Did you buy it or are you just looking at it? Black on Black!


I have actually looked at these ZL-1s myself. It's just hard to pick between this or the 2013 Shelby. Both are insane values but both have there pros and cons.

I have not bought yet. I to am torn between this and the Cobra. I think in the end I like the ZL1 better. I was reading people putting an intake and retune and getting 60hp. It rides really nice but feels heavy.

It will feel heavy. Its over 4,000lbs.. This is the reason I bought my Z. The power to weight ratio is horrible on the new muscle cars. The new corvette is awesome but (for the one I like) I would just drop a few dime's more and get me an italian sports car.... I mean really would you prefer to have a lambo/ferrari or a brand new chevy in you drive way.
