That being said, there is so much other goodness in the Z51 package that its a must have.
Oil, diff and trans coolers
dry sump,
etc.
That's great to know!

I definitely think I'd spring for the Z51 just to have those features. Will the magnetic shocks only be available on the Z51 or will it be an option on the base?

I've read the Z51 starts you off with Bilsteins, but you can add the magnetics as an option. Hopefully they make the magnetic an option for the base car too.

Why would they not make magnetic an option for base? The C6 has that option

I just wasn't sure how they were going to structure the options this go around.

Seems like just the base stingray with the magnetic ride would be a great choice for a car that not tracked or beat to hell at ZDayZ.

C&d claims you have to get z51. We will have to wait and see.
