All the Corvettes I have had were twitchy in the rear. Partly because of the leaf spring design.

The SS 1LE does have a little sway to the rear-end though too because of the bushings back there. I am working on getting the ZL1 1LE solid rear cradle bushings soon and that should tighten things up.

If I must, I will go with BMR arms after that, but from what I understand the rear cradle bushings is where most of the play comes from.
Also, Edif, but everything equal, the GS really should be a faster car.

Sample size of one. I am fortunate in owning both a c7 GS Z07 and I bought a 1SS 1LE in February. The c7 has not been disconnected from the battery tender since the day I brought the 1LE home. It fits my DD needs much better. But to each their own.

Last week I test drove a C7 GrandSport automatic. My DD is "Bluie" pictured to the left. The Corvette felt more comfortable and the interior looked more expensive. Maybe because it only had 22 miles on it -it felt slower. It didn't sound any better/felt maybe like it cornered a little flatter than my 1LE. I will stick with "Bluie".

Ok so quick question. We see a ton of track time of the gs with the z07 package which has cup2s among others. Question is my brother just got a regular gs, which has mpss, how do u think his track times will compare to mine? It's a stick as well.

I’ve had a ‘17 & ‘18 SS 1LE and an ‘18 non-Z07 GS in between. No track time, but GS felt quicker.
