c7z. this is easy, let’s logically eliminate.

*never buy 1st year chassis
that leaves the other 2 and come on, a c7z vs ZL1 1LE...?

None of the three! Happy with my 2017 ZL1 so far and can’t afford them either!

That Z06 is one badass looking car! Holy crap that looks sick. I couldn't see going with a first year C8 over that Z06.

I tried, but just don't fit the vette but if genuinely struggling between the two, I would pick the ZLE if I was regular genuine track rat...otherwise you cannot go wrong with the Z06. While I drive the A10, between these two I would get the M.

Regardless of which one you choose, there are no real wrong answers.

I would not buy a high performance car like the C8 in the first year or two of production.

It is a tough choice between the C7 which I think is great looking, but so is the Camaro.

For me it would boil down to prices, value, mileage, and what you will be using the car for.

According to Big Eddy P, the C8 Z51 outperforms the C7 Z06 "in every way."

ergo ... C8 please

If I didn’t have my ZLE I would probably choose it regardless.

In south TX C7s are a dime a dozen and I see a ZO6 once a day. Gen6 camaros about the same but only see one other ZL1 maybe once a month. A ZLE I have seen maybe 3 in the last year.

I would pick ZLE A10!
