I agree with pretty much what all the others say, except one thing C7BOB mentioned: he says the Z51 without magnetic ride will not be comfortable. FALSE! It IS comfortable, just perhaps not quite as comfortable as with the mag ride. Again, I speak with 8100+ miles of real world experience. And I can honestly say the Z51 without the magnetic ride is way better than my 2002 Corvette with the adjustable shocks ever was! Again, go for some rides in both cars. Only you know what "comfortable" means to you.

But then again, based on what you plan to do with the car, skip the Z51 entirely and spend the money personalizing it or decorating the garage or on weekend trips with the misses!
