ZL1 vs. ZL1 1LE opinions.

Hey guys, back in February I sold my 19 2SS in anticipation of getting my 2020 C8 delivered sometime in the summer. As we all know GM isn't building cars right now so at this point I'm already pushed back to a 2021 C8, and I may not even receive the car before winter sets in, so that puts me at about a year before I can actually enjoy my new Corvette.

Before the strike and COVID, I was probably going to get the Corvette about now, so as many of you can understand I'm starting to get 'the itch' with nothing in the garage.

I'm considering picking up another Camaro in the near future, but I would really like some opinions about the ZL1 vs. the ZL1 1LE. I love the look of the ZLE and I do occasionally track my vehicles so it wouldn't be a waste, but I also want to sometimes use the car to go to work/errands and do day or two day road trips. Is the ZLE too harsh and too track focused to be used comfortably on a daily basis?

In my 19 2SS I had the 10 speed auto. What are the opinions on the 10 speed in the ZL1 and the ZLE vs the 6 speed?

Overall, for someone not using this car seriously on the track, do you think the ZLE is livable and worth the trade offs or should I go for the ZL1 for the comfort and usability?


Thanks guys, I don't want anyone to think I want people to make the decision for me but I really value the input of people that actually live with these cars.
