Truth or Dealer BS?

Saw a ZL1 at a local dealership so I stopped by to check it out. Solid black and beautiful. A young dealer came out and was hitting me with everything he had to trade in my SS for the ZL1. He told me that they make 3 different types of ZL1s and this one had 610hp and they only made 250 of em?!?!?!? Never heard of such a thing but was kind of currious if this jack waggon knew what he was talkin about or was making crap up.

He was thinking of the COPO's with 3 diff engine combos or they were also available to purchase with all 3 engines included with the car if I remember correctly. Only 69 built.

Exclamation Actually...

Sounds as if he is mistaking the production ZL1 with SLP's versions when you said he mentioned the 250 being produced it could be a ZL from SLP. But I still think he is a dipstix.

I agree with Lengedary Umbra. I believe he was talking about SLP's ZL's. I think SLP has 575,585,600 something and I think they may also have a 700 hp version. Not sure. Do you have any pics??

Never trust the dealers. Some are not being malicious, they are just spouting off stuff they just don't know. I have argued with a few of them on different specs on different cars. They just get pissed when you prove them wrong.
