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.

Accelerates quicker to 60mph, after that the ZL1 will walk it down before the 1/4 and continue to leave it behind The C8 Stingray is a nice car but has nothing on the ZL1 really. If you were talking about a C8 Z06, that's a whole different story. I've owned a 2020 C8 Z51 Stingray and currently own a 2021 ZL1 and a 2023 C8 Z06/Z07 HTC. If performance isn't your only deciding factor then by all means, enjoy the C8 Stingray, its still a very fun car to drive.
