[QUOTE="TheFleshRocket, post: 16023348, member: 48535"] I'm window-shopping for a replacement for my '04 Cobra to do street and roadcourse duty. No solid-axle cars, so GT500s are out. Needs to be factory supercharged, so '15+ GT and GT350 are out. Needs to have a back seat, so the Vette and Viper are out. Which pretty much leaves the Camaro ZL1. The ZL1 is very impressive around a roadcouse, doing extremely well in Car & Driver's Lightning Lap. But most media / magazine tests show the ZL1 doing the 1/4 in the high 11s at low 120s. That's what pullied Cobras are supposed to run. Mine's got a (poorly tuned) TVS on it so it ought to be even quicker than that. So, I'm hesitant to go spending $50K+ on a car that might be slower (on the street) than my Cobra. What do you guys think? How's a street-driven ZL1 going to feel, power-wise, compared to a VMPed Cobra? [/QUOTE]
