Agreed. Like Ric and James said. I would add before I would ever consider replacing the F1FTY.

It is Not so easy to answer. At least for me. Officially we don’t have ZL1 over here. If it is a ZL1 as fifty edition, yes immediately. On the other hand, hell no. I would add a supercharger to mine. Than I have a ZL1 but just more comfortable.

Soleil, I think I feel the same. I love all the 6gens out there but haven’t seen a more well appointed and color combo on the FIFTY is hard to beat. It seems others agree.
But if there were a ZL1 FIFTY I would trade.... I suppose I have always added power to my fun cars....when I bought it, the SS was the quickest car I ever owned, but now I crave more power....

I have started a crate in my garage attic for the original parts I have modded, so in 50 years (lol) I can make it original again. I will have to make the attic access hole bigger when I finally put the Borla axle back on....😂

I'd keep the Fifty. Love the colors on the Fifty. I've added the Procharger, side skirts, and blacked out lights. Interested in the ZL1 wing but 4-5K is a little steep. It's fun to do the mods!

I went with the FIFTY ZL1/1LE option! Supercharged, ZL1 suspension, brakes, and side skirts. Plus the 1LE wheels. Plus I am still under 500 miles.

@Mrfixxit7, you’ve managed every orientation except right-side up.

Very cool car though. Do you plan to keep it low mileage or are you gonna put that suspension work to the test?

And.......Happy 1,000 pages Club F1FTY!!
