Default ZR1 Front Lift Poll (yay or nay)?

I'm ordering my 3rd C8 and never had Lift because I always had the base plastic splitter. I'm getting the ZR1 AERO now and at $3k I'm on the fence!

'Front lift adjustable height with memory, includes (TR7) automatic headlamp leveling
.
Post in the comments if you have the carbon fiber AERO package or not.

You've already heard my opinion, but to me, any of the widebody cars with aero (extended splitter) need front lift. Could you get by without it? Probably, by taking any sharp inclines slow at an angle, but all it takes it one time hitting something and you'll wish you had it.

This isn’t what you asked but I would think anyone investing in a ZR1 would expect at least the basic amenities. In that $ territory why skimp?

I skipped the front lift on my C8 Z06 with the CF front splitter. Have never needed it. Will skip it on the ZR1 as well.

Probably depends on where you live - or as they say, YMMV.

Had the front lift system on my Aventador - glad I did. Came in handy many times.

have a ZR1 with ZTK with a lift NEVER use it. had a z06, an e-ray and 3 stingrays. again never needed it. people on this forum get mad AF for some reason when you say you don't need it, but you don't need it unless you have some insane driveway
