1) The SS-1LE's arrival didn't surprise anyone.
2) The SS-1LE is aimed at a different customer for a different purpose.
3) My, yet to be built, 2SS didn't devalue in light of the new 1LE. Nor did any M6 SS. (See #2)

Compare that scenario to the ZL1-1LE.

1) Camo photos of this car have been circulating longer than anyone's ZL1 order. Big tires and all! The only surprise is the name so why didn't you wait?
2) The ZL1-1LE is far more track oriented than the SS-1LE and will be a punishing car to drive on the street with capabilities that can only be appreciated on a road course.
3) Triple threat vs single purpose. Especially in the case of A10 cars (see #2)
Well said sir! /thread
