Why do I need a Z07?

Absolutely. Don't get me wrong, the Z06 is an absolute fine car in any model or trim. I haven't had my Z07 at the track (yet) but the carbon ceramic rotors will pay for themselves even without track use in life expectancy and lack of brake dust. My previous ZL1 had enough brake dust for 11 cars and it was VERY tiring to keep clean.
I agree.. The lack of brake dust alone is absolutely awesome! Every time I clean my car my wheels are already clean. I scrub them with soap anyway, but it's not really needed. My Z51 package Stingray prior to this Z07 car was a HUGE difference. That brake dust was completely insane!

Guys, i think i found the sweetspot!! I ordered my 19 Z with the J57 options!! For those who dont know what J57 option is, well its the carbon brakes as a standalone option. I had a 15Z Z07, and CCB's absolutely worth every penny imo! But having to replace CUP'S 2 right from they start is kinda dumb! And i get the softer Z06 spring rates, as well as possibility to drop it lower than Z07 car on stock bolts. For my needs its a win/win situation! Add the stage 3 areo afterward and saved almost 8K in the end AND have the MPSS from factory!
