I would support that argument.
I'm not an expert but I've owned the C7 Grand Sport, C7 Z06 w/ Z07 and now 2 ZL1 1LEs (M6 & A10). I also owned the 662hp 2013 GT500
When making the switch from ZLE M6 to an auto, I considered a Z06 w/ A8 so I test drove one again just to "remember".
It was not the car I remembered. The ZLE changed everything. I could not bear going back to the Z06. I know its a great handling car, but the ZLE is honestly considerably better.
Having said that, of course the Z06 is lighter and can pull greater lateral G's due to its lower center of gravity and grip... BUT, the planted feel and the turn in response and overall package of the ZLE is (IMO) noticeably better than the Z06.
TBD on the C8, I'm sure it will be amazing.
