The car is far more stiff than the SS 1LE, ZL1 (each in track/sport mode). And this new ZL1 1LE is going to be as stiff, or more than that. The Camaro Team doesn't want any dissatisfied customers...so they are trying to make as clear as day that the ZL1 1LE is a very, very stiff ride, and unless you're the type of track/sports car enthusiast who understands that...it will not be a pleasant ride.

I have it have, and don't mind it at all. LOL

Once you get past the initial force to move the dampers it is relatively subtle. I daily drive the car, in fact I drive it all over the country for track events, autox etc. It's not super unpleasant, but it is rougher than most folks will want to deal with.
Given the DSSV on the Gen6 ZL1 1LE and the hard mounted suspension, I suspect it will be similar to the gen5 Z/28 experience. Good for GM to warn folks. I hope to be able to give a first hand ride review sometime later this year!

Ones more thing to keep in mind, the roads you have when you drive the car, where we are at there good roads, if you live in a big city and there not in good shape, well you will hate the ride.
