Is now the time to consider a C8? I love my ZL1, but I'm always looking at what other options are out there. C8s are now abundant and being priced thousands under MSRP. In addition, Chevy is offering a $2,500 rebate for current 2010 and newer Camaro owners.

I test drove a 2LT C8 with the Z51 package this morning. The dealership has it priced 5k under MSRP. The car is nice, but I'm not sure I would enjoy the car long term as I've always been a manual guy. On top of that the 150 hp difference is noticeable. However, the C8s mid engine design and lower weight makes it accelerate just as fast if not faster.

Curious if any other ZL1 owners are or have considered a C8.
