I was all set to get a C7 z51 at the end of the year, but the zl1 is just crazy stupid performance for the money. I don't know what to do now, nightfall grey metallic is looking pretty damn sweet.

I think you hit it on the nail, "the zl1 is just crazy stupid performance for the money".

Grand Sport has the looks/presence and handling
ZL1 has the power and comfort |

Don't forget, either.....most all Grand Sports and Z06s that have been magazine-tested, were sporting the $7000 Z07 package that included CC brakes, heavy aero, and sticky-sticky tires. Those items make a massive difference.
I would be curious to see a base model Grand Sport reviewed opposite a ZL1. I'm certain it would still have an edge...but I bet the decision wouldn't be so obvious... |

Lmfao. Two of my buddies I run with in the Corvette Club drive 17 Grand Sports. While they do get compliments many guys call them posers and ask why they didn't get the "real deal". "Can't afford the real Z06?" They are made fun of at almost every meet. Don't shoot the messenger. I'll be dropping the Vette off as soon as the ZL1 shows up!

FYI, I will say I am impressed with the ZL1. I've always liked Camaros. .
