I noticed the same thing with my Z06. The ZL1 will run you out with the AC or heater.

I live in South Florida and the AC is good. I tend to start the car remotely when walking up to it so that the car can run for 30-60 seconds which makes a surprising difference when jumping into it in the middle of the summer. Once you get through the first 3 minutes, the AC starts to lower the fan. You’ll have no problems or complaints.

The A/C works as expected in a modern car. I like it cold, and paired with the vented seat, I rarely need to blast it 100% of the time. And if my fiance is in the car, the passenger side is usually luke warm anyway. Window tint (ceramic especially) will help keep that interior cold. GM did a good job with the shields under the car so the trans tunnel won't melt the right side of your body.

I think the AC in my ZL1 isn't all that great and I live in Nor Cal where it doesn't get all too hot. To combat the heat during the wave of hot days, I had the all the windows tinted (including the windshield) with a carbon ceramic tint at 70%. You can't even tell the windows are tinted which was the look I was going for. Having all the windows tinted helped a lot IMO. As I read in a earlier post, remote start it and have the settings blow in high and let it sit for 30sec to a min...helps a lot.

Im in the san fernando valley. The only problem ive had is on a 105+ Degree day i stupidly parked with the windshield facing the sun and after a couple hours it was like stepping into a blast furnace. The a/c worked beautifully and cooled the car to a comfortable temp in under 5 mins... but the vented seats heated up so much that it blew piping hot air across my back. Over my 30 min drive home i tried it maybe half a dozen times to no avail. It wasnt until the car cooled completely that the seats vented air that wasnt the same temp as the surface of the sun.

I have Llumar airblue 80 on both cars as well which drastically helps in keeping the cabin cool (especially when you live in TX). |

The AC is fine but the vents don’t distribute the air perfectly as it’s a sports car with limited realestate for mo-better vents.
