The ZLE does look more aggressive, and maybe that's why it's less boring. I figured since I don't intend on tracking the car, and taking it to its limits on the street would be a fool's errand, the ZL1 was enough for me, that and the constraints on the 1LE track package across all trims was enough to keep me from the ZLE.
The limits really aren't higher, with of course the exception of the track of course. Its less boring because you feel the road....the regular ZL1 was more like being in an airplane taking off...you know you're going fast, you just don't feel it as much. I actually disliked the regular ZL1, a lot...I owned it 8 mos and only bothered putting just over 1200 miles on it. I did that in about 2.5 mos in the ZLE lol.
That being said, rides with the DSSV for a daily aren't for everyone; like the Z/28, most people don't prefer the ride on the street with it, its an acquired taste...but its not bad on the road at all imo, I like it.
