I think it's a really personal decision. I, for one, really liked my 6th Gen's but, I was never able to see it being a long-term vehicle. For what I was after, I had to go and seek out a different...

If that's the case, then tell him to use the money saved between the two vehicles to knock that out and still get the SS. In this instance, I don't see the value in getting the ZL1.

I don't miss my ZL1 1LE in the slightest. I do, however, want to get a C5 or C6 Z06 and make that a fun twisties car. Although I'm probably going to buy a Porsche next, if I'm being honest. It's all...

So long as the SS has a built bottom end (rods and pistons) to go along with that, I'd encourage him to get that instead.

23lbs? Man, I must have forgotten how heavy wheels for American cars can be. Either way, I think they look great and are akin to five-spoke TE37s.

We are still missing key details about your setup and even still, it will all depend on the tuner/shop who is setting it all up and how comfortable they feel with pushing the car.

Skarkskin is a really nice color. My first suggestions for modifications would be the car payment mod or the driver mod. I wouldn't really spend time/money on anything else.

That will all depend on your supporting mods, fuel used, and how aggressive your tuner is. Power is easy to make, however. I hope you have a plan to put that power to the ground.

Also, what trim...

I had three 6th gen's so, I understand. I still have a soft spot for them but, I think I bought one too many as is. Congrats on your new purchase and I hope you enjoy it.

The only time I ever downshift into first, is if I know I'm coming to a stop. Otherwise, these engines make more than enough torque to power you out of a turn at those speeds in second gear.

Everyone has different tastes. While you want some more color in your standard plate, I'd prefer to have a monochrome plate as the standard.
