Love it!

I traded in my 2010 SS/RS for a 2012 CTF ZL1 about a month ago and there is no comparison IMHO. No disrespect to any SS owners they are great cars but this thing is on a whole different level. Couldn't be happier!

I am in the same boat, i got rid of 2 2011 ss's for the AGM 2013 zl1. I still have about 900 miles left on break in but the car just wants to go. I just love everything about it.

Here's one for you, traded my 2012 Grand Sport Corvette w/ headers & x-pipe, dyno 419rwhp for a 2013 Black/black ZL1, absolutely love it! Only have 50 miles on it so far as it has not stopped raining here but I did test drive a used 2012 ZL1 first & got to put that through a few 40-100mph punches. I think these 2 cars would have been even on speed.

Same here. I traded in a 2011 2SS/RS Vert for a ZL1 Vert.

I keep telling people that the ZL1 is a whole different animal.

I'll jump on that bandwagon too. I had my 2010 2SS/RS for about 15 months until I made the leap. Absolutely no regrets. The ZL1 is an animal, a wild and domesticated one.

Well I have no comparison, only driven the ZL1, no SS or Vette experience to speak of...

But the car is pretty F'n AWESOME.

So congrats to all on the wise choice

That's awesome!

Happy to hear that the ZL1 is living up to your standards and some! May it bring you satisfaction for many years to come.

All the best,
