ZL1 or Z06

My wife has given me the green light for a second "hot rod". I currently have a 2018 Hot Wheels SS and I'm torn between a 2019 C7 Z06 and a 2019/20 ZL1. Time is running out on the Z06....as I do want a new version of the C7. (I'm just not impressed with the C8) In regards to the ZL1, I can wait to see what Chevy does with the Camaro and either snag the last of the Gen 6's in 2023, or maybe look at a new generation if they go that route. What should I be considering other then the obvious difference in price?

Thanx in advance,

ZL1 has a lot more tech and is a better platform to handle all that power. The ZL1 will also be more "rare".

I agree with ST1LE to get a Z06!! When the 2023s come out either trade or sell outright your 2018 Hotwheels SS unless it’s a keeper and get a new ZL1!��

Z06. You already have a Camaro.

Gorgeous Hot Wheels by the way....

Z06 no question. Only reason I'm in my Camaro is the occasional need for a back seat.

In my opinion both cars are "virtually" identical in HP and performance, but I would go with the Camaro ZL1, more comfortable and $20,000+ cheaper.

Z06, since you already have a 6 gen it seems almost silly to get another 6 gen, I mean if I had a ZL1 alongside my SS, the SS would never get driven again lol
