

The Camaro also feels like of weird to look out of. The side belt line is a bit high so you feel a little enclosed.

I doubt you're gonna find a dealer to let you test drive a ZL1, but if I were you I'd test drive at least a 2SS to get a sense of the car before plunking down any money.

Keep in mind, that 2013 Ford Mustang GT500 is coming to the show with 650HP and a new suspension and some other goodies. That's the one I have my eye on.

Well thank all of you guys for all the input,all good points,as i stated b-fore my wife n i love our z, n like some of u guys said there's not many z here in my small town,maybe 2or 3 370 but no nismos, plenty of cameros,so my question is do i trade my nismo for a zl1,i already drove a ss 6 speed year n 1/2 ago,big let down on interior, OR do wait 4 years to pay off some of my other toys, and then I M ABLE TO GET A GTR!!! what do u guys think/// thats a whole lot of car in my Book/// but is it worth the wait???

From what R&T said the ZL1 and GT-R are nothing like each other. So it is what you want. One thing to remember is that the ZL1 beat the GT-R's time at VIR. In a nut shell this is what they said about the two cars in their test drive. Oh a note here: when they did their test the temp was right at the temp limit Chevy has for the tires 40F. Chevy says not to use in temps below 40F. OK back to the eval. The ZL1 is big and bulky but handles extremely well. The driver drives the car and it may be beyond the abilities of some drivers. The GT-R feels like a video game. Handles great and makes decent drivers very good drivers. It is 4wheel drive so handles great in marginal weather. I don't know which I would take if I had $100,000 to spend. I would probably get a ZR1 vette.I don't think you will be disappointed whichever you take.
