I have a 2008 with the Z51 performance package. Wouldn't my car perform just as well as a GS? Wasn't the Z51 package the GS before Chevy made the GS? My vette with the Z51 came with the F1 tires and is lighter then a GS. It would be interesting to see a comparison between the Z51 and the GS.
Damn I hate people that own GS's

in reply to KneeDragr,
Thats if the people that own the GS "track the car" like you said, which is a very low percentage. You shouldnt get so upset that there is people out there that actually dont like the GS. Who cares really? If you have 1, and you like it- then good for you
I have a base coupe with Z51, i guess that must make me less of a man huh? LOL Im very happy with my car. My friend just bought a 2010 GS with 1500 miles, basically new, and i like it as well, but i wouldnt say his is better then mine or vise versa, who cares really? there both very fast cars, that most owners will NEVER see the full potential of what either car can do. At the end of the day......your GS, or the next guys Z06, or the neighbors ZR1.......are all......you guessed it....still a corvette. Just like my lowly base version! geeze oh pete!

I have to admit before I got mine they all looked the same to me. I really could not tell a ZR1 from a base vette. I did not know that 2005 - 2012 vettes all looked the same.
