That comment is subjective. Objectively if I had an extra 15K I would!
Some people (Myself Included) cannot afford a ZL1 (Would love to!) and the Insurance price because of the charger... So a 2SS 1LE is perfect.
Plus I am an Open Road Racer. Superchargers are terrible when it comes to Open Road Racing.
Many friends have switched from the Z06's to Grand Sports because of that. So there is a nitch market for them. And I don't care for Line Lock.

I will daily drive the 2SS 1LE all year round in Kansas City... (So, I am 1 of 20).
Track: 10 - 14 times per year.
Open Road Race: 4 times per year.
I love the 1SS 1LE but it needed few things added for me to sell the concept to the family:
Blind Zone Alert (Wish I had this on my 5th Gen)
Bose Audio (Nice to have)
Dual Zone Climate (Awesome feature)
Heated/Ventilated Seats (Heated is needed in Kansas. Cooled don't care, still nice to have in Kansas)
Heated Steering (Love to have this in Kansas)
Seat/Mirror Memory Package (Since Wifey will want to drive it too)
NAV - Don't care for but it is an optional add on just like the PDR
Interior Spectrum lighting (Don't care for but it comes with)
Wireless charging (Don't care for but comes with)
Universal Home Remote
Rear Park Assist (the sensors not the camera)
Auto-dimming Mirrors
Rear Cross Traffic Alert
TBH I wanted a 2SS... 'till the 1LE was released.
My racing side wanted the ELSD, 6 Piston Brakes, Recaro's, FE4 Suspension.
The 2SS 1LE solves it.
I can sell this idea to the wife.
The weight difference is so minimal that tracking or open road will not be effected.
Pricing in my area (Kansas City)
1SS 1LE - $46K
2SS 1LE - $49K (According to the dealer I am working with and the deal I am getting). That jump I can make.
Not $64K like a ZL1... (They have one on the lot.)
They don't have to mark up the 2SS 1LE because everyone that wanted a 1LE got a 1SS 1LE
They are still marking up ZL1 around here...
