I have 13000 spirited street only miles on my barebones LT1 and still love every mile. Oh and if your interested in some 1/4 mile action, I just made a pass at the track with drag radials on the rear, E85 and a LT2 intake and ran 11.60 with the fabulous 10 speed auto. ordered my 2021 LT1 and paid 35990.00 like the song says "cant touch that"
1LEs are definitely not rough riders. I've owned several sports cars that ride a lot rougher. MRC makes the car ride pretty good and handle too. The 1LE does have dusty brake pads. I'll give you that. And the 1LT is probably a better car for those who only want to drag race, but not for those that want something that can really handle and brake.
