And since there is no MXO option, and I would be down on quite a bit of power compared to a ZL1 then I would of course have to install a nice lopey aggressive cam at some point which is generally easier on the 6sp cars. 
If I were to go with the ZL1 though I would rather do the MXO as I do think that the 10sp looks to be a fantastic option. Truth be told by time I have 20-25k saved up for a down payment at the beginning of this next year then I am pretty sure that I will have talked myself into a ZL1 by that point... It will just be a weekend fun toy anyway, so why not? |
I agree with you...I too was enticed by the value the 1LE offers, and it was an even tricker decision for me because I knew I wanted the MN6 either way. I scoured the web for articles titled "too much horsepower," of which there is no dearth, in an attempt to talk myself out of the ZL1. But, in the end, that failed and I told myself, "you only live once!" which is a running theme on this forum. So if the ZL1 is in your budget...do it!!!
