Default New in So Cal

I am considering a new vette, standard model or GS and am here seeking info on the differences.
I have not had any recent hands on activity of a vette. in the 60s I street raced a 65 FI out of LB.
My currant vehicles are a 89 GTA vert and a 86 Pontiac GP 335 RWHP, I canyon carve both.
