I really like this but still unsure on resale in a few against a late C6.
The corvette always seem to retain more money long term. And also depends on how much we will be asked to pay for one in the UK.

More like a Caddy with rubber mats since it has the LSA engine smile Now if they do a ragtop version....

It will be a different buyer. Heavier car, more big GT and rather importantly two extra seats......

I Think witrh the Corvette, The Starting price is much more with the Camaro you could buy a cloth seat V6 Manual and from the outside make it look like a ZL-1, Just like the Mustang owners seem to do.

And Why not if you owned one stick some 20" wheels and a spoiler and most people would never know.

I have to say the Camaro looks great and the two extra seats are a plus. But that's also why I love the Vette because it has two seats and only sold with a V8....

I think that hits the nail on the head.

I've always been skeptical about the appeal of "high power" versions of ordinary cars.

That is f..ing awesome. Would make for a nice 4 seater runaround addition to the Z06.
But isn't the ZL1 option is supposed to be super basic delete everything spec for drag racing?
This is more like the Z06, a very nice road car.
ZL1 Camaro should be more like the Corvette Z06x; stripped out, race ready etc.
I still want one, whatever.
