research the dsc controller module. seems to transform the car when you have mag ride even on a z07 package
Came here to say this.
I've got a '19 Z07 that I put ~30k miles on since I bought her new. All of those miles are street miles without the DSC controller as I didn't want to risk my warranty, but now that I'm out of my 3yr 36k it's on my short list of mods.
When it comes to DD'ing a Z07, it's doable. Strictly speaking, I don't DD my Z07, but that's mostly because of the weather. The PS4's I've got on her now don't like below freezing temps. As for the ride, I keep her in Sport mode and I don't have any complaints, and the roads in my neck of the woods are far from perfect. As many have said, the brakes are awesome, almost too good. There's been a time or two that I had to let up on the brakes because the person behind me couldn't stop as fast as I can. I would pass on the competition seats though, IMO they are too constraining for what is essentially a super GT car.
The seating is heavily dependent on your build. I've had the comp seats in both my Corvettes and I absolutely love them. They were actually one of the top two criteria (the other being a manual) I had for the GSCE I eventually bought.

True enough. My NFL defensive tackle sized *** definitely doesn't fit in the comp seats well.
Again, I want to thank everyone, as you gave me a lot to think about, which allowed me to do more research. I failed to mention, that the Z06 is for my wife. We test drove it just a few hours ago. I was able to personally experience exactly what everyone was talking about. However, the Z07 ride, wasn't much different than we were used to, from our 2012 Camaro 2SS. My wife prefers the race car feel, the way it hugs the road, and the brakes are crazy responsive.
@Jeff V. was spot on when he said, "So you're really the only one that can answer the question of what's 'too rough'."
When I met my wife in 2008, she drove a 2007 Corvette, which we sold shortly after we met. However, we are now the proud owners of a 2017 Z06 Z07 Convertible in Watkins Glen Gray. This is an amazing car. It will completely smoke our 2SS, which was modified.
Thank you @Richard06 and Ann for a great car, a great deal, and a great transaction!!!! From a 2007 To a 2017 Z06 Z07 Convertible!!!!
I have the Z07 with CUP 2 tires. It's not streetable, plain & simple. I dreaded driving it to / from the track. My wife went for a ride once & only once.
Then I paid $350 for the suspension program upgrade & put MPSS tires on it. Now it's barely street-able & trackable.
I run the CUP2's or MPSS's at the track.. Depending on the forecast. and I can drive home.

That is what I found as well but some say they like it that way.
Another Watkins Glen Gray in Arkansas (Cabot area). I was in the same situation as you with trying to decide on the Z07 package. I chose not to. A couple weeks ago the wife and I did a track day at Ozarks International Raceway in Missouri. I kinda wished we had the Z07 package for that, but mostly I'm happy without it. Maybe we will run into you at a cars and coffee or something.
enjoy!
