I live in rural Florida. I have only ever seen one other ZL1 here (its mostly just dog turd squat trucks). I haven't seen it in months though, he must have moved. There are a few up in Jacksonville though. So last May I drove from Florida to the big loop national parks in Colorado, Utah and Arizona and back. I did not see one ZL1 the entire time.

I see one every time I go out to the garage. For some reason that's the only place I see it. Guess I need to get out more.

I've seen a couple ZL1's here in the San Antonio/New Braunfels TX area. I see 1000 Mustangs, a decent number of Camaros, and haven't seen any new GT500s or even GT350s

I've seen 1 ZLE and 1 ZL1 in the wild in the past 2.5 years (since I got my Mustang), not counting the two 6th Gen ZL1s I've seen at Cars and Coffee cruises.

I've also seen two 5th gen ZL1s here, but only at C&C.

They are a rare sight.

I've seen one '20 GT500 so far, but I don't drive everyday. And two C8s within a 3 day period a couple of weeks ago.

Previously, in my Mustang GT, I'm typically one of at least a dozen S550 GTs at C&C events and a similar number of S197 GTs. It will be nice to most likely be the only 6th gen ZL1 when they start back up.

Only seen 6 max over the years. That includes seeing the same one, 2 consecutive days in a row during rush hour. There is a white ZL1 with some pink highlights running along I355 here.

I have the only 1LE in my area and I haven't seen a 6 gen ZL1 either.

Here in the Los Angeles area, I've seen 1 other ZLE in the past year and that was at a C&C. I see lots of lower trim camaros and chargers/challengers though.

I think the preponderance of Challenger/Charger Hellcats vs ZL1s and GT350 is simple... people are not interested in tracking their cars, only a small % of owners of these very high HP muscle cars ever track them--also true of Corvette, M3/4, 911, etc.

The differentiator for the ZL1 and GT350 is handling performance from a great chassis and suspension. But they have significantly less HP than a Hellcat, Redeye, Demon.

The Hellcat, Redeye, Demon buyer wants to know their car has the MOST HP, even if it has relatively poor performance in turns, vs ZL1 and GT350.

The only reason I bought my ZLE was the world class exotic beating handling. I'm sure a Hellcat would be VERY fun to drive a few times but I would never buy one, it doesn't deliver the capabilities I need to justify the purchase.

Funny I had to run to Best Buy to grab something maybe a 4 mile ride, 1 red ZL1, 2 C8 Vettes, 1 C4 Vette.

I know of 3 6th gen zl1's (not including mine), that live around here, or I see them often enough that I assume they do.

there are no less than 4 ss's with atleast front end zl1 conversions, 2 of those the whole 9, wing and all.

I see a camaro of some sort, literally every day, multiple times. I feel like I'm being eat up by them around here lately.

Tons of nice cars here in the area, but over the last year, I’ve probably only seen 4-5 ZL1s.
