Hi

I should be closing a deal on a 02 coupe auto within a couple of days just going through the details now.

The vette has all of the options that l would have ordered if l bought it.

What should l expect with the ZR1 package and perf ratio 3:15 compared with the base model. It hs no miles and a GM warranty.

The performance axle ratio will give you much better 1/4 mile times than the standard ratio.
 
With the Z51 you get stiffer springs, bigger sway bar, power steering oil cooler and maybe some other stuff I do not know. For instance, the front sway bar is very closed to the Z06 in diameter. 3.15 is great to add more power to the beast with a minimal impact on gas mileage. From what I have read other guy get at 30-31 mpg and I can get 27-29. My friend has the 2.73 and find it slow to start. I love that combo. The only thing you need to do to change that daily driver in a track car is to put on your helmet.
