I'd call it firm, but certainly not bad. I drove a C5Z for years with race coilovers and T1 sways, so this is nothing! The shocks have near zero droop, and so that tends to bounce the rest of the car around if one wheel hits a low point, but even then not a huge deal. I am daily driving this sucker in a relatively rough road area and love every second of it.

Chassis so stiff that raising the rear pulls the front off the ground immediately lol!

THANKS guys, yeah I did the same. As soon as I saw a ZL1 1LE I knew it was the one for me given the cost!!!

I'm sure I'll be back in a vette soon enough (because I am insane), but for now I will just be hanging with you fine folks whole trying to regrow my mullet....




I was there for the purchase, and although I loved the Vette (and that great Laguana Blue color), the ZL1/1LE is such an amazing car. I know devnull had a little hesitation on getting rid of the Vette, but once he drove the ZL1/1LE version of the Camaro and then was able to get a fantastic deal at the same time, there was no way he was going to drive the Vette back home!
