Visual differences between the base and Z51 model
Other than the wheels and the rear spoiler, what, if any, are the visual differences between the base and Z51 model?
Trying to decide which one to order.
I like the look of the Z51 wheels and rear spoiler, but don’t need the harsher ride (I’m guessing) that the bigger rims will provide.

Get the magnetic shocks and the harsher ride is no longer an issue. Puts up better handling at the same time.
Not bad for $1700.

To answer your question, there are no visual differences between the Stingray and the Stingray with Z51 other than larger brake rotors, larger wheels and tires, different wheels and the rear spoiler. The Z51 rear spoiler will become available as a stand alone option so some with the non-Z51 Stingray will have the Z51 spoiler.
The Z51 is going to ride a little more harsh than the base. Between the different shock package and the larger wheel/tire combo it will have an impact. As noted, the MSRC suspension will go a long way toward taking care of that.
