My New 2013 VR ZL1

It's amazing how much better this car is, so much better than my 2010 2SS/RS.

Love the suede interior and sunroof... 2 things I didn't have in my 2010....

I must say though, my 2010 was faster. I'm use to the, getting slammed in the seat when I punch it.... But all that will change in time. Lol

I know what you mean. My last two cars:

2006 300C SRT8 - 643rwhp = 10.70's @ 128.5mph
2010 CTS-V - 609rwhp

The 580hp even with 6m and 3.73 rear gears feels a little calmer. Then again if I ever get the urge I know where to find a few quick ponies for around $4k (cam, pulley, tune, headers).

Nice Z btw!
