Having owned C4 ZR1s since 1991, my love of C4 ZR1 cannot be questioned. I spent 22 hours (11 hours to Jacksonville and 11 hours back to DC) in my son's 2019 GS with 7 speed manual. Yes. I missed rifle-bolt shifter in my Z and F16 canopy like panoramic view 360 degrees and solid revving LT5. However, steadiness of longer wheelbase, solid chassis with or without the top, razor precise steering and uncanny suspension with magnetic shocks were impressive.
I am in the line at a local Chevy dealer for 2021 not to replace my 94Z but to augment my 94.
