I suspect though that the ZL1 will outsell the GT500. It looks killer, and therefore has a wider appeal. For the people who really want performance to the nth degree - they can always mod.
Looks are subjective. I looked allll over a ZL1 a week ago at my local Chevy dealer. Sure, it looks nice. If I saw one drive by, I'd give it a look and think to myself it's a nice looking car. But I wouldn't stop what I'm doing to watch it until it was out of view. The GT500, on the other hand, yea, I would gawk at that one until it was gone. But that's just one opinion.

The only affective aero change is a deeper front splitter. A trip to the parts counter will remedy that for the '11/'12. The open upper/lower grilles on the '13 are for additional cooling. But whatever...
HIDs, yes. LED, no. 10-12 have standard bulb tail lights, even though they are sequential.
