We'll see.

Who cars about the wow factor. The competitors just beat the GT350R while costing less money. The competition is not defined by what is on the window sticker. Its defined by the stop watch.

I can't justify driving a GT350 when a car costing 20K less matches or beats it!
And yet, the GT350R is still more desirable by most with the exception of chevy fanboys. There are plenty of cars more expensive both that are slower...yet carry more clout. The GT350R is still seen as something very special while the Zl1 is a kick ass factory car (just not as special).

The competition today seems to be arbitrary.

I can't justify buying either! I couldn't justify spending $5k-$10k more for a 2SS over my GT. When it comes down to money, a foxbody is going to wipe the floor with everything when it comes to $$/performance. That doesn't mean I'm going out any buying one.

And....again, the GT350R actually beat the Zl1 in this head to head.
