Obviously, nobody's driven one yet - but the ELSD is magical, according to magazines of the Stingray...and they've recalibrate MR for this particular setup. Of course, as always, a person can modify his/her own car to keep up...but there's that subtle factor of the driving "feel"...and I have a hunch that it's going to be effortless to drive this car ridiculously fast.


Well, consider that even though they're forged...the wheels are much wider than the standard LT setup, there's additional track coolers, and the brakes are 4-piston Brembos up front standard. Then there's unique some aero components, too (marginal weight).

It all adds up pretty quick.
Not saying it will be easy....Just that MRC seems like a budget buster for a 1LE package, especially if it's different than the MRC setup available as an option on the SS....Will be interesting to see how prices compare as options available now on an SS with similar ones on a 1LE...better???....in a pre-made 1LE package....Just thinking, minus MRC costs, you can add a lot of other mods.

Definitely a convenience having it already set-up on the 1LE....but DIYing can save money on mods....
