Very true. I toyed with the idea of getting this car, but the M5 is so much more versatile and almost just as fast.

While the M5 is almost as fast, when you say versatile you mean for DD duty right?

If so I agree, but if it's anything but.. this car is the deal of the century! :P

Yes, for daily driver and all around fast car. My next car will be more sports focused, and may not even be as fast as my M5.

If you get this car it’s as a second car not your only car. Too impractical depending on where you are going and who’s with you.

I agree. I was going to go back to a GTR, but I have settled on a regular ZL-1. Just have to sell my M5 first. My buddy just got a Blue ZL-1 and it is a way nicer and cooler car than my C7 Z06 vert was.

It’s the real deal. Power is insane. Handling is amazing. No lift shift feature works really well. Brakes are awesome. Would buy again for sure. I think its faster than a stock F10 M5.

The ZL1 1LE only comes in 6 speed. This car in 6th gear just goes when you step on the gas. No downshifting needed unless you are doing a qualy lap.

GM should put the A10 tranny in there though.

Man that thing has got to be awesome to drive and engine note sounds awesome I'm sure. Probably one of the most under the radar best cars one can buy brand new right now. I've only ever seen one on the road so far. The 1LE I mean. Congrats! Please post more media when able.

I will. You can adjust exhaust to stealth mode if desired and this thing has Apple car play. <—- What? Tires need to go. It has Goodyear track tires. I need some Michelins MPSS or 4s tires.

How’s the ride on the street; (not that this car is designed for that purpose). I’ve read that the spool shocks make for a rough ride, street wise.
