So, saying all of this, explain why more of you aren't opting for SS1LE's??? It is a cheap and VERY effective track car and there is a lot of chat about the SS1LE being a more suitable street car, I for one am convinced. Having thought it over for the past ten days or so, really wanting a "nicer" car, in terms of creature comforts and the end all beat all power, and trans of the ZL1, is in the end, mostly unusable on the street. And while it is a faster car on the track, it does take a competent driver to accomplish that too. If you are truly interested in value OR that concerned with depreciation, the SS1LE is a very practical solution. One of the things I have enjoyed over the years is the competitive notion of posting track and autoX and even 1/4 mile times on par or better than that of more powerful and usually more expensive cars. Just a thought. I mean its a lot of fun to keep pace with GT3's and F430's in a lowly Cayman, how much MORE fun would it be to do it in a car that costs. 25% of those cars???
